Jeffrey Warner (born September 9, 1965) is a retired American professional wrestler and boxer best known by the ring name J. W. Storm. Storm worked for World Championship Wrestling most notably, as a member of the tag team Maximum Overdrive with Tim Hunt. He also had stints in Pacific Northwest Wrestling and Pro Wrestling America, winning the tag team championships in both promotions. Professional wrestling career Early career Warner started wrestling in 1989 in the NWA's Pacific Northwest territory. He formed a tag team with Art Barr who was using a "Beetlejuice" gimmick called "The Juice Patrol" with Warner becoming "Big Juice". They feuded with Ricky Santana and Curtis Thompson, who formed the tag team "U.S. Male", until Warner was forced to leave the promotion in a "loser leaves town" match on June 30, 1990. Warner also wrestled in Pro Wrestling America during the late-80s and early-90s and won the tag team titles as one half of Maximum Overdrive with Tim Hunt defeating Matt Derringer and Bret Derringer on June 24, 1989. Holding the titles for nearly a year, they finally lost them to the Steiner Brothers in Atlanta, Georgia on September 17, 1990. Warner, who had previously won the PWA Iron Horse Television title on April 5, 1990, would continue defending the title before jumping to the National Wrestling Alliance in June. On April 15, 1989 Warner and Hunt received a tryout with World Championship Wrestling, defeating The Tokyo Bullets in Chicago, IL. World Championship Wrestling (1990) On the August 24, 1990 episode of WCW's Power Hour, an announcement was made about the forthcoming Clash of the Champions XII that stated that the then NWA/WCW U.S. Tag Team Champions Steiner Brothers would be facing one of three new tag-teams set to debut on that event, the duo known as Maximum Overdrive (the other newcomers being The Nasty Boys and The Master Blasters. The duo would be Tim Hunt (known as Hunter) and Warner, who was dubbed Silencer. Overdrive were defeated by the Steiners at the Clash on September 5, but that proved to be the only match for the tandem. Twelve days later Warner was repackaged as singles wrestler J.W. Storm, with a look modeled after Steven Seagal from the movie Hard to Kill which had released earlier in the year. Storm defeated Brett Holliday in his debut at the taping for World Championship Wrestling in Macon, GA. Storm
