Big E. has been taking to Twitter all weekend, sharing stories of his good friend Brodie Lee. He said,
“I cried with so many grown men as we told each other “I love you” the last two days. This industry can be dark and callous but it can also be beautiful & resilient. I hope losing Brodie gives us something great & meaningful.”
Brodie once texted me this magazine spread of him looking real good & me being stretched. pic.twitter.com/p6T4dYgUXF

If I didn’t know him, I’d think, “What a beautiful panhandler!”
(I’ve reached the “laugh to keep from crying” stage of grief.) pic.twitter.com/5XCaK1oaSk

I worked @WWERollins on Main Event more than 6 years ago. I was floundering in my career and my confidence was slipping. Brodie excitedly stopped me after to tell me how well he thought I’d done & that it showed the office I had more to offer. Those words meant so much.
