R.I.P ECW Original Hunter Q Robbins III Passes Away

[LionDen]

Robin Hunt aka Hunter Q Robbins III passed away over the last day.

Robbins worked primarily as a manager in the original ECW and was actually the manager for Sabu when Sabu made his ECW debut. He portrayed a snotty heel manager, often cutting promos with a condensending British accent. He managed both The Super Destroyers and The Suicide Blondes when they had ECW Tag Team Championship runs for the company. Robbins also managed Jimmy Snuka for the promotion and was often derided by fans with the chant "K-Mart Suit", knocking his fashion sense. Although he worked primarily as a manager, Robbins did get into the ring from time to time, including teaming with Snuka against Tod Gordon and Davey Boy Smith and competing in a Battle Royal at UltraClash '93.

After his time with ECW, I believe Robbins also promoted some independent events in the Northeast. Robbins had not worked in professional wrestling for many years but was very involved in independent film. A short science fiction film he directed Paradox, picked up a number of awards at film festivals last year. He had also produced a number of other independent films over the last decade.
