Unfortunately, that would be his last appearance on the show. Brodie battled a lung issue before eventually succumbing to it on December 26, 2020. His wife, Amanda Huber,  later confirmed that the cause of death was idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; a rare disease that causes progressive and irreversible decline in lung function.

Amanda Huber took to Instagram to post a heartfelt tribute to her late husband. She said that it was the happiest she had seen him even though he debuted in his hometown of Rochester without an audience. He rolled with it and it is now her turn to do the same even if life has gone off the rails for her.

“You bet on yourself. (My money was always on you)

It wasn’t the debut you envisioned. Rochester would have went crazy. But it’s ok, you rolled with it.

You were the happiest I had seen you in years. You got to show the world what I always saw.

Life went off the rails and now it’s my turn to roll with it.

I’m forever thankful for allelitewrestling place in our lives the past 365 days. They have shaped who I am and who our family is.

Best thing I can say to everyone out there…. work hard, chase your dreams, roll with the punches, and bet on yourself.

You know what that means.”


Brodie Lee’s unfortunate passing was met with tributes and outpour of love from the fans and his peers. It was evident how much he meant to everyone that had worked with him, not just as a fellow wrestler but as a person too.

Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after.

His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
