Bray Wyatt Dead at 36: WWE Superstar’s Death Shocks and Saddens Fellow Wrestlers
WWE Superstar Bray Wyatt died at the age of 36 on Thursday, shocking the entire professional wrestling world. According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, Wyatt died of a heart attack after a long struggle with COVID-19 symptoms. He has been off television for the last few months but was getting ready to make a comeback.
“WWE is saddened to learn that Windham Rotunda, also known as Bray Wyatt, passed away on Thursday, Aug. 24, at age 36,” WWE wrote in a statement. “Known for his captivating performances and incredible in-ring presence, Wyatt was a defining Superstar of his generation and accomplished many feats in WWE, including becoming WWE Champion in 2017.
“From his leadership of The Wyatt Family alongside Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, and Braun Strowman to his enthralling time as “The Fiend,” Wyatt embarked on an incredible career and saw several iconic rivalries with Superstars such as John Cena, Randy Orton and The Undertaker.”
Wyatt won the WWE Championship once and the Universal Championship twice. He also won the Raw Tag Team Championship with Matt Hardy and the SmackDown Tag Team Championship with Randy Orton and Luke Harper. Here’s a look at fellow wrestlers paying tribute to Wyatt.
