“Here, here’s a young man who is so talented, so creative and you know, that’s the TV side of it,” Tommy added. “But for me, I knew his grandfather, I know his father, I was there when him and his brother first got signed. I know his uncle, I was just talking to his uncle about him and…I remember him just being an ECW fan or meeting him when he was little. And… there’s no words, there is no feeling, there’s no… you start questioning like why does something like this happen? It’s devastating and I have no answers I have only like thoughts — and great thoughts and prayers for strength for his family and friends.”

Wyatt, a father to four children, passed away on Thursday at 36. The somber announcement came through a social media post by Paul “Triple H” Levesque, WWE’s chief content officer.

“This is a hard one and, and because of his age and also because I felt like we were cheated out of his greatness,” Tommy said.

Under his birth name Windham Rotunda, Wyatt had taken a hiatus from WWE over recent months due to undisclosed health concerns. His association with WWE dates back to 2009, with a notable exception during 2021 and 2022 when he was unexpectedly let go. Making a triumphant return to WWE in September of last year, Rotunda’s enigmatic narrative, complete with mysterious video clips, played a pivotal role in enhancing television viewership.
