R.I.P Andy. You were always so kind to me. The last conversation we had wasn’t even too long ago. Thank you for some of the awesome memories you left me with. You will be very missed my friend ❤️🩹

Andy was legitimately one of the best human beings I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing, and I’m so incredibly grateful to call him my friend. I’m going to miss the insane texts we’d send each other and the way we managed to make everyone around us uncomfortable every single… pic.twitter.com/eg0E2F3Yq5

Andy was an incredible person to be around. He had permanent aux privileges because his taste in music was impeccable.
He always knew what song to play and when!
IYKYK
Rest in Peace to an amazing human being 💔

I remember this very well. After the match, Andy was crying to me with happy tears, and that started my water works as well. Andy is one of the kindest people I have ever met, with a pure heart and soul. I will miss you my friend. Prayers to ur family and loved ones. 🙏🏼❤️… https://t.co/L9QvHOZEgx

Don’t think I’ve ever met anyone inside or outside of the business that was as positive, kind, and more gentle than Andy. He always put things into perspective for me. So many uplifting conversations. The world needs more humans like him. RIP brother. You will be dearly missed pic.twitter.com/MxqMpXuG8n

Seeing all this love for Andy everywhere,
He had twice as much for everyone else.How that’s even possible I’ll never understand.
One of the best ways we can honor him is by learning how to be that same light in the room as he was.
I think one of his greatest traits was his…

What stood out to me when I first met Andy is that his voice did not match his appearance. And if you’ve ever spoken to him, you know. You have this giant, scary looking dude, but when he speaks you can feel the warmth, the kindness, the humility. RIP Andy, it’s so unfair 💔

I just saw Andy and Pepper at an XICW show last month. We haven't seen each other in years and we were able to have a great discussion. He was such a genuine guy. My thoughts and condolences are with his family and friends ❤️. Gone way too soon.

I didn’t know Andy’s condition last night. I held off from texting assuming he was getting bombarded. Learned of his passing, and I am just sick with devastation. We bonded years ago over music, and became close through wrestling. A better dude, you won’t find. Godspeed my friend pic.twitter.com/QM7wshp7KR
