Kevin Owens dedicated his match on Smackdown Live last night to the AIW promotion’s co-owner Chris Bryan. Bryan passed away on Monday evening.

Owens posted a memorial to his longtime friend who he first met in 2013. Here are some excerpts from the tribute:

“It usually takes me a while to warm up to people, but I remember liking John and Chris right away. I knew nothing of them personally but their love and passion for wrestling was palpable and it made me want to work for them more often immediately.”

“Chris left us way too soon, but seeing the outpouring of love for him from people all over the world linked in some way to wrestling, be it as fans, performers or something else, has been amazing.”

“Good bye, Chris…We love you, buddy. Rest well and tell Dusty I said hi.”
