4) THE BLUE BLAZE
The most tragic entry of this or any Ten Things list, Owen Hart was a veteran of the WWF when he began masquerading as the superhero Blue Blazer. In order to simulate flying, he was set to zip line down to the ring at the beginning of a pay-per-view match, when his harness malfunctioned and Owen fell to his death. The resulting tribute episode is one of the most heart-rending wrestling programs I’ve ever seen, with good reason. The comic book Blue Blaze is Spencer Keen, one of the most minor Golden Age Timely/Marvel Comics characters, with super-strength, invulnerability and (for some reason) a pair of large pistols.
