I spent some time with Droz in ECW and we actually did some road trips together. Such a good dude that cracked me up a bunch. Sad day. Condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Droz!

Rest in Peace Darren Drosdov. I was privileged to work him once, on Shotgun Saturday Night, and he was a true gentleman, allowing me to pitch ideas at a time that others might not have. Thank you Droz.

Very sad to hear of Droz passing. Was a really a great guy. Career was sadly cut short due to a tragic situation in the ring. Battled for years, was always smiling and positive. RIP pic.twitter.com/n0t3Z00BJK
