“Without Him, We May Never Have Gotten the Attitude Era”: 62-Year-Old WWE Legend and Zelina Vega Join Fans in Mourning Over the Saddening Demise of the Legendary Jerry Springer

The world has lost yet another gem, and it is Jerry Springer. A popular icon and controversial figure in the entertainment industry took his last breath yesterday. Some recognize him from America’s Got Talent, while others from Judge Jerry or The Price Is Right.

But everyone knows him from the hit talk show of all time, “The Jerry Springer Show”, which ran on television for 27 long years. He also served as mayor of Cincinnati in 1977. Courtesy of his illness, a month ago, he had to stop his latest project, which was hosting a folk music show on a local Cincinnati radio station.

He was also a part of multiple WWE TV appearances many years ago. The Twitter world rose to pay its respect to the late iconic figure after the devastating news broke out.

Jerry Springer was suffering from pancreatic cancer

TMZ was the first to notify the world of Springer’s death on April 27. According to the report, a family member told the media house that he was “battling a “brief illness.” A couple of months ago, he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. His illness had got worse this week. On Thursday morning, he peacefully left for his heavenly abode.

The popular talk show host was also a notable figure in WWE. In 2015, he hosted WWE Too Hot For TV show. Plus, he guest-hosted an episode of Monday Night RAW in February 2010. Fans will remember his epic segment with ‘The Bella Twins’ on a September 2014 episode of RAW, where he acted as a mediator between the two sisters!

Everyone loved and respected him, be it a fan or a celebrity. When TMZ broke out the news online, celebrities and fans shared their heartfelt condolences on social media platforms.

WWE personalities Zelina Vega and Vince Russo expressed their sympathies on Twitter.

Zelina Vega felt short of words on hearing the devastating news. Therefore, she could only use two words to share her condolences on social media.

In his tweet, former WWE head writer Vince Russo highlighted how the 79-year-old late star helped to inspire WWE’s Attitude Era. He confessed that he and ‘Fast’ Eddie Ferrara, former WWE writer, would draw in ideas from his talk show to build storylines and plots for WWE and how it helped the old WWE stand out from the new WWE.

In addition, many pro wrestling fans supported his chain of thought and commented the same about the late celebrity.
