Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Reactions after journalist confirms Bray Wyatt was triple vaxxed before he died suddenly.
Earlier this year, John Cena revealed the most cherished feud of his entire 20+ year illustrious career was the Firefly Funhouse match with Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 36.
That’s how special Bray was. Bray Wyatt is reportedly nearing a return to WWE seven months since his last appearance after overcoming a life-threatening illness away from the sport.
Wyatt, a three-time WWE world champion, has not competed since his win over LA Knight in a Mountain Dew Pitch Black Match at the Royal Rumble back in January.
One thing Wyatt hasn’t done much of in this WWE run is wrestle. The Pitch Black match, which was widely panned for being overbooked, has been his only televised match in this run, though Wyatt did work some house show dates against Jinder Mahal and Knight.
Wyatt was planned for a WrestleMania 39 bout against Bobby Lashley, but it was shelved when he got sick (and Lashley notably didn’t receive a replacement opponent). There are undoubtedly many who would love to see him back in action, but even more who are glad his health is getting better after what sounds like a legitimate scare.
And according to Fightful Select, via Wrestling Inc, the 36-year-old has been battling a long-term illness which has kept him out of the ring for the past seven months.
According to the report, the Florida-born star’s outlook has improved significantly, meaning the company is already mapping out creative plans for the former WWE champion.
September has been pinpointed as a potential return date, however nothing is set in stone as of yet.
Wyatt, known as The Fiend, was set to ignite a feud with Bobby Lashley before going on his hiatus in early 2023.
His mysterious Uncle Howdy, as well as Eric Young and Alexa Bliss were in line to be involved in the feud, but Young has since left the company and Bliss is currently out on maternity leave
For the best part of a decade Wyatt has proven one of WWE’s most polarizing figures.
His journey with the company has been somewhat of a rollercoaster, too, after he was released in 2021 as part of a cost-cutting move.
He eventually returned last October at Extreme Rules with a slightly-altered gimmick combining his previous ‘Fiend’ and ‘Eater of Word’ characters.
WWE issued a lengthy statement on Wyatt’s passing, which you can see below. They also tweeted to send condolences to Wyatt’s family, friends and fans, writing, “WWE is saddened to learn that Windham Rotunda, also known as Bray Wyatt, passed away on Thursday, Aug. 24, at age 36. WWE extends its condolences to Rotunda’s family, friends and fans.”
AEW also paid tribute to Wyatt on social media and their official website.
“AEW joins the entire wrestling world in mourning the loss of Windham Rotunda, aka Bray Wyatt. A third-generation wrestler, Windham proudly carried on his family’s legacy by forging his own incredible path to superstardom. Windham’s unique style and persona showcased his passion for the industry and desire for innovation. AEW sends its deepest condolences to Windham’s family, friends and fans. We are forever grateful for all his incredible contributions to the industry,” they wrote.
Impact Wrestling offered condolences to Wyatt’s family and noted that they would not be live tweeting during tonight’s Impact broadcast out of respect.
Sean Ross wrote: “I was given permission to reveal that earlier this year Windham Rotunda (Bray Wyatt) got COVID that exacerbated a heart issues.
There was a lot of positive progress towards a return and his recovery. Unfortunately today he suffered a heart attack and passed away.”
