The former defensive lineman for the University of Maryland was from Mays Landing
His tragedy was the second in months for pro wrestling: Weeks before, wrestling superstar Owen Hart had died in a 90-foot plummet during a stunt in Kansas City.“Nevertheless, Droz maintained a championship mindset and lived every day to the fullest even though he was unable to move from the neck down for the past 24 years,” his family wrote. “His own words sum up his relentless positivity in the midst of adversity: ‘There is always another day.
“‘Droz’ embodied the spirit of perseverance and determination through adversity, and our hearts go out to his family,” the Broncos said in a statement. “The cameras just happened to be zooming in, and they caught me spraying the center,” Drozdov said. “People kind of tripped out about that, and it was all over the news.”
. He sent a tape of a workout to WWF wrestling magnate Vince McMahon, who signed Drozdov to a developmental contract. One of his Maryland teammates joked that pro wrestling “may be a little too civilized for Droz.”“Now I understand why people in the business get really upset when people say it’s fake, because it’s the farthest thing from fake in this world,” Drozdov told The Sun in 1998.
