Michael John Lockwood (August 25, 1971 – November 6, 2003) was an American professional wrestler best known for his time with World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment (WWF/E) as Crash Holly, the on-screen cousin of Molly Holly and Hardcore Holly, then as Mad Mikey at Total Nonstop Action Wrestling. He died after choking on his own vomit after he took a deliberate overdose of prescription drugs

Career

Crash Holly could not be deterred from joining his cousin, Hardcore Holly, in WWE. He was also adamant about competing amongst sports-entertainment's greatest heavyweights. In 1999, Crash debuted on Raw and brought a scale with him to the ring to force opponents to prove they measured up. While he and his cousin often argued, they proved to be a formidable team when they could agree on the target of a famous Holly beatdown. This was no more evident then when they won the World Tag Team Championship from the Rock 'N' Sock Connection.

In 2000, he joined the Hardcore Division, and over the next three years became known as the Houdini of Hardcore. Crash wore the Hardcore Championship over 20 occasions. Later in the year, he was accompanied to the ring by his cousin, Molly Holly, and occasionally reformed his team with Hardcore Holly. Crash later added more trophies to his mantel when he won the Light Heavyweight title, and in 2001, he captured the European Championship. Crash continued to go in the face of all challengers no matter their size or reputation until he left the company in June 2003.
