It was an accidental overdose of oxycodone.[23] It was later determined by forensic pathologist Dr. Bennet Omalu that Martin had severe chronic traumatic encephalopathy, an Alzheimer's-like form of brain damage that fellow pro wrestler Chris Benoit was found to be suffering from shortly after his death in 2007. It is caused by repeated concussions and subconcussive head injuries.
I think the WWE needs to listen to the real fans on the internet and over 16 yrs of age. Instead of pushing wrong ppl like babyfaces that appeal to the kids 5yrs to 16yrs. Test didn't deserve this dying without a big push in the WWE. Fuck the WWE they wouldn't talent if it stab them in the back with an sword.
a tremendous in ring performer who wasn't given a -GOOD- opprotunity to break away into a major star. Thats the writers fault, not his. and can we please wake the fuck up and educate ourselves that steroids aren't killing people? these athletes get hooked on anti-inflamitories, drugs and liquor. over the counter medication that they are abusing is the common cause of death. fucking idiots.
I respect everything you are saying mate, except one thing. Test was a tremendous in ring performer and one of the best big men in the business. He may not have had great microphone talent but he was a great wrestler
TEST WAS TREMENDOUS!!!!!!!!!! fuck you you stupid preppy fuck!!!!! i loved him! he was one of my favourite wrestlers of all time! and he died on my birthday! i was heartbroken! so fuck you! dont you dare say he wasnt a good wrestler! no one EVER does a big boot anywhere near as good as he did! you dont know shit! DICKHEAD!
chris benoit crazy ass had a fucking crazy ass tribute where we watched 3 hours of his matches after he killed his family and himself but wwe gave him a nice little tribute....test dies and i hear nothing....what type of shit is that?
Just b/c he didnt win any wwe championships what about the other wrestlers who cant be the highest champ
ive been watching wrestling since 1999 and i think im gunna stop because thats crazy i dont like test but still he desevered better
That's because I truly do believe that Vince Mcmahon is a fucking asshole. The ego you see being presented in the ring as a seemingly harmless "storyline" is how he actually is in real-life. He's just looking for a new set of wrestlers to replace Test that will keep him a wealthy trillionaire. I've been watching wrestling since about '96 or '97, so I agree with u man!
i agree they should have at least given him a 10-bell salute like they did for the other wrestlers that passed away before him. R.I.P Andrew "Test" Martin!!! I Love You!!!
To those who say he never did enough to deserve the acknowledgment.You ever work your ass for anybody? Any professional wrestler out there works their ass off for that check.They take knocks that would put any normal person in the hospital.They bleed.They sweat.They sometimes die in the ring trying to entertain you.If the companies they work for can't acknowledge that these people they paid to do this stuff died then they are in the wrong.A simple bell ring,a name and pic with dates on it. Nice
Well this is more "WWE TV refuse to acknowledge Andrew Martin's Death" rather than "In Memory of Andrew Martin". Although autopsy reports haven't confirmed it, it's not a stretch to think that the obviously-juicing Martin's death will be attributed to a heart attack stemming from years of steroid abuse. The other explanation is a painkiller overdose. But WWE chose to distance itself, shamefully, from the man who gave WWE 7 years of his life and literally broke his back for them. It's a shame.
Minoux02, your missing the point. Acknowledging a man's passing has nothing to do with his steroid use. WWE should have had the decency to at least give him a 30 second tribute. It's not like they would go into great lengths to explain his passing. You say he did nothing for the company? i take it you didn't watch much wrestling back in the day when he was getting the biggest push of his career with the Stephanie & Triple H angle.
Were you able to find an autopsy report confirming steroids?
Ok,the WWE (who erased Chris Bentiot, a man who did a LOT more then Test)is going to start off the show killing the heat for the rest of the night by showing a guy who is only know to by about 25% of the mark fans?Plus that "Push" you talked about only lasted about a couple of weeks the HHH burried him and he went on to being mid card.
You know I can't blame WWE,would be a PR nightmare and Test did jack shit for the company except forn make it hard to watch when he was seen.I rufuse to have sympathy for guys how die from steriods.They can make there own decission,Test made a stupid one and died from it.
Such a shame they never paid tribute for him..........I cry,he was great wrestler and great heart man.REST IN PEACE Andrew Test Martin.I love u....
