FMW legend Seiji "Tarzan" Goto has passed aged 58, according to a report from F4WOnline.com. Goto is reported to have died following a battle with liver cancer.

Goto started his career in sumo before joining the world of professional wrestling and is noted for his hardcore style in which he wrestled in the first-ever no ropes exploding barbed wire deathmatch in 1990.

Like many Japanese wrestlers, he toured extensively in North America and competed in ECW in July 1996, facing Axl Rotten twice, including at the Heat Wave special.

WNS extended our deepest and heartfelt condolences to Goto's friends and family.
