WWE Backstage Interviewer Byron Saxton shared the following heartbreaking update on Instagram:
“I’d like to take a moment to tell you about a wonderful lady named Judy Powell Michels.
I first met Judy during the early days of my wrestling career in Central Florida where she religiously attended our Southern Championship Wrestling events.
Since then, Judy would become not just a friend but one of my biggest supporters throughout the years.
Judy was a warm human being with a wonderful sense of humor. Despite her severe health struggles over the past year, her optimism and smile never took a backseat.
Rest well Judy, you are now in God’s hands. Thank you for being you.”
Below are the photos that he shared:
Byron Saxton signed a developmental contract with WWE back in 2007. His last match took place in FCW in 2012.
After that, he transitioned into a full-time commentator. He later also became a Ring Announcer and Backstage Interviewer.
On an episode of RAW in 2021, Saxton pinned Corey Graves to win the 24/7 Championship, which is the only title Saxton has held in WWE.
