WWE Rocked by Death of Superstar Bray Wyatt at 36 in Tragic Shocker

The WWE uni­verse was sent reel­ing by the dev­as­tat­ing death of Bray Wyatt at just 36 years old, his pass­ing announced by a gut­ted Triple H on social media.

Wyatt, real name Wind­ham Rotun­da, came from a dynasty of grap­plers but found fame lead­ing cult fac­tion The Wyatt Fam­i­ly, win­ning titles includ­ing the WWE Championship.

The shock­ing news came as a thun­der­bolt, with no cause of death yet giv­en for the ath­lete in his prime. Wyatt recent­ly took time off but seemed poised for a come­back before this tragedy struck.

Fel­low wrestlers expressed utter dev­as­ta­tion, with Dwayne “The Rock” John­son describ­ing Wyat­t’s “tremen­dous respect and love” while still pro­cess­ing the emo­tion­al blow.

Ric Flair lament­ed “not tak­ing any sec­ond for grant­ed” after los­ing Wyatt and Ter­ry Funk in two short days. For­mer rival Alexa Bliss mourned Wind­ham as an “amaz­ing friend” with one of the most “cre­ative minds.”

Wyatt leaves behind a lega­cy as one of wrestling’s spook­i­est stars, weav­ing hor­ror ele­ments into his com­plex on-screen per­sona. But behind the frights he touched count­less lives with his big heart.

The entire wrestling world has been left reel­ing by Wyat­t’s shock demise. As fans join his WWE fam­i­ly in mourn­ing, they’ll nev­er for­get the mag­ic this true leg­end brought to every show.
