Over 500 people attended. Several wrestlers were there, including Joey Ryan, Kofi Kingston, Shelton Benjamin, John Morrison, Taya Valkyrie, and Eli Drake.
As a note, everyone was wearing masks, but just took them off for the photo, according to Bryan Alvarez.
GoFundMe Campaign
A GoFundMe campaign to support Gaspard’s family also surpassed its $100,000 goal today, a couple of days after its launch.
