We, at Revolution Pro Wrestling are absolutely heartbroken to report the loss of our dear friend Kurtis Chapman.

We watched Kurtis grow from a child to a young man who loved professional wrestling and continued to excel in all aspects of his life.

One of the most gifted technical wrestlers, charismatic characters and magnetic personalities.

He will never be forgotten.

"Mad Kurt" was a professional wrestler who made his name on the independent ciruit in the United Kingdom, and was well known for his social media antics that brought smiles to wrestling fans continiously. He would compete in other British promotions such as PROGRESS and IPW while also appearing in GCW, OTT and more.

Throughout his career, Chapman faced off with names such as Will Ospreay, Matt Cardona and more after beginning his time in the squared circle at 18 years old. He last competed back in June, where he would capture the RevPro Arthouse Championship.

As of this writing, the circumstances surrounding Kurt's tragic passing have not been disclosed.

All at Fightful express their deepest condolences to Chapman's family and friends during this difficult time. May he rest in peace.
