Former WWE Star Forced To Declare Bankruptcy

Former WWE Star Forced To Declare Bankruptcy

Jacques Rougeau was a notable heel for WWE during the 90s, and while he has been away from the spotlight for over two decades, he has remained involved in the business as a promoter and trainer. However, after recently revealing he was in significant debt having neglected his business due to his wife Nathalie’s cancer battle, he has disclosed in a new interview that he actually went bankrupt at the age of 65 last week, due to his company owing $70,000.

“I put my work aside, and I just took care of my lady. And so I fell back in the hole again … So now I was down like $70,000. So just about last week, my company that I had for 40-some years, I went bankrupt.”Jacques Rougeau

The second-generation wrestler initially made his name as part of the Fabulous Rougeaus tag team alongside his brother Raymond. Yet it was as The Mountie that he truly became a star, memorably working against the likes of Roddy Piper, The Big Bossman, and Bret Hart in WWE. Still, he would end up reverting to a tag team specialist in the mid-90s, working with Pierre Ouellet, now known as PCO, as The Quebecers in WWE and The Amazing French Canadians in WCW.
