After joiningAEWin March 2020, Huber reverted to his pre-WWE name of Brodie Lee and was unveiled as "The Exalted One", the previously anonymous leader ofThe Dark Orderstable. Adding the prefix "Mr." to his name, he assumed the gimmick of a suit-wearing corporate executive who denied allegations that The Dark Order was a cult, and often harshly punished his disciples for petty transgressions.[196][209]The character drew comparisons to McMahon due to displaying traits similar to ones often attributed to McMahon, such as disliking peoplesneezingin his presence,[214]but Huber denied this and instead stated that it was inspired bymafia films.[215]

Other media[edit]

In 2017, Huber appeared as Pitchfork Perry in an episode of theperiod dramaseriesDamnation.[216]In 2018, he played Lachlan Allsopp in the action-horror filmMohawk.[217]Under the Luke Harper name, he is a playable character in the video gamesWWE 2K15,[218]WWE 2K16,[219]WWE 2K17,[220]WWE 2K18,[221]WWE 2K19,[222]andWWE 2K20.[223]And inAEW Fight Foreverunder his Mr. Brodie Lee name as a legend.

A multitude of wrestlers and wrestling personalities paid tribute to Huber with previously untold stories onsocial media,most of which shared a running theme of him being devoted to his wife and children while going out of his way to guide and support other wrestlers. His formerWyatt Familyteammates also paid tribute:Bray Wyattcalled Huber his "best friend, brother, [and] partner",[242]Erick Rowansaid that Huber "meant more to [him] than he will ever know",[243]andBraun Strowmanreferred to Huber as "one of the most unselfish men [he has] ever met and an amazing husband and father".[244]Cody Rhodes,against whom Huber wrestled his final match, called the match "an honor and a privilege and an experience so ferociously humbling".[245]Big E,who was particularly close with Huber and his son Brodie and was requested to be present alongside Rhodes with Amanda when informing Brodie of his father's death,[246]spoke of how the professional wrestling industry as a whole came together to mourn the loss of a performer deemed to have made a personal impact on the careers and lives of many of his colleagues, stating, "I feel a real brotherhood. In that I have so many guys that I've worked with, who hit me up, who cried with me, who reached out to me, and that's beautiful. It really made me think, 'Man, we have something special in our industry.'"[247]After many of the stories about Huber had been widely shared,Randy Ortonstated, "You all have heard about how much we all respected [Huber], about how much we all enjoyed his presence. It is a fact."[248]

The December 28, 2020, episode ofWWE Rawopened with an "In Memory of Jon Huber ('Luke Harper')" graphic, as did the December 30 episode ofWWE NXTand the January 1, 2021, episode ofWWE SmackDown.Performers and commentators onRawpaid tribute by using some of Huber's catchphrases, such as commentatorTom Phillipswelcoming the viewers to the show by exclaiming "it's Monday, you know what that means" andWWE ChampionDrew McIntyrebeginning his promo by stating "it's Monday and you know what that means [...] yeah, yeah, yeah".Xavier Woods,who wore an armband with "Brodie" written on it, performed Huber's signature taunt and finishing move during an eight-man tag team match.[249]Over the next week, the promotion uploaded videos with various WWE wrestlers honoring and speaking of their memories with Huber.[250][251]On January 11,The New Day(Big E,Kofi Kingston,and Xavier Woods) dedicated theirFeel the Powerpodcast to Huber, which also featuredCesaro,Tyler Breeze,and Erick Rowan speaking about Huber; a video version of the podcast was put on theWWE Network.[252]The next day on the WWE Network, the promotion added a new entry into theirBest of WWEseries entitled "Best of Luke Harper", an anthology showcasing several of Huber's matches in WWE, which also included comments by various wrestlers involved in those matches speaking of their time working with Huber.[253]At the2021 Royal Rumble,The New Day wore custom ring gear honoring Huber, later auctioning off the gear with all the proceeds going to Foodlink, a nonprofit foodbank based in Huber's hometown Rochester.[254]

AtWrestleMania 37in April 2021, Bray Wyatt (who had largely been off television since before Huber's death) honored Huber by shouting Huber's "yeah, yeah, yeah" catchphrase during his match.[255]Wyatt later died from a heart attack on August 24, 2023, at the age of 36, leaving Rowan as the only surviving original Wyatt Family member.

