Former WWE Intercontinental, European and Hardcore champion Test has died at just 33 years of age.
The Canadian wrestler - real name Andrew Martin - was found dead in his Tampa, Florida, home on March 13, 2009 with the cause of death as yet unknown.
He was initially trained up by WWE legend Bret The Hitman Hart before going on to make his debut in the federation on October 25, 1998.
As a firm fan favourite, he went on to form partnerships with the likes of The Rock, Big Show, Mankind, Ken Shamrock, Albert, Scott Steiner and most effectively Booker T, with whom he claimed both the WWE and WCW tag team titles.
He also had onscreen relationships with Stephanie McMahon and Stacey Keibler before going on to be released by the franchise in late 2004.
An all too brief return to the ECW ended in February 2007 and Martin went on to announce his retirement from the squared circle on December 19, 2007.
