Without the knowledge you gave me over the years I would not be the wrestler I am today. You always took the time to teach me and work with me in the ring, and for that I’ll always be grateful.
Truly an amazing mind and talent.
Thank you, Jimmy. https://t.co/8IYPGPfqLn— Priscilla Kelly (@priscillakelly_) November 29, 2020

Jimmy is someone I’ve learned immensely from in my career. Having someone care so much about seeing you succeed is rare, and it’s something that Jimmy always did for me and all of his students and colleagues. Thank you Jimmy. We will never stop learning from you! https://t.co/UxyifzwfoQ
