The wrestling scene mourns the loss of Brodie Lee alias Luke Harper alias Jon Huber. The athlete died of a lung disease when he was only 41 years old.

The American wrestler Jon Huber (1979-2020) is dead. The athlete, who celebrated successes in the WWE as Luke Harper and fought as Brodie Lee in the AEW to the end, died at the age of only 41. As his wife Amanda announced on Instagram, Huber died "after a long fight with a lung disease" surrounded by his loved ones. His death is not related to Covid-19, emphasized the mother of his two children.

In 2012 Huber, aka Luke Harper, made his debut in WWE. He gained fame above all as a member of the Wyatt Family, which also included Bray Wyatt (33) and Erick Rowan (39). In 2017 they parted ways. Two years later Huber was released from his WWE contract at his own request and he was hired by AEW. He played his last fight on October 7, 2020.
