Episode 51: Jesse Scott Tribute - Part 1

On May 7, 2024, at the age of 43, Jesse Scott left this life. Jesse succumbed to a rare form of cancer, which he bravely faced for more than a year.

 

Jesse was a powerful and positive force in the professional wrestling world. He wrestled for over 2 decades under the names JT Playa, and later, Tiberious King. He was the founder of NEO Wrestling, a company that helped launch the careers of many professional wrestlers who currently wrestle on television for the biggest wrestling companies in the world.

 

Jesse is survived by his wife of nine years, Stella, and their three young sons, Cohen, Forest, and Gaelen. A champion for good both in the ring and in life, Jesse will be remembered for his limitless generosity of spirit, inspiring strength, extravagant humour, charismatic wrestling talent, and beautiful devotion to his family.
