Andrew “Test” Martin Dead at 33

Former WWE wrestler Andrew Martin, known to most fans as Test, was found dead in his Tampa, FL apartment on Friday night. The Tampa Tribune reports:
Police say at this time there is no indication of foul play. Martin was 33.
At about 8 p.m., police responded to the Post Harbour Apartments, 725 Harbour Place Drive, to check on Martin, according to a media release. A neighbor reported that she could see into his apartment through a window and that Martin appeared motionless for several hours.
Officers entered the apartment and found Martin dead. He was transported to the Medical Examiners Office for an autopsy to determine the cause of death. The date of the autopsy is undetermined at this time.
The next of kin has been notified of the death.
Martin was released from his WWE contract in early 2007 following a violation of the company’s wellness policy. In 2008 he was jailed on a DUI charge, and later credited girlfriend Barbie Blank (aka Kelly Kelly) with helping him get back on track. Martin and Blank split up earlier this year.
