Not to rain on anybody's parade, but wasn't he an IWC whipping boy BEFORE his death? I mean, it sucks to hear what happened to him and all, but still, looks like when a person's life is loss, we remember them alot greater than they were.

update
PWInsider.com is sad to report that former WWE star Andrew "Test" Martin was found dead in his apartment in Tampa, Florida at the age of 33, just four days shy of his 34th birthday. We don't have much in the way of details at this time. Tampa area authorities have declined to officially confirm it is Martin they found but word within the industry has been widespread the last few hours.

Just a couple weeks ago I was laughing about how during his 03 face run with Stacy Keibler, I was so psyced to be a Testicle that I made a sign (yes, I was an 8th grade loser).
R.I.P. Test, wish you could have stuck around longer.

Can't say I was the biggest fan of his work, but he did entertain me at times. And he seemed like a really good person, from what I've heard.

I think this sort of thing can wait. Back on topic, I was a fan of Test's. I wasn't into his ECW return or his feud with Steiner, but I liked most of his career outside of that, T&A in particular.

This is shocking, even if he was a big man on roids.
My condolences go to his family, and also to Stacy and Barbie.

Again, sad to see him go, a decent big man, and Bret Hart's only trainee.
I'm also worried that it'll come out that steroids played a part in his death. That would mean even more negativity against the wrestling industry, and renewed calls for govt. action.

I wonder if Nancy Grace will cover his death?
