WWE wrestling star Bray Wyatt died unexpectedly on Thursday, sending shockwaves across the wrestling world.
Paul “Triple H” Levesque, the head of creative for the WWE, announced the tragic news on X (formerly Twitter):
“Just received a call from WWE Hall of Famer Mike Rotunda, who informed us of the tragic news that our WWE family member for life, Windham Rotunda – also known as Bray Wyatt – unexpectedly passed earlier today. Our thoughts are with his family, and we ask that everyone respect their privacy at this time.”
Wyatt held the WWE championship once and the promotion’s Universal championship twice.
The WWE wrestling star was also part of two tag-team championship teams.
The cause of death is still unknown.
According to The New York Post, Wyatt had been battling an unnamed “life-threatening illness” earlier his year but was set to return to WWE.
Fans and wrestlers expressed sadness and shock over Wyatt’s passing.
The WE is in the process of setting up its website in order for money raised from Wyatt’s merchandise to go directly to his family, according to Wrestling Ops.
Well, that sucks. He was one of my sons’ favorites, which made him one of my favorites. Dang...
His Bray Wyatt gimmick several years ago brought the WWE back to life for a while. Sadly, it’s pretty clear it was the vaxx due to comments about the illness being heart-related.
Fat and heavy steroid abuse isn’t the pathway to a long life.
Go look at the lifespan of an elite power lifter.
Great name. Not safe or effective but Big Pharma made a fortune.
“Fat and heavy steroid abuse isn’t the pathway to a long life.”
...this I would agree with. Although the vax is still a possibility.
No mention of there being an elephant in the room at the time of his passing.
Heart attack reportedly

This is why i avoid strenuous activities and getting government mandated shots.
Meanwhile, from a couole of days ago....
Sweeney’s still with us, but no explanation for the “medical event”.
Ok. Bill Kazmaier is 70 years old.
For every outlier you name I’ll name 10 who died young.
You really want to die on the hill that fat steroids abusers live long lives?
“Fat and heavy steroid abuse isn’t the pathway to a long life.”...this I would agree with. Although the vax is still a possibility.
It's not like wrestlers did of heart issues prior to the vax, right?
Eddie Guerrero; age 38 (2005)No, there's something about a pro wrestling lifestyle that can prevent a pathway to a long life. Not everything is about the vax, Free Republic.The British Bulldog; age 39 (2002)
Umaga, age 36 (2009)
Big Boss Man, age 41 (2004)
Brian Pullman, age 35 (1997)
Viscera, age 43 (2014)
Could just as likely be drug abuse.
Seems that muscle sport athletes have a particular predisposition to dying from spike protein effects …sometimes a year or more into their modified RNA state,
Ted Arcidi is 65 years old, Dave Waddington is 70 years old -- now you need to name 30 to those 3.
Yes, steroids are not healthy, and people do die at young ages. But to make the 10 to 1 claim, I think that's over-exaggerated.
