Sad to hear the news about Butch Reed's passing. I wonder how different WWE history would look, had Butch won the IC title back in '87 instead of the @OfficialHTM. #RIPButchReed

RIP “Hacksaw” Butch Reed. I was a fan of his work from the first time I saw him. Loved his jabs. The Team of DOOM with Ron was my favorite team in WCW at a time where WCW was stacked with great teams. Thank you for the years of entertainment sir!

I’m bothered by this news. I really liked Butch always laughing and cutting up. When I seen him last time was in New York a couple years ago. Prayers for family and friends. Wow folks cherish those you care about. This life is fragile. Cherish each moment. pic.twitter.com/pyAdOOQsu4

One of my favorite tag teams of all time. 100% bad ass. My first night in the wrestling business (almost 30 years ago) was spent with Butch Reed-I asked him about the story about him riding a horse into a bar, it’s true-what a good time. RIP Butch Reed. pic.twitter.com/S2RmoVMwuh

Saddened by the passing of “Hacksaw” Butch Reed.

Thankful we had the opportunity to have him in the office last October to reunite with Ron & Teddy and spend an evening signing autographs and telling some classic stories.

Rest In Peace. pic.twitter.com/HGEE6QQ4O2

Hacksaw Butch Reed was an individual that achieved success in wrestling. Holding championships everywhere he went, including here in WLW. His contributions in this sport are still being felt today, and will never be forgotten and always appreciated.

Sorry to hear that Butch Reed passed. He was a big, strong & very rugged dude between the ropes. I never had the chance to know him but I was a fan of his work for years. #RIPButchReed https://t.co/hlTXHA0CKf

Friends unfortunately we lost a legend today #ButchReed. Huge loss. Stevie had the opportunity a month or so back to interview him & we were getting ready to release that to you.
The interview will be out at a more appropriate time. #RIPButchReed pic.twitter.com/3aM450I0Sy

I never met Butch Reed, so my take on him is from when I was kid & a fan. I can’t say I was a “fan” of Butch Reed’s back then. He was a heel after all, at a time when if you were good at you job people didn’t like you. He had a credibility though, that you had to respect. #RIP
