Jim Ross has confirmed reports that Eddie "Umaga" Fatu did indeed suffer a heart attack last night. F4WOnline.com has noted that last night, Fatu fell asleep watching television, and then his wife found him shortly thereafter not breathing with blood running from his nose. At that point she rushed him to the hospital where he was then placed on life support.
According to a source I just spoke with, Fatu apparently suffered another heart attack after the decision was made to take him off life support, and following that heart attack, he was gone.

Most likely drug overdose. He was released from WWE this past June because he violated the wellness policy and refused to go into rehab from what I've read online.

It might not be steriods. Remember the wellness policy tests not just for roids, but other drugs as well. His death is sad though.
