The roster and Brodie’s family are on the stage for the ten bell salute.
Mox speaks on the out-pouring of support for Brodie. He brought joy to the people around him. I spent over a decade on the road with him, from armories to stadiums. He loved being a family man, more than anything. He used to tell me all the time, you’re gonna love it. 2020 has hit us hard. As the calendar turns to 2021, that’s exactly what pro wrestling, its a community, we support each other, love each other. We come together to celebrate a man who inspires us to be better, to appreciate everything we have every day.
