AEW star Pac found slumped over in car outside restaurant before death

All Elite Wrestling star Benjamin Satterley, who performed in the ring under the stage name Pac, was found “passed out” in a vehicle in a CAVA parking lot just before he was pronounced dead in Illinois on Sunday, the California Post can exclusively report.

Medics raced to Satterley at the Mediterranean-themed restaurant in Des Plaines at around 4 p.m., according to dispatch audio obtained by The Post on Monday.

“This is going to be a slumper,” authorities said in the audio. “We can’t confirm breathing at this time.”

“This is going to be a slumper in a car. We cannot confirm breathing yet. At this point, we’re still on the phone getting further,” they later added.

An official could be heard in the audio a short time later appearing to relay that Satterley was discovered dead on arrival.

Some of the restaurant’s customers had seen Satterley “passed out” in his vehicle and called for 911, a witness told The Post. The patrons looked for any sort of medical equipment inside the CAVA to try to help the wrestler before emergency personnel arrived.

“There was an ambulance, police and a fire truck, all outside,” the witness said.

A spokesperson for the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office told The Post on Monday Satterley was pronounced dead at 4:08 p.m. A cause of death is still pending an autopsy, the rep added.

Satterley was 40 years old.
