Mark Nulty, who had been around the wrestling business for a number of decades in different positions, most notably doing commentary and ring announcing as well as heading up the WrestlingClassics.com website, passed away yesterday following a quiet battle with cancer.

According to his long-time friend Paul Herzog, who publicly announced the news, Nulty was diagnosed with stage-4 lung cancer after a recurring cough, despite not being a smoker. This began an ongoing battle as the cancer spread despite rounds of chemotherapy. It spread to his brain and Nulty quietly, and not in pain, passed away.

Nulty was broke into the business in Joe Blanchard's Southwest Championship Wrestling as a TV host and ring announcer. He went on to work for World Class Championship Wrestling. Nulty appeared as an ring announcer for a number of promotions over the years and handled commentary on Ring of Honor DVD releases for several years of the promotion.

He was a historian in his own right and hosted a number of shoot interview DVDs that he sold through the WrestlingClassics website.

Our deepest condolences to Nulty's friends and family.
