During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com talked about the death of wrestling promoter Jim Crockett Jr.:

“So what happened, he had health issues and he contracted COVID, and essentially because of the previous health issues and getting COVID, it put him in the hospital and it got worse and worse. As we talked about the other day, he had kidney issues before and he was on kidney dialysis and his kidneys and other internal organs were shutting down. He made the call to get off dialysis and essentially knowing that was it, he knew it was a matter of time. I think it’s been pretty clear for a couple of days.”

Numerous wrestling personalities commented on the death of Crockett Jr. including Ric Flair and Tony Schiavone:

I Moved To Charlotte In 1974 With $150 In My Pocket. Jimmy Crockett Was My Friend And My Boss. I Can’t Put Into Words How Much He Did For Me And My Career. His Influence And Persistence Helped Me Become The World Champion. My Thoughts And Prayers Are With The Crockett Family! 🙏🏻 pic.twitter.com/qbcyubrtkI

Today my heart breaks with the passing of Jim Crockett. Everything I have become, professionally is because of him and his family. His sister, Frances, hired me to do baseball in 1982, a year later, Jimmy decided to give me a shot at wrestling. He made me what I am today. pic.twitter.com/jbGZuzYeQ4
