His daughter, Mercedes, has been a constant presence at his side, supporting him and the team in every way she can.
The news of Mercedes’ accident has deeply affected the wrestling community, and they have wasted no time in showing their support. A GoFundMe page was set up to help with the family’s medical expenses, and within a few days, it had already surpassed its goal. The outpouring of donations and messages of love and encouragement is a testament to the impact that Steve and his family have had on the wrestling community.
But it’s not just about financial support. Wrestlers from all over the country have been sending their well wishes and prayers to Mercedes and her family.
