Joining the Loco Syndicate, Deals with Ryder
- "This guy is T-Bone Mendaz. He's the muscle."
- ―Guppy
By 1992, Mendez had become one of the three members in the Loco Syndicate, along with Mike Toreno and Jizzy B.. Mendez and the Rifa become the muscle of the gang, with Toreno overseeing and Jizzy arranging deals. T-Bone is a large man, and very distrustful of others, nearly to the point of paranoia. He is seen beating a man to death during The Introduction machinima.
T-Bone makes his first appearance in Photo Opportunity. The dialogue about the history between the Rifa and the Varrios came from a dummied out beta version of that mission, which included CJ and Cesar spying on the meet while in a helicopter.

- "Horale, ese."
- ―T-Bone to Carl
He and Carl Johnson are introduced in the the mission T-Bone Mendez, and in the mission Mike Toreno, CJ drives while T-Bone uses his cellphone to locate Toreno. Mendez shortly afterwards becomes distrustful of CJ, and ambushes him from the back seat of a car in Outrider, holding a gun to his face and accusing him of being a snitch, trying to scare him into admitting it. However, CJ doesn't crack.
Death
- "Mendez! I see you, Rifa motherfucker!"
