Saturday night, the wrestling world suffered an immeasurable loss as AEW wrestler Brodie Lee passed away at the age of 41. Over the last few days, the wrestling community has united. Wrestlers and fans alike have shared their love and memories for Lee and his family.
While someone's death shouldn't be needed to bring the wrestling world together, it also shows how important of a person Lee was to everyone all around the world.
This evening on Twitter, AEW owner Tony Khan announced that night one of New Year's Smash has been delayed until January 6, thus moving night two to January 13. This Wednesday's edition of AEW Dynamite will be a tribute show to celebrate Brodie Lee and his family. Khan had the following to say on Twitter:
"This Wednesday on #AEWDynamite, we'll celebrate the life of Jon Huber (Mr. Brodie Lee) with a show including tributes and a special card of matches dedicated to The Exalted One. This night is intended to honor Jon, but also this is for Amanda, and their sons Brodie (-1) & Nolan."
