I remember sitting in the crowd at UWA Hardcore in 2006. Suddenly the lights went out & that kill bill track hit and 700+ fans lost their minds, myself included.

I remember seeing Homicide defeat Bryan Danielson at Final Battle.

It’s hard for me to decide what my favorite moment of his career was. The time he and Ki compromised Chasyn Rance to a permanent end has to be up there, though.

Thank you, Homicide. pic.twitter.com/xxVgZnoIRa

The pop when Homicide kicked out of Bryan Danielson’s SMALL PACKAGE in New York en route to becoming ROH Champion is still one of the loudest I’ve ever heard live.

And he was always cool to me because Eddie told him I was cool. All the best, to Eddie’s friend. https://t.co/sz3qai1OQy

Today is Uncle Homicide’s last match! He’s had an impactful career in NWA, TNA, ROH, and many other places. He’s an absolute legend whose career will be remembered!

Homicide is also a great dude. In an industry full of fakes and frauds, Homicide has always kept it real with me.… pic.twitter.com/NJXhamXHxM

Homicide rules. The Colt Cabana feud and his journey to final battle 06 is some of the best stuff ROH ever did.

Homicide is a real one. Bummed to see him go, but health for your family is the most important thing.

Thanks for everything you’ve done, and all the times we’ve tagged. https://t.co/O4KNKjcqgX
