Joseph Hudson, better known to wrestling fans as Jocephus or The Question Mark in NWA has passed away.
NWA President Billy Corgan gave a statement on his Instagram page, saying he passed away due to an undiagnosed medical issue.
"It’s with a heavy heart that I share that my friend and brother in wrestling, Joseph Hudson, has passed away suddenly from an as-yet undiagnosed medical issue. NWA fans would know him as Jocephus as well as The Question Mark; where thanks to the great fans at GPB Studios in Atlanta, Joseph was able to receive the kind support in the ring he’d always dreamt of. He is survived by a young son whom he loved dearly, and if anything would pain him about leaving this earth it would be not being able to be there for his boy. RIP Joseph, love to you and Godspeed," wrote Corgan.
The NWA posted the following statement:
The National Wrestling Alliance is devastated to learn of the passing of Joseph Hudson, better known to fans as Jocephus and the Question Mark.
Joseph has been a pillar of the NWA for many years, whether it be as the enigmatic leader of the Kingdom of Jocephus or the beloved Master of Mongrovian Karate.
Joseph will be remembered for his warm personality and imaginative spirit. We extend our deepest sympathies to Joseph's family, friends, and fans.
Jocephus was a regular for the NWA, first as a spiritual advisor and then as The Question Mark alongside Aron Stevens.
My heart is broken. R.I.P. Sensei . Thank you for all you have done for the fans and for me. This does not seem real.

He last wrestled on NWA Super Powerrr, which was taped in January 2020, but aired on May 12, 2020 where he teamed with Stevens.
Such horrible news to share. Jocephus Hudson has passed. Moments ago @NWA President William Patrick Corgan issued a statement on his IG. Joe was so creative and a hell of a guy. Most of you know him as @QuestiontheTHE. My condolences to his family, friends and fans. #RIP pic.twitter.com/1hnVUq4vZy
