Brodie Lee Jr., son of the late TNT Champion Brodie Lee, recently threw down a major challenge to former AEW wrestler Joey Janela during a GCW show. Despite being only 14 years old, Brodie Lee Jr. is eager to step into the ring and uphold his father’s wrestling legacy by proposing a match at the Spring Break event. When Janela declined, citing Brodie’s youth, the young wrestler did not relent.
In a striking moment, Brodie Lee Jr. demanded that Janela stop being “Megan Bayne’s b**ch,” referencing Janela’s real-life relationship with Bayne. This statement provoked a physical response from Janela, who slapped Brodie and delivered a piledriver. Janela appeared taken aback by his own reaction following the incident.
Remembering Brodie Lee: A Tribute from Tony Khan and the Wrestling Community
It has been five years since the passing of Brodie Lee, whose real name was Jon Huber, a figure deeply respected across WWE and AEW circles. Reflecting on this anniversary, AEW President Tony Khan shared an emotional tribute honoring the wrestler’s memory. Khan highlighted Brodie Lee’s devotion to his family—his wife Amanda and their sons Brodie and Nolan—as well as his passion for wrestling and connection with fans.
“5 years ago today, the world lost Jon Huber, a great man known to fans as Mr. Brodie Lee + Luke Harper. His family came first, his loving wife Amanda and their sons Brodie + Nolan. He loved wrestling, + he was an amazing wrestler. He loved you fans. Please keep him in your hearts.”
Brodie Lee Jr.’s recent challenge has sparked curiosity about whether Joey Janela will reconsider and face the young wrestler in a match at Spring Break, signaling the potential start of a new chapter in AEW’s ongoing storylines.
