Earlier this month, it was sadly reported that Bo Lueders, guitarist for Chicago-based hardcore/punk band Harm’s Way, passed away at just 38 years old. Pro wrestlers including CM Punk, Danhausen and Brody King all paid tribute via social media.
Punk wrote via social media: “Check on your people. Reach out if you need help. Tell em you love them. 988 Text, Call, Chat. Anytime. Anywhere. Whether you’re facing mental health struggles, emotional distress, al**hol or d**g use concerns, or just need someone to talk to, counselors are there to help. There’s a lot of stress and sadness in the world right now. Mental health can be a struggle but there’s plenty of support out there. We love you.”
During Sunday night’s Wrestlemania main event, Punk paid homage to several people important to him who have unfortunately passed away. Stitched onto his jacket were his dog Larry, wrestling legend Harley Race, several WWE employees and also Harm’s Way’s late guitarist.
Punk’s intro to the match featured AFI’s “Miseria Cantare,” the theme he used from his Ring Of Honor days, before segueing into the familiar tones of Living Colour’s “Cult Of Personality.”
