In advance of his burial, Kevin Lawler, brother to the late star, shared a touching picture of Christopher’s custom-made casket which not only bears the sigil of the Pittsburgh Steelers, but also that of his Grandmaster Sexay alter-ego. It is indeed a work of art.

Brian Christopher was a former 26-time USWA Unified Heavyweight Champion and best known in the then World Wrestling Federation as part of Too Cool with Scotty 2 Hotty and Rikishi.
It is with thanks and an extremely heavy heart that the professional wrestling world lets go of such a talent that was taken too soon. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Lawler family at such a trying time.
Thank you, Brian. Rest in Peace.
