Very sad and all too familiar.

remember ''the big show'' smash ''hulk hogan''

Oh come on, yeah it is unfortunate for family and loved ones but someone who fails the amount of drug test's and ignore the wwe wellness program as much as Test did is anyone at all suprised at this.....

We could sit here all night and run off a list after list of wrestlers who passed away before their time due to the same actions.

I do think that WWE may finally have sorted the problem, after the Benoit and Guerrero how could it not improve, bad publicity and all that! Still..

RIP Andrew Martin

Above post edited as it did sound very heartless.

Andrew The Pain / Test Martin RIP. As the above poster points out, he should have stuck to the wellness problem and this day may have came 30, 40 or 50 years later.

To be honest I think Vince is trying to make an example of Christian at the moment by pulling him from the Jeff storyline (or so we would assume) and stuck him in ECW. After all, he was the first big name to jack the WWE in and jump ship to TNA, by making him work his way back up the ranks he's telling everyone that you won't get an easy ride if you do decide to return to WWE from TNA / New Japan or whatever.

Hopefully him or MVP to win MITB though. If he does win it, it doesn't matter what brand he's on, Christian can run out on SD! or Raw and pin the champ whenever he likes. Much like Edge.

I think Christian is superb and was a bit gutted when he left "for family reasons" then 2 weeks later he turned up in that second rate toss TNA (my personal opinion)

Glad he's back and he should be operating on Raw, not many people as of late make as good of a heel as Christian ever did.

Orton of course is immense as a 'bad guy' but Christian had somethin else about him. I'd agree sayin him or MVP deserve a decent WWE run.

On a side note I really rate 'Legacy' and believe DH Smith should join up, I ain't seen to much of him though to know if he is any good?!?

DH Smith has the power & build to do well in the WWE. He needed to work on his character & personality more & thats why he hasnt been on the tele for a while.

He actually cut an interview the other day where he actually said he'd like to join the 'Legacy' group.

Sad to hear about Test, he used to be my favorite wrestler, especially during the invasion story line, even had a 'I LOVE MY TESTICLES' shirt, maybe ill have to dig it out again...

I've just read the last blog post by Test and he actually seems to be upbeat after just coming back from wrestling in Japan. He was also due to go on a wrestling tour in Europe. The only down he seemed to have recently was splitting up with Kelly Kelly a few months back.

He had completed rehab offered by WWE for his drug problems, but drugs including steriods always loomed over him. He even defended them once for use in wrestling because he said they were for cosmetic reasons and not performance.

We don't know what caused the death at the moment, but drugs do catch with you so it could have been a heart attack the same as Eddie.

RIP Test, 33 (was due to be 34 next week) is far too young to die.

how come i never realised that terry funk was in roadhouse, it's ing obvious that it's him.
