We've lost the greatest wrestler in the history of Western New York, but more importantly we all lost a dear friend and an amazing family man.
Jon was undoubtedly the nicest guy in the business and left a positive impact everywhere he went. We'll miss you Huber.

We are devastated to hear of the passing of Anthony Gaines. He was a remarkable performer in the ring who also touched the hearts of many lives outside of it.
You will always be loved and never be forgotten. Without a doubt, you were authentically "None of a Kind".
