As noted before, Rebel, real name Tanea Brooks, was diagnosed with terminal ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) this past May. AEW has released a special “Rebel Heart” merchandise with 100% of the profits going to support those affected by ALS. Rebel announced this past June that she has become an ambassador for the I AM ALS organization. AEW will also be holding a special themed “Rebel Heart” episode of AEW Dynamite on September 9 in Athens, Georgia in honor of Rebel and to raise money for the I Am ALS and the Team Gleason Foundation.
In recent weeks, several AEW talents and personalities have been participating and challenging their co-workers to participate in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge in support of Rebel. Among those who have participated includes Capt. Shawn Dean, Britt Baker, Renee Paquette, Kris Statlander, Thunder Rosa, Sting, Red Velvet, The Conglomeration, AEW CEO Tony Khan, Harley Cameron, and Mick Foley.
Anna Jay, Jungle Jack Perry, Luchasaurus, and Tony Schiavone recent participated in the challenge and posted videos on Instagram.
In their video, Jay, Perry, and Luchasaurus accepted the challenge from Nick Jackson and nominated Marko Stunt, HOOK, David Arquette, “Daddy Magic” Matt Menard, Nick Wayne, Lexy Nair, Julia Hart, Arkady Aura, and Chris Jericho.
In his video, Schiavone accepted the challenge from Renee Paquette and nominated Justin Roberts, Nigel McGuinness, Blake Christian, and Lee Johnson.
