Godspeed, Jaysin Strife. Thank you for always doing it the right way. I never saw you treat anybody with anything other than respect, myself included. I’m glad that we met and worked together, and I’m so glad we got to catch up a couple of weeks ago. Rest well, my brother. 🙏 pic.twitter.com/3hYkcMnZne

Took this picture of Nate back in 2011 while strolling around England. We were two of the only American wrestlers booked on this Summer long European tour. @JaysinStrife is someone who changed the lives of many people for the better! Mine included. I will miss him dearly. pic.twitter.com/2HZirEuEpR

I met Nate (Jaysin Strife) first through @hypegotti back in the early 00s.
From there, Nate became a friend I saw often. He created such amazing thing w/@MAGNUMWRESTLING.
It was nice catching up with him at AEW early this year.
RIP Nate https://t.co/jWhWlBQo5N

Jaysin Strife
One of the nicest guys I ever met. You made me feel welcome my first time flying across the country to LA. This is one of my favorite memories from the trip.Thoughts are with your family.
You will be missed rest easy man https://t.co/boC3b7mdNj— Joe Gacy (@JoeGacy) December 30, 2022
You know…when I was a manager Bateman was trying to teach me how to strike. And I couldn't get it. Then @JaysinStrife was like, "hold on let me try"…and he taught me this method that worked
My forearms are from Strife. My big strike. It's because of him…
Thank you, Jaysin pic.twitter.com/W35ItAMFIB
