RIP. Tragedy in the wrestling world: global ring star dies suddenly

The global wrestling community has been rocked by a sudden loss.

Details: Renowned English wrestler Benjamin Satterley, who achieved worldwide fame under the ring name Pac, has died at the age of 40. The tragedy was officially announced by leading American promotion All Elite Wrestling.

The Newcastle native’s death came as a complete shock to the industry: just one day before the tragic news, the athlete had competed in a match at the major All Out event in Chicago, challenging for a championship title. The exact circumstances and cause of death have not been disclosed at this time.

Satterley began his in-ring career in 2004 and, over the course of two decades, earned acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic. In WWE, the British athlete performed under the name Adrian Neville, holding the NXT Championship and the Cruiserweight Championship. After joining All Elite Wrestling in 2019, he became the promotion’s first-ever International Champion and won tag team titles on multiple occasions.

It is worth noting that, thanks to his extraordinary leaping ability and signature Black Arrow move, the Briton earned the fan-given nickname “The Man Gravity Forgot.” AEW president Tony Khan and numerous stars from across the industry expressed their deepest condolences to the athlete’s family and loved ones.
