On January 25th 1993 in met a great man who became a great friend and mentor. A proper man in and out of the ring. One of the true greats. Harley Race passed today. I will be forever grateful for the time I’ve spent with him.

Really sad to hear the passing of @8XNWAChampion
one of the greatest NWA Champions ever. He was a real man's man and one of the toughest guys I ever met. I loved watching him when he came to the Mid Atlantic area when I was a teen. He certainly made everything real. #RIPHarley pic.twitter.com/Ureia3aq9X

Learning under Harley Race at his school in Eldon, MO, in our early years, will forever be a career highlight.

Thank you, Harley. @8XNWAChampion ❤️ 🙏🏽 #RIPHarleyRace pic.twitter.com/42G0ZQbPzU

#RIP Harley Race. This is why we should not throw the term Legend around freely. It needs to be saved for people like Harley who truly are.
