Personal life
Bailey's father, Joseph Bailey, ran the Bad 2 the Bone Wrestling promotion in Kentucky, until his death from cancer on June 16, 2013.[2][28]
In September 2006, Bailey was arrested and charged with possession of cocaine and drug paraphernalia in the first degree, attempted burglary in the second degree, and criminal mischief in the third degree. He was sentenced to one year in prison and was released on parole on August 31, 2007. Two months later, Bailey and another man were arrested while attempting to steal a 27-inch Samsung television from a Wal-Mart in Bardstown, Kentucky. Bailey was admitted to the hospital shortly afterward due to injuries suffered during the arrest. After pictures of Bailey's mugshot showing him covered in blood were released to the public, a local activist group held a vigil and filed a complaint to the town of Bardstown. While Bailey was only charged with a misdemeanor, his arrest resulted in his parole being revoked and he spent two years in prison. Bailey was released in December 2009.[29]
Death
Bailey was found dead on August 30, 2010, having died in his sleep.[1][30][31] Prior to his death, he had complained of headaches and numbness in his hands.[31] The cause of death was later determined to be due to a brain aneurysm, caused by complications due to multiple concussions and traumas to the brain.[31] His brain was expected to be donated for research at Boston University.[31]
