According to PWInsider he died of a heart attack. Pretty wild. Loved him in ECW. Hell of an entertaining guy.

This should be on the classic wrestling board. Sad news though. He was a bad bad man and I loved how he brought out a trash can full of weapons to use in his matches. RIP.

Guy was crazy, yet entertaining in his own way.

RIP New Jack. He was one of a kind. I met him a few times in Poughkeepsie when ECW would come to the Civic Center and he was always real cool with us.
RIP

considering he was a chronic cocaine user this shouldn't really come as any major surprise.
the most violent wrestler of all time

Crazy as I just watched his Dark Side Condidential doc yesterday. I guess that was my own personal farewell to him.
He always fascinated me from Beyond the Mat to all the crazy stories to the shoot interviews to Dark Side. He truly was one of a kind. Say what you want about the guy but he was what the biz was all about: A character. And boy could he go on the stick. Sooner or later the bell had to ring but hell when it did, we got to listen to an awesome song!
I always imagined what his rumoured match with Cena at Armageddon 2004 would have went like. I just wanna thank Jack for the all the entertainment over the years, as twisted as alot of it was. His essence will be immortalized thanks to the legacy he has left behind. God speed, Jerome Young.

Bit improper to have my first statement to be a joke but well wishes to his family.

My friend was supposed to be on a zoom call with him yesterday. He was wondering why Jack didn't call. They'd been discussing merchandising opportunities for my friend to produce promos, posters and stuff. I work as a printer and actually printed off a proto poster for them yesterday. Pretty crazy and unfortunate news.

Rest in paradise to the Original Gangsta. No one has ever, or will ever, do it quite like Jack. The promos were fire. The violence was mythical. The man is a legend.
I will bump some NBK in his honor. I know I always got goosebumps when that song hit.
One final time: As he said....the three letters that meant most in this business (to a lot of us)
E C W! E C W!
