Xavier Woods took part in an eight-man match this week, Monday night, with Kofi Kingston, Riddle, Jeff Hardy and all four members of The Hurt Business. As the four faces of the children gathered for a backstage promotion before the game, fans quickly saw Woods wearing a black banner with the word “Brodie” written on the front. The band is a reference to Brodie Lee, formerly known as Luke Harper, who tragically died at the weekend at the age of 41.

Woods was just one of many who managed to sneak in references to the former Intercontinental champion throughout the night, including Drew McIntyre and Tom Phillips. WWE opened the show with fast graphics in honor of Lee.

At the end of the match, Woods tapped Lee’s disc as he shouted “Yes! Yes! Yes!”

AEW broke the news of Lee’s death on Saturday night, writing in a statement: “The All Elite Wrestling family has a broken heart. In an industry full of good people, Jon Huber was exceptionally respected and loved in every way – a fierce and captivating talent, a caring mentor and simply a very kind soul who strongly contradicted his personality as Mr. Brodie Lee. read in the AEW statement. “Jon’s love for his wife Amanda, and for children Brodie and Nolan, was evident to all of us who were lucky enough to spend time with him and pass on the love and support to his beautiful family, today and forever. Jon’s popularity among his colleagues and influence in the world of wrestling has been worldwide and has surpassed AEW, so this loss will be felt by many for a long time. We were privileged at AEW to call Jon Huber a brother, a friend and one of ours. “

AEW President Tony Khan announced on Monday that this week’s Dynamite will now serve as a special tribute to Lee, with members of The Dark Order teaming up with some of the company’s biggest stars.
