FINAL THOUGHT
My thoughts and prayers go out to the Martin family. Such a shock to see Test pass away.
I'll always remember T&A (Test and Albert) with Trish Stratus as their manager - those were the days.
R.I.P. Andrew Martin.
What surprises me most about this is that I remember reading an interview with Test a while ago, and he seemed to be the most health-conscious wrestler of them all. He was talking about the toll that wrestling takes on every wrestler's body, and he mentioned that how every single bump that a wrestler takes has the same impact as being hit by a semi-trailer going at 15 miles an hour. Or something like that.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'll always remember Test for his 2002-2003 storyline with Stacy, Steiner, Booker and others. I was always a Testicle, and I always will be!
