AEW fans sent heartfelt messages on social media as August 22, 2022 marks the two-year anniversary of Brodie Lee's AEW TNT Championship victory.

Lee faced Cody Rhodes for the TNT Title on the Saturday Night special edition of Dynamite. The Exalted One dominated the champion throughout the match and picked up a victory via pinfall.

Brodie Lee had successful title defenses against Dustin Rhodes and Orange Cassidy. He eventually lost the gold to The American Nightmare in a Dog Collar match in October 2020, ending his reign at 46 days.

Unfortunately, Lee passed away on December 26, 2020 due to Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in Jacksonville, Florida.

The Twitterati reacted on the second anniversary of The Exalted One's TNT Title win and expressed grief at his sudden passing. Here are a few of the reactions:

AEW star Anna Jay recently recalled her experiences with Brodie Lee

During her recent appearance at the GalaxyCon event, Jay spoke about her time in the Brodie Lee-led Dark Order. She said it was an "honor" to work alongside Lee in the pro wrestling business.

Anna Jay added that although The Exalted One looked intimidating, he was genuinely a "nice person":

"It was an honor, first off, to work with him, I would definitely say a lot of you have probably seen some of our favorite moments on BTE. That definitely made us closer as a group, as a whole, especially with him. He's so intimidating looking and then you see him doing those things and it just makes you relate to him. So, not only was he super talented in the ring, but also hilarious and such a nice person."
