All Elite Wrestling took to Twitter on Wednesday evening to announce that Günter Zapf, a member of their German announce team, has passed away. The company wrote,
“With great sadness, AEW mourns the passing of Günter Zapf. A member of AEW Germany’s announce team for many years, he will be dearly missed.”
Zapf, a former cornerback for the Munich Cowboys, was just 67 years old. He worked for WWE from 2002 to 2013 and also did some announcing work for Lucha Underground.
