Amanda Huber wants to create a cohesive understanding for fans of pro wrestling. Huber, who suffered the unfortunate loss of her husband Brodie Lee on December 26, 2020 took to her Instagram Stories to share a message with fans of the wrestling world, imploring them to show less division and more support for the “one true sport” as it’s living in the way that her late husband always did. Right off the bat, shed expressed that there was no hatred for WWE in their household, only frustration.
“So many people expect myself and my family to hate on WWE.
“The fact is, we don’t. We never have.
“My husband absolutely got frustrated because he wanted more than they had envisioned for him. That didn’t mean he hated them.
“The frustration didn’t change the real & genuine love that our family has for pro wrestling.
“WWE gave my husband a platform. It enabled him to live his dream. A dream he *almost* gave up on. He was able to travel the world, in his dream job. He got to entertain millions of people. He got to build a beautiful life for our family. He held singles gold there. He won a belt at WrestleMania! He ticked so many “dream life” boxes there. He just happened to want a little more out of his career. That’s why he left. Not out of hate. Not because they’re an evil company. He left because his vision didn’t match theirs.
“The most incredible thing he took away from his time in WWE was the people. The people he carried with him until his very last days. It wasn’t one company vs another. Little Brodie loves wrestling. We still watch wrestling every week. We would tune in to see “Uncle Boom-Boom” [Cesaro] and family best friend Big E. People that transcended the lines of friendship into family. People in the WWE watched my kids grow up. They loved my husband so much they welcomed my family into their arms. They became my family too. The flood of love I’ve received from the WWE is real and it’s beautiful.
“In my husbands final moments, the people that surrounded my family were wrestlers. Companies didn’t matter.
“Please, I beg you. Stop trying to create a divide in wrestling. Support pro wrestling. Love pro wrestling.
“Live your life like Brodie. In a way that people speak like this.”
