Wrestler Joe Doering has died at age 44 after a battle with brain cancer, Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling confirmed. Doering was best known as an All Japan and independent star and was a two-time AJPW Triple Crown Champion. He also wrestled in the U.S. with TNA/Impact as part of Violent by Design during his career. Colleagues and promoters remembered his toughness, noting he kept wrestling through multiple cancer battles and was a fan favorite in AJPW during the 2010s.
