All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has taken to social media to announce the unfortunate passing of Jon Huber, also known as Brodie Lee or Luke Harper.
The promotion wrote:
The All Elite Wrestling family is heartbroken. In an industry filled with good people, Jon Huber was exceptionally respected and beloved in every way – a fierce and captivating talent, a thoughtful mentor and simply a very kind soul that starkly contradicted his persona as Mr. Brodie Lee.
Jon’s love for his wife Amanda, and children Brodie and Nolan, was evident to all of us who were fortunate to spend time with him, and we send our love and support to his beautiful family today and always. Jon’s popularity among his peers and influence on the wrestling world was worldwide and trascended AEW, so this loss will be felt by many for a long time.
We were privileged at AEW to call Jon Huber a brother, a friend and one of our own.
His wife has explained that his death came after a “non-COVID-related lung issue”.
Lee won the TNT Championship in AEW and was an Intercontinental and Tag Team Champion in WWE.
We send our thoughts and condolences to Huber’s family, friends, and everyone affected by his passing.
