The way he inspired so many in such a short duration speaks volumes about his contribution to the world of wrestling. Hence, fans feel it’s of utmost importance to unite and pay tribute to the superstar, irrespective of brand rivalry.

This sentiment was echoed in a tweet by Humble Wrestling. The tweet suggests that the lights of the stadium should be turned off so that fans can take out their flashlights, and reminisce about the old days.  

AEW recently put out a heartfelt message on their social media offering their condolences, and appreciating Wyatt’s contributions to the business.

Fans have always boldly shown their love for the 36-year-old. For some reason, the connection between Wyatt and the WWE universe was palpable. While some say it’s his aura and charm, it’s sometimes so much more than that.

A lot of them wanted AEW to do the right thing and pay tribute. Since Wembley Stadium has a capacity of more than 80k, the sight of flashlights going up for the legend would be a truly special one.

Some have stated how Tony Khan, being a true wrestling fan at heart, won’t shoot the idea down as he always understands his fans and will be happy to let them have their moment.

From leaving a lantern in the ring to playing his music or even hoping the fireflies take over, fans have expressed their desire for AEW to melt their heart at Wembley.
