WWE has many unsung heroes: Incredible men and women that perhaps aren’t seen on screen, yet truly make everything we do shine. Jim is unquestionably one of those, and has been a respected member of our family for years.

My thoughts are with Jim Shank’s family during this time. Jim was one of those rare people whose kindness spoke louder than words, an unsung hero backstage in WWE. Jim was always thinking of others, always showing up for everyone else. His memory will stay in our hearts. https://t.co/710TWB3Nd8

As PWInsider.com noted yesterday, Shank, a longtime WWE employee dating back to 1999 working in the production realm, passed away at the age of 60 following a battle with cancer.
We continue to send our deepest sympathies to Shank's family, friends and co-workers.
