If WWE is nervous & taking precautions with his health. He must be really ill. We might need to add him to the lists because i have a very bad feeling we are gonna hear he's passed away from whatever illness he's having.

No. Jon Huber aka Brodie Lee aka Luke Harper (yet another member of the Wyatt Family stable) was active when he passed suddenly a couple of years ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FinalChapter 71 Posted August 24, 2023 Just now, alt obits guy said: No. Jon Huber aka Brodie Lee aka Luke Harper (yet another member of the Wyatt Family stable) was active when he passed suddenly a couple of years ago. He was active on AEW, he had left WWE when he passed away. I can’t believe this was his last on screen appearance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,350 Posted August 25, 2023 Shame, he seemed like he was guaranteed to be the man to break the record for "Most Wrestling Observer Newsletter Awards for Worst Wrestling Match of the Year", but he'll now remain forever on four (tied with Hogan).

the_engineer 1,414 Posted August 25, 2023 I think it's one of the biggest and shocking wrestling deaths in a long time. The equivalent of undertaker, kane or mankind dying during the attitude era and when I first heard he died I thought suicide. For me he was the only reason I still watched wrestling and haven't watched it in the months since he's been off TV and won't be starting up again now. R.I.P Bray Wyatt & prayers to his family & children. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Grimace 352 Posted August 31, 2023 I found this graphic summarizes just how rough 2023 has been, and it is only August. Three have been DDP hits (Superstar, Iron Sheik, Funk) for the respective wrestler theme teams. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
