In a really sad development, NXT is Superstar Kyle O'Reilly's mother passed away this past week on November 29th after a lengthy battle with Cancer.

The current NXT Tag Team Champion (the title won by Undisputed Era an unaired NXT Taping) took to Instagram to jolt down a heartfelt tribute to his deceased mother, Janie Elizabeth Greenwood:

On Wednesday November 29, Heaven gained another angel. After a short yet courageous battle with Cancer my beloved Mother has passed away. She was the sweetest and kindest woman I've ever known and encouraged me to chase my dreams. She was a devoted wife, Mother and nurse who dedicated her life to caring for those in need. I'm so proud to be your son. Rest In Peace Janie Elizabeth Greenwood aka Mom. "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always..."

The former 3-time ROH Tag Team Champion is currently tearing the house down at NXT as part of the Undisputed Era faction that also includes his friends from Ring of Honor, Bobby Fish and Adam Cole.

Fish and O'Reilly recently won the Tag Team Championship from SAnitY at the latest round of NXT TV tapings. The duo became the first tag team in wrestling history to win the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight, ROH World, and NXT Tag Team Titles.

The incredible achievement was sadly overshadowed by the sad demise of O'Reilly's mother. We at Sportskeeda take this opportunity to convey our condolences to O'Reilly and his family. May God grant them the fortitude to deal with the loss.
