Erick Rowan Shares Touching Tribute To Former Tag Partner Brodie Lee

Brodie Lee sadly and shockingly passed away on Saturday, and the wrestling world took to social media to pay tribute to the much-loved man. One wrestler conspicuous by his absence was his longtime tag partner Erick Rowan. However, earlier today, Rowan took to Instagram and shared a touching tribute where he declares Lee not only a friend but a brother and that this is not goodbye forever, but goodbye for now.

Heartbroken and numb. Just when I think my eyes have dried, I think of you and begin to cry again. I have lost not only a friend but a brother! I struggled last night with many emotions and memories. Jon meant more to me than he will ever know. I remember clearly all the loops we had during our years on the road together. He would always look forward to getting home to his family. After every loop he would say to me, “Goodbye Forever”, because he would want his 1 or two days with them, to feel like forever. One thing he taught me through his own actions was to be a better father and husband. He was one of a kind in everything he did, great performer, great father, great husband, great friend, and all around amazing human. My heart goes out to everyone who was touched by his greatness. My deepest condolences to his family. Jon this is not, “Goodbye forever, but goodbye for now! I will see you on the otherside my brother. I LOVE YOU! Erick Rowan

Rowan and Lee’s career with forever be linked due to competing over 400 times as tag partners. They’d hold both the NXT Tag Team Championship and WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship during their WWE run together, which started in 2012 at an FCW show and ended in 2019 at a SmackDown houseshow in France. Apart from being partners, they also faced off against each other over 30 times.
