We are sad to report on the passing of Emily Doyle. 1980’s wrestling fans might remember her as GLOW Wrestling’s Mt. Fiji. Doyle was confined to a wheelchair during the last decade due to health issues stemming from diabetes.

Farewell to my longtime pal Emily. Back in the day her @GLOW Mt. Fuji was as popular as Hogan. She made a giant impact on televised pro wrestling. #rip #mtfugi #glow pic.twitter.com/JwFy3OS95B
