🙏 Our heartfelt condolences go out to everyone across wrestling hurting over the tragic death of Benjamin Satterley (40), known as PAC in AEW and Neville in WWE. This tragic news broke mid-stream. If you want to skip directly to the moment the news broke, followed by our immediate reaction and tribute, fast-forward to the 68-minute mark.

Together with everyone in the live chat, we dedicated the rest of the broadcast to remembering PAC, honoring his career, and reflecting on our live reaction over the years to many other wrestlers who tragically died way too soon.

Earlier in the broadcast, we also covered:

• Tribute to Rick Achberger (aka "WWE Sign Guy"), who passed away Sunday at age 58
• Fallout from WWE's handling of Worlds Collide going head-to-head with AEW All Out
• Honest thoughts and reaction to Steven Borden's injury
• WWE's ongoing Seth Rollins dilemma and when it will end
• Roman Reigns sitting out RAW yet again ahead of Money in the Bank
• Industry rumors: Paramount shutting down HBO Max to migrate content to Paramount+
• The future of Tony Khan's unique relationship with Warner Bros. Discovery
• Live Q&A and listener chat

🎤The Sit-Down with Don Tony is a live interactive discussion show about pro wrestling that streams every SUNDAY night at 8:05PM ET. We cover everything going on in the world of pro wrestling (AEW, WWE/NXT, TNA, old school and more). We also discuss non-wrestling topics, sports and news. Nothing is ever out of bounds, and the entire show is 100% interactive.
