Oh man, only a year older then me. :(

My condolences...

I didn't get to see many matches since I didn't have WWE for many years and only limited WCW broadcasts, but I seem to remember him as T.J. Thunder and Test.

Oh dude I'm sorry. It's sad to see someone so young go.

Wow for a guy who shares my name that freaked me out when I read the topic. Was he a close relative, I mean were you two close? In any case I'm sorry to hear that.

He was kind of a buddy of mine years ago, he tried to get me into wrestling (already was a fan) but I chose to join the Marines. Use to talk with him here and there, have some letters from him and such, some pics from his time in the different wrestling companies. I mean, we weren't like super close or something. He is just over a year or so older than me, I am 32, going on 33 in August so it is kind of a weird thing to know he is gone.
