WWE Hall of Famer and current AEW commentator, Jim Ross recently mourned the passing away of his friend. He took to his X and announced to the world that his friend since the last four decades, Dennis Brent, who was also his colleague back in WWE and WCW, has passed away.
“So sad that my 40 year friend Dennis Brent has passed away. We worked together at WCW and WWE. Dennis will be missed. Rest in peace my friend. .”
Dennis Brent passed away on August 11, 2024. He is survived by his beloved wife Lynn, sister, Susie Solomon (Hal), and his brother-in-law, Keith Gran (Becky), his nieces, Lindsay Solomon and McKenzie Gran and nephews Justin Solomon, Gerson Gran (Emily) and Gabriel Gran. Moreover, Dennis has also left behind his great-nephews, Mason and Rylan, and his great-niece, Lyla.
Back in the early 1980s, Dennis Brent founded his own computer software company for the Radio Shack TRS-80, which he later sold. He then had a two-decade-long career in professional wrestling. He worked as a ringside photographer and head of publications for World Class Wrestling in Dallas, World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in Atlanta, and finally for the WWF (now WWE) in Stamford, CT.
As his family continues to mourn his loss, a graveside service was held on Wednesday, August 14, at Temple Emanu-El Cemetery, with Rabbi Steve Fisch officiating.
