Wow. Reports saying he died from an illness. I guess this was the reason for being off of tv for a while, not just the ankle injury.

His wife posted this:

quote:

“My best friend died today.

I never wanted to write out those words. My heart is broken. The world saw him as the amazing @brodielee (fka Luke Harper) but he was my best friend, my husband, and the greatest father you would ever meet. No words can express the love I feel or how broken I am right now. He passed surrounded by love ones after a hard fought battle with a non Covid related lung issue. The @mayoclinic is literally the best team of doctors and nurses in the world who surrounded me with constant love.

On top of that, I can’t express my love and admiration for the way @allelitewrestling has treated not only my husband but myself and my kids. @margaret.stalvey @meghalegalgirl10 @americannightmarecody @thebrandirhodes @nickjacksonyb @mattjackson13 @kennyomegamanx @tonyrkhan and the rest of the team at AEW have helped keep me standing and pick up all the broken pieces.

I’ve been surrounded by so much love and incredible people I can’t tag them all but they know who they are and I don’t think they will ever know how thankful I am for them.”

That’s sad. He was only 41.

That is so terrible. There have been so many rumors going around about his long absence. Did not know he was that ill. Rest In Peace, definitely shocking news

I'm guessing the same illness as every other professional wrestler.

Man this is shocking.

I think the last match I saw him in was the strap match against Cody. Was that his last one?

I hate it for his family and the AEW roster just took a hit. Brodie was putting together some damn good matches and storylines.

Why even come in this thread to post this childish trope? Someone died.

Yeah that was his last time on TV was that strap match where he lost the TNT Championship back to Cody

I was looking forward to his return and the story being he'd wreck shop after seeing what the Dark Order had become during his absence

I didn’t hear that he was officially out I just assumed he was nursing an injury or they were letting that storyline build for him to return.

Wonder what they do with the dark order now

It was known he was out with some kind of issue... ankle was the 1st story but then it became obvious something more was going on

The storyline I put up a few posts ago was me just fantasy booking based off what was going on, esp on BTE

But AEW has proven it has the ability to adapt so I'm sure they'll do something good with the Dark Order

The official story was that he had an ankle injury, which may have also been true. Tony Khan hinted something else was going on but wouldn't say more. This is quite the loss for AEW.

Maybe Hangman will take over Dark Order now or maybe they'll just continue being a group of comedy jobbers with Evil Uno as the sort of leader like before Brodie came in.
