I’ll put you against someone better than you every night” and many other major things he taught & helped me with I wouldn’t have had this charmed life. Rest well old rogue

It can't be overstated how important Brian was to the careers of so many and to the overall health of British Pro Wrestling. At his peak, he was running more than 350 shows a year, and most of that time he was on the road too...
I never had the pleasure of meeting Brian Dixon but so many of the wrestlers I’ve worked with and know have told amazing stories of going to the UK and working for Brian.

It was almost like a right of passage in this business to do a few weeks with Dixon.
RIP to a legend ???? https://t.co/JJE94RBjTH

Brian Dixon was one of those British Wrestling figures you just assumed would live forever. Lot of opportunities and learning for some of your favorite wrestlers under his All Star shows.

I can never repay what Brian done for me. He took on a 16 year old boy, helped me personally & professionally & without his mentorship I wouldn't be where I am today pic.twitter.com/NAF2738CJ8

I owe everything I am as a wrestler today to Brian Dixon. He gave a young 19 year old kid the opportunity to live a dream.

I’m heartbroken.
To the man that gave me my start in wrestling, from the all star cheerleader to my first run on the camps, to welcoming me back with open arms when I lost my contract but most importantly for treating me like family for the last 24 years 
I love you B.
