On Sunday, former AEW and WWE wrestler, Ben Sutherley (PAC and Adrian Neville respectively) has died aged 40. Tributes were paid to the British wrestler from around the world by people who worked with Satterlee in various companies. Promotions he never wrestled for, like the NWA and MLW, also paid tribute to The Man That Forgot Forgot.
While WWE has not officially acknowledged Satterlee’s death as of this writing, Paul “Triple H” Levesque posted about him on social media Monday morning. He posted a picture of himself and Satterlee from NXT Arrival and talked about working with him in the early days of NXT.
“Saddened by the passing of Ben Satterly, known in WWE as Neville. I had the pleasure of working with Ben in the early days of NXT. From his arrival in NXT, this moment marked the beginning of a new era for that brand and the men and women… and Ben was the main force behind it. He was an extraordinary talent and even kinder to his family.
