WWE superstar Becky Lynch's father passed away as she penned a emotional tribute to her dad in a Instagram post. "My god was he a great Dad," Lynch wrote in a lengthy Instagram caption Thursday, sharing several photos with him over the years. "My brother and I never had a seconds doubt that he loved us unconditionally. He was proud of us no matter what. Not for what we did, but for who we were. The rest was just details for my pops. "Lynch went on to say that her dad was someone she could go to for help with "the most trivial of problems or concerns" because "he would never judge," and described him as one of her biggest supporters. "In my weird teenage years, he never batted an eyelid. 'She's just being herself' - he'd say, and would let me get back to my strange clothes and dog collar chokers," she continued, adding that when she told him she wanted to be a wrestler, "he never doubted me for a second even though I did."

Lynch expressed regret that she was unable to be at her dad's side when he died and that he was never able to meet his granddaughter Roux, whom she and fiancé Seth Rollins welcomed in December." He would have gotten a great kick out of her and she would have adored him," Lynch continued. " 'She's a great laugh'- as he would say. Though I know he was so happy to have lived to know she's alive. I hope I can approach parenting the same way my Dad did with us. "Several celebrities in the wrestling community offered their condolences to Lynch in the comments section of the post. Taking to the comments to offer their condolences were Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock, Nikki Bella and Brie Bella aka The Bella Twins and The Miz amongst many others. "Sending all our love and light. So sorry about this. What a life he lived," The Rock commented while Nikki wrote, "Lots of love light magic and prayers to you and your family. I'm so incredibly sorry Becky. So so sorry. "While Brie commented, "I'm so sorry for your loss!!! Your Dad seemed like an amazing man. Prayers for you and your family," The Miz wrote, "Love the relationship you have with your dad. I hope to do the same for my daughters. I'm so sorry for your loss."
