IMPACT Wrestling stars Ace Austin and Gia Miller announced today that their home was destroyed in a fire, with both managing to escape despite nearly being trapped inside.

Gia noted that herself and Ace were forced to run through the flames and that their cat managed to survive, despite initially being trapped inside the home, with a GoFundMe page set up to assist them during this difficult time, with anyone looking to donate available to do so at this link.

A post from Gia on the GoFundMe page reads, “At approximately 9:30 am on the morning of October 18, I (Georgia Lee, or some of you know me as Gia) was awoken by the distinct smell of smoke and a terrifying realization: our second-story apartment was on fire. Not only that, the fire had originated on the front porch, nearly trapping us inside. We went running through the flames, where we were met with a community of people rushing to our sides to get us to safety. Mere seconds from being trapped, Austin (Ace) and I escaped our home that was now engulfed in flames and smoke. All of our belongings, including our sweet cat Selina that had hidden out of fear, were trapped inside. By some miracle, our baby girl was found alive and well buried under our ceiling and roof that had collapsed on top of her, shielding her from the flames and smoke. We are physically okay. Our little family is reunited. As for our home, it is gone. Something we worked so hard to build over the last year and a half, gone in minutes. We do not know what was able to be saved if anything. Now, we have to rebuild. Like a phoenix, from these ashes we will rise. Any help, even the smallest amount, is appreciated.”
