Former GWF announcer Doyle King remembered Taylor on Twitter with the following story:
So sorry for your loss. Your dad was a great guy! I still tell the story of my neighbor confronting the midgets he thought were burglarizing my house. Neighbor stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Tug come out of my house. https://t.co/pDiedHmbji

Although in the United States, most of his most well known work was in Global in the early 1990s, Taylor worked quite a bit in Mexico as well. We'll have more on Taylor's career later this afternoon.
We'd like to express our deepest condolences to Chaz, the rest of the Taylor family as well as Taylor's friends and fans.
