Braun Strowman shared an emotional moment with Bray Wyatt's son and Brodie Lee's sons.
December 26 marked the four-year anniversary of Brodie Lee's passing. The former WWE and AEW star passed away on December 26, 2020.
After the December 27 episode of WWE SmackDown went off the air, Jey Uso addressed the crowd while he was in the ring with Sami Zayn and Braun Strowman. Uso noted that Bray Wyatt's widow JoJo and their children were in attendance.
Strowman then went over and carried Nash into the ring. He addressed the crowd and opened up about losing Wyatt and Brodie Lee, also known as Luke Harper. He stated that his love for the kids, the fans, and wrestling kept him going through these hard times.
"This is my godson, Knash, and his beautiful sister, Hyrie over there and JoJo, the whole family. I want you to say thank y’all for the continued love and support for my family outside of here with this. I’ve had an unbeliever rough couple of last years. I thought my career was over with my neck injury. I’ve lost two of my best friends in this industry in the last four years, and what keeps me moving and doing this every night are these kids, and every single one of y’all give me the strength to push me through this unbelievable pain that I’m in because I freaking love this, I love them, and I love everything single one of all. I wish you many, many blessings in 2025," Strowman said.
Uso then said that Brodie Lee's wife and kids were in attendance. He encouraged them to get in the ring, and he noted that this was the next Bloodline. He also referred to the group as the Wyatt Family.
"We also got Luke Harper’s wife and kids in the house. Hey, you can hop the gate. Come up in here, boy. This the Wyatt Family for real. This the next Bloodline for real," Uso said.
Knash Rotunda, Brodie Huber, and Nolan Huber got in the ring, and they yeeted with Strowman, Uso, and Zayn.
