Timeline
Steven Nicolas Romero (June 21, 1955 – September 2, 1985) was an American professional wrestler better known by his ring name Jay Youngblood.
In addition, he wrestled with Championship Wrestling from Florida, Pacific Northwest Wrestling, NWA All-Star Wrestling and the American Wrestling Association.
Romero's father had discouraged him not to wrestle, but despite this, he started wrestling in 1975 in Amarillo under a mask, calling himself "Silver Streak".
After this, he moved to Pacific Northwest Wrestling with a Native American gimmick under the name of Jay Youngblood.
He engaged in a feud with Buddy Rose; at one point, Youngblood claimed that Rose had broken his arm.
In October 1979, Youngblood and Steamboat defeated Baron von Raschke and Paul Jones for their first reign with the NWA World Tag Team Championship.
He also teamed with Joe Lightfoot as "The Indians", capturing the NWA Canadian Tag Team Championship in November 1980.
They held the titles until losing them to Ray Stevens and Greg Valentine in April 1980, but they regained the titles in a rematch in May until dropping them in June to Stevens and Jimmy Snuka.
On June 27, 1982 in Maple Leaf Wrestling, Youngblood defeated The Destroyer in the finals of a tournament to win the NWA Canadian Television Championship, becoming the inaugural champion.
Zhukov, then known as Private Jim Nelson, later betrayed his team in favour of Youngblood and Steamboat.
The rivalry culminated in a steel cage match on March 12, 1983, where Slaughter and Kernodle lost their NWA World Tag Team Championship to Steamboat and Youngblood.
He was later defeated by Private Jim Nelson for the title.
Steamboat and Youngblood also feuded with Jack and Jerry Brisco, trading the tag team titles with them several times.
At the inaugural Starrcade pay-per-view on November 24, with Angelo Mosca as the special guest referee, Youngblood and Steamboat defeated the Briscos to win back the World Tag Team Championships.
However, the titles were vacated on December 25 when Steamboat announced his retirement.
He went to Championship Wrestling from Florida in September 1984, where he and his brother Mark Youngblood captured the Florida version of the NWA United States Tag Championship two times.
Also in 1984, Youngblood wrestled in Puerto Rico for the World Wrestling Council (WWC), and in 1985, he wrestled in American Wrestling Association, Memphis, Mexico, and for Pro Wrestling USA.
He was married at the time of his death and left behind a son, Daniel, and a daughter, Ricca.
During a wrestling tour of the South Pacific, Youngblood was experiencing abdominal pain and went to the hospital where he was diagnosed with hemorrhagic pancreatitis.
He started to develop abdominal sepsis and kidney failure before suffering a series of heart attacks.
He was in a coma for two weeks before dying on September 2, 1985, in Parkville, Victoria, Australia, aged 30.
Before his death, Youngblood had purchased a house in Charlottesville, Virginia.
