AEW wrestler Pac dies at 40 days after final match

All Elite Wrestling announced Sunday that Benjamin Satterley, who performed under the ring name Pac, died at 40 years old. The British-born wrestler’s final appearance was at the All Out pay-per-view on Saturday, where he faced AEW national champion Andrade at Chicago’s NOW Arena and was later involved in the main-event segment featuring Jon Moxley and champion Will Ospreay. No cause of death has been disclosed.

"Benjamin Satterley defined excellence, as a beloved husband & friend to his many loved ones, + in his wrestling knowledge, skill, unprecedented athleticism, professionalism, consistency + dedication to the sport that he loved & traveled the world to pursue," AEW president Tony Khan wrote on X.

AEW’s statement described Satterley as a native of Newcastle upon Tyne who began his career in 2004 and performed for multiple promotions worldwide, noted for his high-flying style and signature Black Arrow corkscrew splash. The company said he signed with AEW in 2019, held several championships—including the inaugural AEW All-Atlantic title and two AEW Trios titles—and was a former two-time WWE Cruiserweight champion, NXT champion and two-time NXT Tag Team champion.

The promotion expressed condolences to Satterley’s family, friends and fans.
