Weeks Before His Death, Bray Wyatt Might Have Found a Way to Immortalize Himself With ‘Last Wish’ on Social Media

The unexpected passing of Windham Rotunda, known to WWE fans as Bray Wyatt, is still making waves. The third-generation wrestler captivated audiences as the leader of The Wyatt Family, a bayou-dwelling cult. Even after passing, he found a way to immortalize his legacy with one last wish to his fans.

As the WWE universe pours their condolences, respects, and support to the family, some have noticed Wyatt’s last social media post. While he is not a huge fan of social media, this last message could cement his brilliant legacy.

Bray Wyatt’s message to play his character in WWE 2K23

The WWE 2K games revitalized the series after purchasing the rights from THQ. The launch of the first game in 2014, WWE 2K14, brought fresh air and fans to the annual release. With this year’s WWE 2K23 launch, fans were excited to play as their favorite wrestlers and recreate some historical moments.

Among the playable characters in the game, Bray Wyatt was missing. However, a DLC pack titled Revel with Wyatt Pack was set to add him and four others to the playable content. His sad and tragic passing at 36 has left fans in shock. But his last social media post promoting the game now, in retrospect, could’ve been his way of immortalizing his legacy. Now, many fans are looking at the post as his last wish for fans to play him in the game.

The Revel with Wyatt Pack, released on July 19, 2023, adds Bray Wyatt, Zeus, Valhalla, Joe Gacy, and Blair Davenport. Taking to social media, Wyatt’s Twitter account posted in-game footage and promotion for the DLC. This being his last post on July 20th, fans have seen this as his way of cementing his legacy through the game.

While fans were disappointed that he was not part of the main roster, adding his DLC pack gives him more importance in the game. While the post had no words, the video showcased Wyatt’s character in the game and some in-game footage. This excited fans a month before the tragic news of his passing hit. Till then, there were no new posts on his Twitter. 

Wyatt’s legacy in the WWE and 2K

While fans are disappointed that they can only play as Wyatt and not The Fiend, there are hopes that a new update shall fix this. With the tragic news of the passing of Wyatt, the WWE may pay homage to his last appearance in the new 2K23 game. They are hoping that there will be a follow-up update. The Fiend gimmick was one the fans loved and ranked over the initial Wyatt Family run. For now, fans will have to resort to mods to experience that.

The Fiend gimmick revitalized Wyatt in the company. With an old-school take on horror, it mirrored the mystery and spookiness of the early days of The Undertaker. Working closely with the story, Wyatt crafted a theme and a mask that will now and forever be associated with his incredible run in the WWE. Many fans believe The Fiend was one of the last great surreal storylines the WWE created in recent memory. It cemented Wyatt as an incredible industry performer and horror icon.
