This is one of the more sad stories that we’ve reported in a while.

According to a report from Yahoo! Newsa 2-year-old child in Jefferson County, Missouri, was killed after a man used the “Batista Bomb” on her. Addie Cook died on May 26, after her mother’s boyfriend allegedly performed the move, causing her to sustain traumatic injuries.

Richard Gamache Jr, 24, has been booked for abuse and neglect of a child, while the mother, Cheyenne Cook, 19, has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child.

WWE issued the following statement regarding the incident:

“We are deeply saddened by this tragic death and hope that the guilty parties are brought to justice. There is no excuse or justification for the brutal and ultimately fatal beating of a 2-year-old child by a grown man. This is a clear case of criminal intent and a lack of parental supervision.”

The company has been producing promotional videos for years, which encourages fans to not attempt any wrestling moves at their homes. You can see one of those videos below:
