holy crap this is easily the best Tony Award speech of the entire night. hell yes to all of this
"This is dedicated to the beautiful tapestry of immigrant families who make this country really special. May you one day not have to audition for the empathy that should be freely given by this country that benefits from your beauty. To the queer and trans communities that always will exist, no matter what people in power try to take away from them. To the people of Palestine who deserve to live a free life – a full life – without occupation. ... If there's one thing we can learn from vampires, it's that life is short, but that's its gift. Find beauty in the ephemeral and gratitude in what is not promised."
—Ali Louis Bourzgui, winning Featured Actor in a Musical for The Lost Boys
Just to be clear I have no idea what I'm doing in the wrestling business anymore. Call me back in two business weeks and maybe I'll have figured it out (but probably not).
I truly love deathmatch wrestling to my soul and have gotten to have some amazing experiences because of them and many wrestlers in the scene are truly one of a kind, wonderful human beings who deserve all the love and praise. Please keep supporting it.
3/3
Secondly, I am begging all fans to not let all the stories that were posted yesterday ruin your spirit for or love of deathmatch wrestling. I saw so many posts of people being upset with the industry but the even smaller scene of deathmatches.

Hi - First, I want to say thank you for the kindness you have shown my family, especially yesterday. It was incredibly hard to hear what was said about my husband, but I'm forever grateful for the immense support and love you have all shown him (any myself by proxy).

Saying “that’s karma” to someone with ALS is disgusting and disrespectful. Terra is going through enough on her own and she needs people that are going to genuinely support her and Jeff and Milo.
Anyone saying anything negative about Jeff is an asshole. Straight up.
Not naming promoters and workers out of respect but there are definitely people who follow me that remember this shit. It was most of our first time there and this woman gave at least one person in the locker room a panic attack she was screaming for so long and loud.
Crissy once came into the locker room of a show I reffed at H2O and screamed for five minutes straight at us for all being useless,awful people for knocking over a small picture frame.
Pretty sure this is worse than knocking over a picture frame, Crissy! Fuck you.
