TMZ is reporting that legendary singer and WWE Hall of Famer Ozzy Osbourne has passed away at 76 years old.
The Osbourne family issued the following statement:
"It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.
Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis."
Osbourne, who just performed his farewell concert a few weeks ago, was inducted into the 2021 WWE Hall of Fame class.
Osbourne appeared in the corner of The British Bulldogs when they won the WWF Tag Team Championship from Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake at Wrestlemania 2 in 1986.
In 1994, Osbourne's No More Tears was used by ECW to promote the first-ever Cactus Jack vs. Sabu match:
