Seth Rollins And Cody Rhodes Pay Tribute To Bray Wyatt
Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes led a tribute to the late Bray Wyatt during the 23rd March WWE Live Event in Springfield, Illinois.
Tragedy befell the wrestling world on 24th August 2023 when it was announced that Bray Wyatt had sadly passed away. He was just 36 years old.
The third-generation Superstar was a former WWE Champion and two-time Universal Champion and preparing for a return before his untimely passing due to a heart attack.
Since that sad day there have been many tributes to Wyatt by his former colleagues, the latest of which came after Rhodes and Rollins had battled Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso in an enthralling tag team bout at the Springfield Center.
The pair are set to team again in the main event of Night One of WrestleMania 40 when they take on the formidable duo of Roman Reigns and The Rock and they warmed up in style with victory over their Bloodline opponents in Illinois.
Following the bout, the pair paid tribute to their late friend with Rhodes and Rollins leading fans in a rendition of ‘He’s Got The Whole World In His Hands’, a tune often uttered by Wyatt. The moment was captured by ‘X’ user Eric Guthrie.

Bray Wyatt Not Slated For 2024 WWE Hall Of Fame Induction
‘The Eater Of Worlds’ has been a rumoured inductee for the 2024 WWE Hall Of Fame induction class since his passing and with father Mike Rotunda being honoured this year, many felt is was a shoe in that Wyatt would enter the hallowed halls.
A recent report by Dave Meltzer, however, revealed that there are currently no plans to induct the former WWE Champion this year.
