I'm not sure of the cause but I also believe JYD died several years ago.

No one, except maybe his mother, will remember him as the greatest Temptation, but Ali-Ollie Woodson died Sunday.

I don't say that to diminish how good he was--he does have "Treat Her Like A Lady" to his credit, among others, and that's a great song with some awesome vocals--but because that was a stellar group, and most people would say the late David Ruffin was the best of the bunch.

Louise Bourgeois, famous artist and sculptor died the other day at age 98...of a heart attack.

JYD died back in 1998. He was killed in a car accident on his way back from his daughter's high school graduation. RIP Sylvester Ritter...THUMP

I thought JYD had died awhile ago too, but RAW was doing this tribute piece on him and they usually only do them when one of the wrestlers dies. I don't know of any reasons why they would have shown that. My bad.
