On December 26, 2020, the wrestling world was shocked by the tragic news of Jon Huber's (Brodie Lee/Luke Harper) passing.
Jon's wife, Amanda, announced online that it was as a result of a "hard-fought battle with a non-COVID related lung issue." The outpouring of love, support, and appreciation from peers, friends, fans, promotions, and even hockey teams in the time since has been nothing short of remarkable.
Earlier today, Pro Wrestling Tees announced that all of the proceeds from Lee's merchandise sales - on both their website and Shop AEW - would go directly to his family.
CM Punk is following their lead, telling the online retailer to do the same with any of his products that they sell for the next month.

Punk worked with Brodie Lee - formerly known as Luke Harper - in WWE. They faced off several times during the fall of 2013, including a tag team match at Survivor Series which saw the former WWE Champion align with Daniel Bryan. Punk would step away from wrestling just two short months later.
