Translation of wXw’s post on X:
“We say goodbye “Bad Bones’ John Klinger. John Klinger was a defining wrestler at wXw over a period of ten years. He won all the major titles in wXw, including 16 Carat Gold as well as Shortcut to the top. In his nearly 450 matches, he worked hard to thrill his fans. John died at 40, far too young, just before his planned retirement. We wish his friends and family strength during this difficult time.”
