The toughest part of this industry… is when you bond with people…. and then that bond is severed unexpectedly. RIP brudda.

I was rooting for you just like you did for me. I already missed you… but this… it's painful. Safe journey my man.

Man…the first dude that took me under his wing when I got signed in 2009. We spent so much of our adult lives together. Praying for Jojo. Praying for his kids. I will miss your laugh & your boyish charm, my friend. Goodbye, Windham.

RIP Bray-

You will be very missed my friend. You always brought the locker room many many laughs. I’m grateful for so many special moments we shared at my ring this past year. I can’t believe this. The world only saw a glimpse of your creativity. This loss is immeasurable.
