Bray Wyatt, whose real name was Windham Rotunda, died of a heart attack at age 36. His death occurred in his sleep at home on August 24, 2023. The heart attack was linked to complications from a prior COVID-19 infection, which had weakened the lower part of his heart. In the weeks before his death, he experienced heart issues that required hospitalization, and doctors had advised him to wear a specialized vest with an external heart defibrillator. However, at the time of his death, he was not wearing this vest, which was later found in his car. His fiancee found him during a nap when he was unresponsive, and despite CPR efforts, he was pronounced dead at the hospital.
