Brodie Lee’s wife, Amanda Huber, has taken to social media to make a plea to fans about trying to create a divide in the pro wrestling business.
Since AEW started, there has been some fans who have taken sides whether that’s only supporting WWE and talking negatively about AEW or vise versa. Jon Huber worked for both companies.
Although he decided to leave WWE due to frustration over the way he was booked, he never talked badly about the company or took shots at them although he did poke fun at Vince McMahon with some segments when he first joined AEW.
When Lee passed away, both WWE and AEW honored him. Amanda posted a statement on her Instagram Story about this belief. Here’s an excerpt from the post:
“The most incredible thing he took away from his time in WWE was the people. The people he carried with him until his very last days. It wasn’t one company vs another. Little Brodie loves wrestling. We still watch wrestling every week. We would tune in to see “Uncle Boom-Boom” @WWECesaro and family best friend @WWEBigE people that transcended the lines of friendship into family. People in the WWE watched my kids grow up. They loved my husband so much they welcomed my family into their arms. They became my family too. The flood of love I’ve received from the WWE is real and it’s beautiful.
In my husbands final moments, the people that surrounded my family were wrestlers. Companies didn’t matter. Please, I beg you. Stop trying to create a divide in wrestling. Support pro wrestling. Love pro wrestling. Live your life like Brodie. In a way that people speak like this.”
