The Rock and former WWE announcer Jim Ross reacted to Snuka's death on social media:

Snuka died shortly after a judge in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, ruled himย unfit to stand trial, citing health reasons, in connection with the 1983 death ofย Nancy Argentino.ย According to CNN.com'sย Kevin Conlon, Snuka had been charged with third-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter after the Lehigh County district attorney's office re-examined his case.

In July, Snukaย joined a lawsuitย against WWE alleging the company provided inadequate medical care and failed to properly inform wrestlers of the long-term effects of neurological injuries.
