Chris Hero has been part of the AEW family for a while now but he has some unfortunate news to share as he announced that his beloved mother has passed away recently in a lengthy message.
Chris Hero took to Twitter and shared the sad news that his mother has passed away after a short but tough battle with cancer. He noted that his mother Mary Lou Bryant was born in 1948 in Nrnberg, Germany, to a young German woman, Anneliese, and an American serviceman, William. Shortly after she was born, the family moved to the United States, where Mary Lou grew up in Kettering, Ohio. Life wasnt always easy for her, being half German in America during the 1950s and 60s, but she worked hard and graduated from Fairmont East High School in 1966.
Hero added that his mother always dreamed of being a mom, but it wasnt easy. After suffering two miscarriages, she decided to try one last time with her husband, Larry Spradlin. Chris was supposed to be born on her birthday, January 30. However, on Christmas Eve, complications arose and he was born early, weighing 6 pounds, 7 ounces. From that moment, Mary Lou dedicated herself to giving her son the best life possible. She made sure he always felt loved and supported, often going out of her way to make him happy.
Chris Hero remembers his childhood as full of fun times with his mom. His mother took him to many wrestling shows, hunted for collectibles with him, and spent hours driving him around while they laughed and listened to music. She was always there for him and cheered him on in everything he did, even when he decided to become a wrestlera dream she backed 100%.
Hero also thanked everyone who has supported him and his mother recently. He mentioned friends who cared for her dog and helped her with daily needs, as well as his AEW family, who showed him kindness during this very difficult time in his life.
Chris Hero admitted that he feels both sadness and gratitude. Hes heartbroken that he cant ask his mom questions or make new memories with her, but he is thankful for the extra time they had together recently and that she is no longer in pain. Most of all, he remains grateful that she always let him know how much she loved and was proud of him.
