Windham Rotunda aka Bray Wyatt has passed away

[Unholy Diver]

Very young man with a young family, tragic news

 

[McGarnagle]

What the f*** man

Celebrity deaths never bother me and I haven't even watched wrestling regularly since about 2018 but reading this news just felt like a punch in the gut

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Wow the last 48-72 hours has really sucked first Terry Funk, now this.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I'm gonna be honest... I guess I shouldn't speculate but I think people should probably prepare for the possibility of something else. Guy had a lot of health issues, but a lot of mental issues too.

I'm going to be honest I'm thinking the same thing especially since he's my age.

36 isn't normal

 

[McGarnagle]

Terry Funk was a legend but he was 79 and wrestled a million hardcore texas deathmatches over the last 50+ years so his death wasn't exactly a shock to anyone.

Bray Wyatt was 36. Sting's still wrestling on AEW, he turned 36 in 1995. It's sad to think how much Bray could've given the sport over these years but also just how much life he could experience with his family and whatever.

 

[Boomstick]

I'm absolutely stunned. So sad. 36 is way too young.
RIP Windham and thank you. Condolences to his family and friends.
Devestating day.

I’m absolutely heartbroken.

 

[McRpro]

Shocking news. RIP Windham.

 

[TNT87]

I'm so incredibly sad. Only he and The Undertaker have given me chills each time they came out. When he returned at Extreme Rules I marked the f***ed out. All of the many past wrestlers who have passed away this one is definitely hitting me the hardest. I've enjoyed him since the very first time I ever saw him. Condolences to his family and friends.

As a huge Bray mark this one sucks, man. This one sucks so f***ing bad.

 

[ON3M4N]

Bray was ahead of his time. His creativity was insane and you never knew what he was going to do next. More importantly though he seemed like a genuinely good guy. Any behind the scene/fan interactions you saw he was a class act. Bray was the guy that got me to enjoy wrestling again after years of not watching.

R.I.P to one of the greatest wrestling mind to ever entertain us.

 

[mrmovies779]

Smackdown tomorrow should be a tribute show to Bray.he deserves it,his kind of creative mind comes along once a generation

 

[CDJ]

Not another industry out there that breaks your heart more

You just have to be shitting me. So unfair. From the moment the Wyatt family stepped foot in NXT they became one of the more compelling parts of wrestling in the 2010’s. A promo god.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I'm glad we got that promo on his return where he got to just be Windham for the crowd at least once.

f***ing hell

 

[McGarnagle]

He was legit too. Son of Mike Rotondo/IRS, maternal grandson of Blackjack Mulligan, nephew of Barry Windham. That's a hell of a pedigree. And he had a massively talented creative mind to boot.

Delete. Posted above me.

f***in covid man, wtf

 

[yahhockey]

Crazy. No idea what else to say. It's sad for him and his family. Too young.

edit...because I don't want to make another post just to say this...

f***ing covid man. A neighbour's father caught it in the spring and it spiraled into organ failure and death in July for an otherwise healthy 60 year old. As much as we may pretend it's not out there unfortunately it's still floating around and f***ing people up.

Yeah that’s basically what I thought it was going to be. The damage done through the Illness leading to a heart attack. You can improve and show signs of strong recovery and then there was too much damage and it gives out.
