Kevin Greene was as intense an individual as I've ever been in the ring with. Our 6 Man match w/Kevin, Naitch, & Roddy from Slamboree '97 is one of the highlights of my career. I'm honored to been a part of that with him. Very sad to learn he passed away today.🙏#ripkevingreene pic.twitter.com/us8WldreMQ

RIP Kevin Greene. This is a real bummer. He was a defensive force. As a lifelong @RamsNFL fan I immediately was a big fan of his larger than life personality on and off the field. It’s fitting that he later got involved in pro wrestling. God speed sir.

I was waiting to post about Kevin Greene’s passing because I was hoping my mom would be able to find the photo of me and him together at Steelers training camp from when i was a child… he was ⚡️⚡️.
No luck on the search but nonetheless, I LOVED the way that man operated.. on

the football field, in and around the wrestling ring, coaching, life, etc., etc… everything the dude did was magnetic.
Just an unforgettable human.
Rest easy big man. You had a HELL OF A RUN. You done good. pic.twitter.com/qzFz0Hp5C7— Pat McAfee (@PatMcAfeeShow) December 22, 2020
I only met Kevin Greene once, a chance meeting at Universal Studios, where we talked while watching our children play at Fievel‘s playground. He loved his time in wrestling. https://t.co/1jytAbfP2Y