The 236th episode ofThe Young Bucks'YouTubeseriesBeing The Elite(BTE) was titled "Brodie", featuring a compilation of Lee'sBTEappearances.[256]The following episode was titled "Tribute", featuring behind the scenes clips from his Celebration of Life memorial show.[257]Since then, a painting of Huber has been present in The Dark Order's usual meeting room for their segments onBTE.The Dark Order members also continue to often wear Brodie Lee shirts and "RIP Brodie" armbands.[258]

The December 30 episode ofAEW Dynamite,which was aspecial episodetitled "Brodie Lee Celebration of Life",featured matches and segments with fellow wrestlers honoring and paying tribute to Huber and his family. Every match on the card featured members of Huber's faction,The Dark Order.[259]The memorial show began with the entire AEW roster onstage and commentatorJim Rosssaying, "It's Wednesday and you know what that means", followed by aten-bell salute.[260]In the middle of the show, Huber's former long-time WWE tag team partner Erick Rowan, now under the name Erick Redbeard, made his AEW debut and held up a sign which said, "Goodbye for now, my brother. See you down the road." At the end of the show, Huber's widow and son left his wrestling boots and a purple bandana in the middle of the ring. As Huber was a former TNT Champion, AEW retired the red strap version of the title belt that had been used up to that point in honor of Huber, and presented the belt to Huber's son Brodie, with AEW President and CEOTony Khanstating that Lee's son was "TNT Champion for life". Khan also regarded Huber as the greatest TNT Champion.[261]A tribute video with "Ol' '55"byTom Waitsclosed the show.[262]Khan purchased the rights to the song inperpetuity,which he did "so the tribute will last forever".[263]AEW has since adopted "it's Wednesday night, (and) you know what that means" as the standard introduction for episodes ofAEW Dynamite,as further tribute to Huber. As Huber was a prominent figure for AEW during its time atDaily's PlaceinJacksonville, Floridaduring the COVID-19 pandemic and with AEW's return to the venue in January 2024 for the two-partHomecomingspecial, AEW again paid tribute to Huber, airing a video package during the event and had three multi-person tag team matches with current and former members of The Dark Order.[264]

During the tribute show,Pro Wrestling Tees'Shop AEWstore released a T-shirt in memory of Lee with all proceeds benefiting The Huber Family.[265]In less than two hours, it set a new record for most shirts sold within 24 hours, breakingSting's previous record.[266]In just under four hours, it became the highest selling T-shirt of 2020, breakingOrange Cassidy's previous record.[267]

Night 1 ofNew Japan Pro-Wrestling'sWrestle Kingdom 15started with commentatorKevin Kellysaying "it's January 4th, you know what that means" and dedicating the broadcast to Lee.[268]In March 2021, wrestling journalistDave Meltzerpresented theShad Gaspard/Jon Huber Memorial Award,named after Huber and fellow wrestlerShad Gaspard,who died in May 2020 while saving his young son from drowning, which is dedicated to people involved in professional wrestling who make positive contributions to society.[269]

In August 2021,CM Punkrevealed that Huber's death and how well his illness was kept secret amongst the AEW locker room out of respect inspired him to end his seven-year hiatus from wrestling, which began when he became disillusioned with WWE.[270]Bryan Danielson also spoke about how the Brodie Lee Tribute Show inspired him to sign for AEW.[271]

In September 2021, one week after winning the WWE Championship, Big E celebrated with The New Day and thanked the fans for their support and from "one incredible friend above" as the fans began to chant Huber's ring name.[272]
