It is being reported that Keri DeMott was killed in a car accident last Saturday.
Keri is the daughter of former WWE trainer Bill DeMott. Little details are known other than another car veered into hers on a motorway, causing a head-on collision. Keri was killed in the 12:30am crash in Orlando, Florida.
Shane 'The Hurricane' Helms is the only person within the industry to have spoken publicly about the incident, stating that Bill was "going thru a tragedy that no one should have to", and it was "completely heartbreaking".
DeMott got his big break in WCW with various comedy gimmicks, including General Hugh G. Rection, the leader of the Misfits In Action stable. He is best known for being Goldberg's first ever opponent, starting his famous winning streak. DeMott competed briefly in WWE before being side-lined with a shoulder injury. He had been working as a trainer for over a decade before caving into pressure to resign. Multiple allegations, some with photos, surfaced online complaining about DeMott's training style. After an internal investigation, DeMott was cleared, but DeMott still stepped down voluntarily. His situation was re-enacted in an angle on Raw recently.
Our thoughts go out to the DeMott family at this time.
