It looks like a one car accident Click Here (f4wonline.com)

I know him as Gigalo Jimmy Del Ray from The Heavenly Bodies a team that creeped me out with their sleezy sex appeal gimmick, but were really solid in the ring. He was also Jimmy Graffiti in WCW, which was about as dopey a gimmick as you could give a guy like him. He was other stuff too.

I can't say I've really taken it much of his work, but always a tragedy when they go too soon.

There are already a bunch of tribute videos for him on youtube. i never got into his work much, but go in a one car crash at 6PM is odd.

Not familiar so I Youtubed him. I'm still trying to figure out if the gimmick was supposed to be ironic?

RIP to him, though. Always sad to see. :(

His sleazy dance synchronized with the Heavenly Bodies theme was easily the highlight of many a Superstars tapings.

Truly one of a kind.

I heard a heart attack may have been to blame, much like with The Macho Man. No idea how much truth there is to it, but it would explain the one car crash.
