Incredibly sad news.

After giving it some time, I still don't quite know what to say. What can I say that hasn't already been said about Ben? I start to get angry at myself for not being able to help the situation at all. Then I get sad all over again knowing my friend is gone. My heart is truly… pic.twitter.com/r3YR14k2Ca

PAC is one of my favorite wrestlers ever. His work left such a lasting impact on me as a performer. I’ve shamelessly stolen his stuff since I was 16 years old and when anyone compared me to him in any way, I swear it was the absolute biggest compliment. I never knew him…
— Nathan Frazer (@WWEFrazer) September 28, 2026
Neville/PAC had more in-ring talent than most of us could ever dream of. It was a gift to see a card that had your name next to his. A guarantee of a good night.

Ben was as popular a guy in the locker room as I’ve ever known. As humble as they come and loved by all of us.

Last night I was driving and stopped at a light. I looked at my phone for a second, and the news of PAC’s passing came across my screen. I literally had to pull over and sit for a moment because I couldn’t believe it. ????

Every week before shows, I try to pick people’s brains. PAC was quiet, so I never went out of my way to approach him. But one day, he stopped me in catering, complimented my work ethic, and I got to tell him I’d been trying things I’d watched from his matches with Sami and others…

彼と初めて話したのは2018年アイルランド。英語圏での生活をしていると、日本語は驚くほどに耳に届く。彼との会話はいつも彼からの｢Otsukaresamade-su｣からスタートした。バックステージでは、彼の気配を全く感じないが、まるで風のように耳元にその言葉が届く。そして彼を探す。英語にちょうどよく…

PAC was always so welcoming anytime I interacted with him. Definitely a warm presence whenever he was around. ❤️

Benjamin Satterly (PAC/Neville) was such a kind and humble human being. Inside the ring, his breathtaking athleticism looked masterful and effortless. I have been extremely fond of Ben since his first day at NXT and everything he achieved from that point on was a heart filling… pic.twitter.com/VL8gc7AcR2

We only shared the ring once, but I’ll never forget it. In a world where people may have seen PAC up here and me down there, Ben never did. He made sure I got mine. pic.twitter.com/fLcT6irFRI

In 2007, we spent about a month together in Japan... To this day, it remains one of the highlights of my pro wrestling adventure. In huge part, thanks to PAC. He took care of us. Helped us navigate the Dragon Gate system & style, showed us around on our off days & so much more. pic.twitter.com/4Bi8pMc9Ut

PAC was, without question, one of the greatest professional wrestlers to ever do it. The kind of wrestler whose work will be watched, studied, and learned from by aspiring wrestlers for generations to come. His talent was extraordinary, and he gave so much to this profession.… https://t.co/aS9k6VG4df

He was an exemplary person who defined what it meant to be a professional. He was truly one of a kind, a rare breed. RIP, Ben. https://t.co/zXyaUvP2RN

I started in NXT/FCW maybe a week or so before @BASTARDPAC. The buzz surrounding his signing was massive, and honestly it didn’t even do it justice. I remember sending his highlights to everyone I knew. Generational talent and such a great person. Going to miss you brother. pic.twitter.com/L6ozzwkOHG

Not only was Ben the best wrestler in the world but he was the most humble person I ever met. I would tell him he was the best and would never accept it, even after putting on a 5 star match classic. Ben will be missed by everyone. Love you and I’ll miss you pic.twitter.com/K84YRboymC

My jaw was on the floor any time I had the privilege to watch him work. He moved in ways I didn’t previously think possible in the ring. But more importantly, he was a gentleman. Someone I truly respected as a man. Ben was loved by so…
Ben made me fall back in love with wrestling when I watched NXT in 2014.

He was a sensational athlete, underrated storyteller & a main-eventer. Authentic, believable & committed.
Superhuman in the ring. And listening to his friends talk about him, he was a super human out of it https://t.co/eBtCE8fcfv pic.twitter.com/Cg9paOl6Gt
RIP PAC. One of the greatest to ever do it. A true trailblazer of British Wrestling. He was beyond humble, even though he was truly excellent. We both adored him in ring and more importantly outside the ring. He was a real gentleman.

There is lack of general understanding that exists in regards to the physical, mental, and emotional toll professional wrestling takes on a human body.

One of the kindest people I've met in this business, I always hoped we'd work together again one day.
He trusted me to go and move his brand new car out of a car park that was closing and I was so stressed as I didn't pic.twitter.com/eT73mwMdrt
I was so nervous when I met him for the first time… we were ordering coffee, and he already knew my name????… every time I seen him after that it was a hug and a smile… glad I got a small opportunity to have worked with the Bastard! Our “hate” was our love ????
