WWE paid a special tribute to Brodie Lee

The company paid a major tribute to Brodie Lee with a graphic in his honor. However, it mentioned Lee’s actual name – Jon Huber, and his WWE in-ring name, Luke Harper.

Nevertheless, it gave a heartwarming start to the night’s event.

Previously, other pro-wrestlers and Superstars shared their grievances and utter devastation via social media. Some of them were Chris Jericho, Cody Rhodes, Triple H, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and several others.

Regardless of whether he was in AEW as Brodie Lee or WWE as Luke Harper, he made an impact. At WWE, he became well known for his time with the Wyatt family and as a Tag Team alongside Erick Rowan.

Even though the company did not use him as expected, he made a name for himself before quitting.
