WWE Chief Content Officer and Head of Creative Triple H took to his Twitter (x) and revealed a heart-wrenching and tragic news that WWE Hall of Famer Mike Rotunda (I.R.S.) informed the company that Bray Wyatt (Windham Rotunda) unexpectedly passed away and that everyone’s thoughts are with his family and they ask that everyone respect their privacy at this time.

According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com, Wyatt recently suffered a heart attack, but he got COVID prior to that, which would exacerbated his heart issues and lead to his tragic passing. Bray Wyatt is survived by his fiancee and former WWE ring announcer Joseann Offerman (Jojo Offerman), their 4 kids, Wyatt’s brother Bo Dallas (Taylor Rotunda) and his sister Mika.

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.
