AEW President Tony Khan is known to be one of the kindest and most generous individuals in the world of professional wrestling, despite his divided reputation lately. That’s why it comes as no surprise he made a substantial donation to assist Cash Wheeler’s Hurricane Helene relief fund.
Hurricane Helene has had a major impact on wrestling events, leading to cancellations and postponements in Florida, North Carolina, and other states. The storm has caused significant damage, with at least 64 people reported dead. Millions of homes are still without power, making life even harder for those in the affected areas. Wrestlers, promotions, and fans are all feeling the effects of this disaster as recovery efforts continue.
TNA Wrestling first postponed its shows in Spartanburg because of the hurricane but later canceled them completely. Cash Wheeler then revealed the severe impact of the storm on his hometown in North Carolina.
To help those affected, Cash Wheeler started a GoFundMe campaign to gather supplies like food and water for people in need. His efforts will focus on his hometown of Old Fort, North Carolina, and nearby areas. All donations and shares will go toward supporting recovery efforts.
Tony Khan donated $10,000 to the GoFundMe that Cash Wheeler started for hurricane relief in North Carolina. Other wrestling stars, including Chris Jericho, Nick Jackson, Bayley, and MJF, have also made contributions to support the cause. At the moment, the campaign has raised $43,834 out of a goal of $25,000 goal, so it’s clear many names in the world of professional wrestling want to help North Carolina.
Even with the challenges, we are hopeful that Cash Wheeler’s hometown and other towns in North Carolina will recover from the damage caused by Hurricane Helene. Wheeler is working hard to help with relief efforts by gathering supplies and donations for those in need. His commitment to supporting his community is a positive step toward rebuilding and with people like Tony Khan continuing to donate so much money, fans are hopeful the survivors will get the relief they need.
