 Former Southern California pro-wrestler, and member of the band Foreign Object, Stephan DeLeon passed away on April 6, 2004 from injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident.
Stephan DeLeon was considered by many to be one of the top independent wrestlers of the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, who frequently teamed with (and wrestled against) Riki Ataki and SoCal Hall of Famer Louie Spicolli. Stephan also wrestled on many WWF tapings, including facing such notables as the Rougeau Brothers, and was even shaved by Brutus “The Barber” Beefcake.
On April 6, Stephan was traveling on the 405 freeway when his motorcycle was struck by another vehicle, causing him to lose control and hit the center divide. When he hit the center divide, the impact caused his helmet to come off, and threw him into oncoming traffic.
Services for Stephan DeLeon will be held Saturday April 10th at:
Chapel of the Flowers
Forest Lawn Cemetery
1712 S. Glendale Ave.
Glendale, CA 91205-3320
The service is at 9:30 AM.
All of Stephan’s wrestling friends are invited to attend. According to Stephan’s brother, Stephan used to love the show Giant Robot and owned a 5’ tall Giant Robot. His request was if he ever was to pass away was to be buried with it, and it will be done.
For more information on the services contact Michael Mirabal at mirawho@cybcon.com.
Everyone at SoCal Uncensored would like to send our thoughts and prayers to Stephan’s friends and family at this time of loss.
