The passing of Windham Rotunda, aka Bray Wyatt, is still hard to believe is real, as he had been on television just months before his passing.
Wyatt’s passing
The wrestling world lost Wyatt in late August when he suffered a heart attack. WWE put Wyatt on a Legends contract after his death, something typically done for former stars, where all of the proceeds go to Wyatt’s children.
He had been engaged to former WWE ring announcer JoJo Offerman, with them expecting to get married in late 2023. They have two children together, while Wyatt has two other children with his previous wife.
Something in the works
Pwinsider reports WWE has been working on a Wyatt project over the last week with Bo Dallas, his brother, being interviewed for it and was in Pittsburgh this week for the company to film material. Jason Baker of Callosum Studio, which is located in Pittsburgh, was the creator of Wyatt’s Fiend mask and likely the person to make the Uncle Howdy mask that Dallas used for the character.
As of this writing, there’s no word yet on whether this project will air on YouTube or will be saved for a documentary on Peacock or A&E.
