Ace Austin and Gia Miller recently suffered a tragedy when their home was completely destroyed by fire. The Impact Wrestling stars said they lost everything in the fire.

After a GoFundMe was established, the couple hoped to raise a modest $5,000 to help them get back on their feet. Instead, some big names in the wrestling world came to the rescue. At the time of this writing, over $24,000 has been raised.

There were some huge names on the donor list, and they were very generous. Cody Rhodes donated $500. Nicholas Massie, otherwise known as Nick Jackson of the Young Bucks, pitched in $500 of his own.

Impact EVP Scott D’Amore donated whopping $5,000 to help the couple recover. WCW alumni Chris Jericho, Gregory “Hurricane” Helms, and Diamond Dallas Page combined for $2,500. D-Lo Brown, Matt Cardona and many other famous names also appear on the donor list, in addition to strangers and fans alike.

The massive outpouring of generosity contains some names that nobody would expect. Wrestling media personalities, independent promoters and wrestlers, and even shock jock and former WCW commentator Mark Madden contributed to the cause.

Miller tweeted out the request for help on Monday. The pro wrestling community came together and smashed the couple’s fundraising goal. Donations continue to pour in from around the country.
