No idea how she got through that. I could barely breathe watching it. And the line about losing their only kid… it’s too much, man.

Yeah I most certainly didnt know that. I cant even imagine what that has to be like

I remember she had to say something straight after the tribute video to Dusty Rhodes when he passed, and bless her heart she was a wreck, since I don't believe she had seen the video beforehand, but she tried so hard.

The only kid line absolutely got to Renee. Being a parent, you know her kid popped into her thoughts at that moment.

As an only kid myself...This broke me too

Seeing the photo of him, just makes it feel surreal.

Renee did well, too.

Well done to Renee getting through that. I imagine it has to be extra hard reading something like that out loud when you're a parent yourself...

Jeezus when she said mourning their only son I was done.

I'd like to say that if anyone is struggling with Ben’s (Neville or Pac) passing just know you're not alone & it’s completely normal if you need to talk to someone myself included.

I saw him Saturday in person, I was feet from him, he was spectacular, I was so impressed with his physique and how much he bulked up in such a short amount of time ON TOP of how incredibly muscular he already was, got home and found out he was gone Sunday night and I just haven't been the same since, it's wierd I haven't felt this way since Chester Bennington passed, but it feels so much more personal now, I've never felt this way about someone I never spoke with, I haven't lost a lot of people in my life so I'm not very good with processing grief, I didn't get a chance to watch the show until now, and I just cried the whole way through, I think I need a break from wrestling, I'm not good at this, I think watching Steven borden get hurt Saturday now this has thrown me off emotionally I'm having a tough time coping, I just don't like people getting hurt this way, or just being gone.. forever, I'm getting older, my parents are getting old, my partner is sick, Its just a lot and I'm scared, thank you if anyone reads this, I just needed to get it out, I appreciate this community for being so loving and understanding

That's completely understandable & I agree Ben was one of those wrestlers who not only looked the part but also had the talent to back it up. I’ll say even though this is a hard time for all of us & this can be hard to see but Ben & especially his character Pac would want us to stay strong & keep moving forward for him.

Renee is a pro’s pro. Of all the things she’s ever done on tv for both companies, that was probably her best moment. And lowkey hinting she’s the real leader of the deathriders.

u/WriterCath 11d ago

She only formalized her allegiance when Kemalito joined - I think we know who the real power behind the throne is.

AEW is special.

u/CrystalFissure 12d ago

What strength from the Satterly family and Renee for getting through that on live TV. Am so anxious/excited about watching this show tonight. Anxious because it’s so tragic what happened, but excited because I know the roster, fans and everyone else will make it an incredible show that shows how much PAC was loved.

u/sillyandstrange SHOW SOME LOVE 12d ago

I'm just catching up with the shows I missed, and I'm about to start his All Out match... Still unbelievable that this happened...

AEW does tribute shows very well. Lets hope they don't have to do any more for a long, long time.

I got no tears left, man

u/Cathousechicken 11d ago

This moment broke me. My heart breaks for his parents. They will never be ok. Burying a child is catastrophic. 

My son passed on June 7 at age 21. His brother is now a twinless twin. Our lives will never be the same. 

It's like being a walking ghost and the only thing that will keep them going is knowing they have to go on for others that they love.

I don't know how Renee was able to get through that.
