    Andrew "Test" Martin dead at 33.

    Post  ThatChumpStain on Sat Mar 14, 2009 9:51 am

    Andrew Martin, best known for his days as Test in WWE, has been found dead in his apartment at the age of 33. He would have been 34 in four days. Authorities in Tampa, Florida, where Martin lived, have not provided any details yet. They have stated that a body was found in a condo, but have not confirmed that the body in question was Martin, however multiple people within the wrestling industry have confirmed that it was Martin's body that was found.

    Martin was released from WWE back in February of 2007 after failing a drug test. He then worked for TNA but was not offered a contract and went on to work a bit in Japan.

    I actually liked Test, very big shame this. RIP.

    I quite liked him first time out, they completely messed up throwing him in a tag team though, and his career was finished with that Raw incident in 2003

    Somebody who always had real potential but nevcer really got to break through the glass ceiling. terrible news - I thought we'd started to move beyond the recent "wrestlers dying young" period with all the recent emphasis on drugs tests.

    RIP to a good "big man".

    Can't believe how young he is! It's been a while since I've heard a wrestling death, hopefully they're becoming rarer.

    Oh no, I was never high on Test but this came unexpected. R.I.P

    Got a feeling he got the effects of some Steroid used from the past.

    Sounds like those drug habits have caught up with him. When he got suspended under the wellness program he quit the company rather than learn his lesson.

    Very sad though. RIP

    No real evidence to back that up at the minute, it may have been better to say "I assume those drug habits have caught up with him" but then im just being a dick by saying that because I think thats how he died too Very Happy

    If its true about your life flashing before your eyes before you die at least he got the images of Stacy Keibler and Kelly Kelly sucking his cock as his send off

    That's true... in that regard he lived a good life even if it was a short one. He porked not one but two of WWE's hottest ladies. Also was Test and Steph just an angle? If it was more that makes it 3 (yes, I'd pork Stephanie, shoot me)

    Yeah, Steph was just an angle.

    Sad loss in any case.

    Wasn't he "pro" Steroids for the Pro Wrestling business?

    Yep... or he certainly showed no interest in not using them. Like I said, he quit the company rather than serve a suspension because he felt they were wrong to suspend him for being a junkie.
