While his family have not yet revealed Stevie's cause of death, they have set up a GoFundMe page to help with the funeral costs.

They said in a statement: "Steve 'Puppet The Psycho Dwarf' Lee Richardson unexpectedly passed away on Wednesday, September 9, 2020 at his home in the morning.

"He was beloved by many and has many friends that were family, fans that adored him, but only his brother Jim left to take care of final arrangements.

"Puppet has put smiles across the world with his hardcore attitude and lifestyle.

"He is a legend in the art of Midget Wrestling.

"He needs our help to give him one last curtain call.
