The Man Honors the Late Wrestling Icon with a Heartfelt Gesture
The untimely passing of Bray Wyatt has left the pro wrestling world in deep mourning. On August 28, 2023, WWE Raw was no exception, with several tributes pouring in for the late superstar. The evening’s most poignant moment came at the end, courtesy of Becky Lynch.
After main-eventing Raw against Zoey Stark in a falls count anywhere match, which concluded with Lynch sending Stark through a table for the win, Becky had a special tribute in store. She removed the Bray Wyatt band from her arm, holding it aloft for all to see. Overwhelmed with emotion, Lynch broke down in tears as Raw went off the air, marking a touching end to the show.
Throughout the evening, many WWE superstars sported armbands bearing Bray Wyatt’s name. Seth Rollins, for instance, wore a “Windham” armband, reminiscent of Mercedes Mone’s tribute at AEW All In London. Bray Wyatt’s legacy as one of the most creative minds in wrestling is undeniable, and his absence will be deeply felt across the wrestling community.
