Experienced wrestler Bear Bronson revealed his feelings about his recent absence from AEW and ROH, not appearing for over four months. December 14, 2024, saw his last Ring of Honor competition which was later aired on the January 2 edition of ROH on HonorClub.
Bronson’s disappearance from the wrestling world seems connected to the arrest of his previous tag team companion, Bear Boulder, in January. Boulder was let go from AEW/ROH the following month. Despite this, Bronson has specified that he doesn’t believe he should bear the burden of another person’s mistakes.
Bronson poured his heart out on social media, sharing his disappointments and emotional impact of his forced leave.
“Giving my all. Overlooked & neglected. Just speaking my truth,” he admitted. “Feels like I’m being punished for someone else’s wrongdoings. But regardless, I’m doing everything within my power. My wife, family, fans, fellow wrestlers & others have rallied around, supporting & encouraging me to thrive independently.”
In spite of his television absence, Bronson drives ahead, relying on his network of support and waiting for another opportunity to demonstrate his wrestling prowess.

She went on to say, “This is a dream match for me. Even before getting my break in WWE, I had set my sights on Athena. I’m absolutely thrilled about it.”
