The Clown Is Down by Thomas Hall · June 28, 2013 Matt Borne, the original Doink the Clown, passed away today at the age of 55. No word on the cause yet. Borne wrestled at the first Wrestlemania against Ricky Steamboat and as Big Josh, a lumberjack character, in the early 90s in WCW. That’s rather sad. PDFPrint
That’s a shame. Always enjoyed the original Doink. Also thought the Borne again gimmick was good.
