When we look back at the career of Bray Wyatt; I’d hope performers embrace taking more risks creatively. Go right when everyone else went left.
Will it always work? No. But with skill and soul, when it does, will it make you unforgettable?

I can’t quite believe the news about Bray Wyatt. What do you even say.
The man was one-of-a-kind creative mastermind who approached wrestling in such a cool way. Genuinely shellshocked.
Thoughts with his friends and family as always.
We all need to be kinder to each other.

The world witnessed a man with bountiful creative brilliance. I saw a kind man who always had time to spread the gift of laughter.
I’ll miss calling you “Husky Rusky” and I’ll miss hearing the greeting of “Sax the Max.” Our industry was better because we had you in it #BrayWyatt pic.twitter.com/0DmjsI3BEY— Byron Saxton (@ByronSaxton) August 25, 2023

Tragic news. Windham was an exceptional talent in the ring. His creation, Bray Wyatt, is an iconic character. Backstage, Windham was a lot of fun to be around, one of those people who never had a bad day. What a loss, both professionally and personally. https://t.co/zSwG6OWiQI

I don’t even know how to process this. Bray Wyatt was one of the most creative and interesting wrestlers of all time. The Fiend was a major reason why I got back into wrestling in 2019. I can’t believe this. The world’s been robbed. Rest in peace, Windham. https://t.co/zdQNdkd4Ph

Bray Wyatt pointing to sheamus with his hand looking like a gun and Roman spearing him acting like a bullet is still one of the coolest moments ever in the history of wwe #RipLegend pic.twitter.com/4MqFcwhiFZ

The Bray Wyatt news is absolutely gutting. Whenever a non-wrestling fan friend has watched modern WWE with me, they’ve always remembered him specifically. A real creative in a time when we often bemoan a lack of “characters”, and heartbreakingly young too. RIP Windham Rotunda

My heart breaks for Windham and his family. You were always so nice to us, Windham. Ever since we were kids, going trick or treating together, following our dad’s footsteps. You were always relatable, kind and humble. We will always be so grateful for your presence in our lives. https://t.co/SCrCDT7xbd
