WWE merchandise releases have been adjusted following the passing of Bray Wyatt.

Bray Wyatt – the real-life Windham Rotunda – tragically passed away at the age of just 36 following a heart attack on August 24th. The wrestling world was united in grief for the star who had only returned to WWE in October 2022.

Wyatt competed in just one televised match after returning, that being his Pitch Black bout with LA Knight at the 2023 Royal Rumble and a planned bout with Bobby Lashley at WrestleMania 39 was pulled from the show. The former WWE Champion had not been seen on WWE television since February amid suggestions he was battling undisclosed health issues.
