Chilling final footage of PAC shows fellow wrestler talking about funeral hours before he was found dead

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) has shown the chilling final footage of PAC, real name Benjamin Satterley, after his final match just hours before he was found dead.

The British-born wrestler, who previously competed in WWE under the name Neville, was found ‘passed out’ in a vehicle in a CAVA parking lot near Chicago O’Hare International Airport on Sunday.

He was later pronounced dead at age 40 and his death is not being treated as suspicious by police while further examination is taking place to determine cause and manner of death.

On Saturday night, Satterley competed in the AEW All-Out pay-per-view at the NOW Arena. 

He lost to Andrade, then made another appearance later in the main event matchup between Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay, won by fellow British export Ospreay.

After that match, Moxley cut a powerful promo behind the scenes that has now been aired in which he passionately talked about learning to lose, wrestling being the ‘best job in the world’ and how he wanted to be remembered at his funeral. 

Moxley was stood alongside PAC, and the other members of their Death Rider stable, Marina Shafir, Daniel Garcia and Wheeler Yuta.

Moxley introduced the footage during a tribute at AEW’s latest show, saying it was ‘recorded Saturday night after All Out’ and ‘was the last time we saw Ben in our cameras’.

Moxley sat down in a baseball cap and grey hoodie saying ‘against the world’ as Satterley sat behind him and started speaking to the camera.  

‘Nothing really to say other than Will was just better than me tonight,’ he began. ‘Will Ospreay, that’s the best in that ring.

‘Gave everything I had. Took every shot I had to the best of my ability. I have no regrets. Will Ospreay is indomitable.

‘It’s a part of the game, though, man. You’re gonna lose. I don’t care who you are, you’re gonna lose.

‘You’ve gotta know how to lose. You’re gonna lose in wrestling. You’re gonna lose in life. You’re gonna lose people. You’re gonna lose opportunities.

‘You’re not gonna get what you deserve. You’re not always gonna get what you earned. Things aren’t always gonna go your way. What you gonna do? 

‘You’ve gotta just smile and get up tomorrow and do it again and just give it your best every single day. Because every single day is a gift. 

‘Do you know what it’s like to walk out in front of a sold-out crowd? Chicago, New York and Tokyo. Sold-out crowd like tonight, surrounded by your friends, teammates, these great people who pay their money that they work hard all week for to see you do what you do.

‘The opportunity to be out in this ring, doing this job. The best job in the world. There is nothing better than that.

‘Every day is a gift. I’m serious, bro. And he won tonight, he was the better man tonight. You are the best in the ring, congratulations.

‘All you have earned is more hard work. There’s two kinds of eulogies, at funerals. One of them is this is what this guy did. The other one is this is who this guy was.

‘When I’m dead and burned up and I’m ashes and I’m in the wind, I know which eulogy I want to have.

‘I know what I want people to say about me at my funeral and I know what I expect from you, Will.

‘I still don’t think anybody sees it, man. They don’t see what we have. What this place can be. What we’ve been gifted. What’s at stake. The future of professional wrestling, our craft, what we grew up dreaming of doing, what kids around the world, just like us, nobodies from nowhere, what they grow up dreaming of doing, right now. 

‘We have the future of pro wrestling in the palm of our hands. Whatever pro wrestling is going to be. It’s going to be what we make it.

‘Me and you, you, you, Will Ospreay, anybody else who has the guts to do what it takes to be great. To really be great. To really grab life by the balls.

‘To take this opportunity, to take this gift, do something with it. Do something with it.’

The promo has taken on a heartbreaking new perspective after Satterley’s sudden death, which has left AEW and the world of wrestling shocked. Tributes have poured in including across Wednesday’s emotional first AEW show since his passing.
