A fan died in the stands of a live WWE event Saturday night.

The death occurred at a house show in Portland, Maine where an elderly man reportedly collapsed out of his seat in the corner stands as the second match of the event began.

EMTs got the older man to the nearest flat area and conducted CPR for roughly 20 minutes,TMZ reports. He was then taken out out on a stretcher to a local hospital. During the time EMT's performed CPR, two matches went down.

He was transported to Maine Medical Center, where he was later pronounced dead.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the WWE fan's family during this tragic time.
