For many people, AEW is the dream place to work, especially if they truly love professional wrestling. However, real life is unpredictable and no one knows what will happen the next day. Unfortunately, an AEW lead video engineer has passed away suddenly.
AEW’s lead video engineer, Brian Muster, is no longer with us. Muster had been part of the pro wrestling business for 13 years now. He leaves behind a fiancee as well as two young children.
A GoFundMe page with a goal of $75,000 was launched to help support his family. At the time of writing, the fundraiser has already surpassed its expected goal, crossing over $76,000.
The likes of Tony Khan, Chris Jericho, Ryan Barkan, Darby Allin, Amanda Huber, Nick Jackson, Kevin Sullivan, and many more have all donated to the cause.
This morning we lost an amazing person who made the world a better place. Brian Muster passed away this morning very unexpectedly. He leaves behind his fiancee and 2 young children.
Brian worked on many shows over the years; the last three years, he was an integral part of creating the look of AEW Wrestling by working as their Lead Video Engineer since its very first show. I traveled the world with Brian from Europe and Asia to the Indian Subcontinent, and he would always make you smile with his personality, smile and joy of life. I was blessed to watch him grow from a teenager just getting in the business of TV to one of the Elite Video Engineer’s in the country, and all who met Brian loved him.
He will be dearly missed and I hope you’ll find the time to say a prayer and/or make a donation of any size to this fund to provide some financial support for his family and their future.
Thank you for your time,
Greg Werner

Before joining AEW when the company was first formed in 2019, Muster was also the Lead Video Engineer for Impact Wrestling for over ten years. We would like to offer our deepest condolences to Muster’s loved ones during this sad time.
