WWE Wrestler, Bray Wyatt Dies At 36

World Wrestling Entertainment  (WWE) superstar Bray Wyatt, whose real name was Windham Rotunda, is dead, according to the company.

“WWE is saddened to learn that Windham Rotunda, also known as Bray Wyatt, passed away on Thursday, Aug. 24, at age 36,” the company said in a statement.

“Known for his captivating performances and incredible in-ring presence, Wyatt was a defining Superstar of his generation and accomplished many feats in WWE, including becoming WWE Champion in 2017,” the statement continued.
