Charlie Kirk's shocking assassination has left a WWE Hall of Famer devastated. Kirk, a political activist, was shot at the Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on Wednesday, as he was addressing an audience. He was rushed to the hospital, where he was declared dead.

The assassination of the 31-year-old Kirk has left his supporters in mourning, and he leaves behind a wife, Erika, and two children. WWE Hall of Famer Ted DiBiase also took to X (Twitter) to post a video, where he expressed grief over the loss.

"I never knew Charlie Kirk...but I knew of him. I think that everybody knows by now, what happened to him is just devastating. He got shot, killed. He leaves a wife and two little kids, it's just horrifying and I just want the people to know that I'm praying for his family. I'm praying for them going forward. You have got a wife who has lost her husband and is now left to raise two children on her own," he said.

DiBiase then prayed for Charlie Kirk's family and asked God for strength to his wife as she raises the two children.

Lilian Garcia was left shocked after the news of Charlie Kirk's assassination

WWE in-ring announcer Lilian Garcia also shared her feelings after Charlie Kirk's assassination. She posted a video on Instagram saying that her heart was "heavy" over what happened and she was left shocked.

"Charlie did not deserve this; his family did not deserve this. But I’m hoping that this is a wake-up call that we can all start realizing that what makes us unique is that we are going to have differences of opinions, and we can discuss them, and we can agree, and we can disagree, and then we can move on and live our lives as best as we can," she said in the video.

Lilian said that following the attacks of 9/11, she saw a united country, but 24 years later, she sees people "bickering" because they have different opinions.

About the author

Sherjeel Malik

Sherjeel Malik is a writer at Sportskeeda and covers pro wrestling. He was hooked on the product from the moment he saw The Hardy Boyz jumping off ladders during the Attitude Era. While he comes from an engineering background, Sherjeel’s love for pro wrestling and content writing led him to pursue a career in sports journalism. Before assuming his current role at Sportskeeda, Sherjeel worked at other reputable organizations for five years.

While writing articles, he ensures that he only relies on credible sources for information and covers relevant subjects that do not project an agenda against a particular person or association. WWE legend Paul Heyman once shared Sherjeel’s work on his social media handle.

Sherjeel’s earliest memory of pro wrestling is watching Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker square off for the WWE Title in the main event of a pay-per-view in 1998. His favorite wrestlers are Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy. While he admires Orton for his character work as a heel, he looks up to Jeff because of his unique wrestling style and risk-taking ability.

If he could go back to the Attitude Era, Sherjeel would like to manage Ken Shamrock and be his mouthpiece. He feels Shamrock’s promo skills prevented him from becoming a main event-level act in WWE. Hence, he would like to help the UFC Hall of Famer get over with fans.

When not writing about pro wrestling, he likes to read classics and fiction books.
