Former ECW wrestler George "John Kronus" Caiazo was found dead today at his girlfriend's apartment in New Hampshire. No other details are available at the moment. Kronus underwent a knee operation (possibly a knee replacement, which a few people said a few months that he was going to have) last week.

Kronus is perhaps best known as half of the tag team "The Eliminators" with Perry Saturn in ECW, where he feuded with The Pitbulls, The Public Enemy, The Gangstas, and Rob Van Dam & Sabu. During much of 1996 and 1997, The Eliminators were pushed as "The Best Tag Team in the World." He was a 3-time ECW Tag Team Champion with Perry Saturn. He also held the title one other time with New Jack. The Eliminators broke up in August 1997 when Perry Saturn tore his ACL in a match. Instead of having surgery, Saturn jumped to WCW to become a singles star, thus leaving Kronus behind. The two never teamed again. After Kronus broke up with New Jack, he was pushed down the card and primarily used in a lower card enhancement position. He left the company sometime in 1999.

After a brief run in XPW, Kronus retired from wrestling in 2002. He worked the final "Hardcore Homecoming" event, "November Reign" in November 2005, losing to Balls Mahoney in what may have been the final match of his career.
