TMZ reports 26 year old professional bodybuilder Dallas McCarver died Monday night (Aug. 21) at his home in Florida. McCarver was in a relationship with WWE Superstar Dana Brooke.
The site spoke to Brooke, who told them McCarver’s death is believed to have been caused by choking on food. He was found unconcious by a friend shortly after she’d spoken to him on the phone. Dana said he told her he was about to make dinner before telling her “I love you” and saying goodbye.
McCarver was also known as “Big Country”, a fitting nickname for a 6’ 1”, 300 pound man who excelled in the weight room and has been winning bodybuilding competitions since starting on the circuit at age 21.
Brooke, a fitness competitor herself, told TMZ McCarver would want his fans to stay strong.
On behalf of everyone in the Cageside Seats community, we extend condolences to the family, friends and fans of Dallas McCarver.
