Today’s August 28 episode of WWE Raw featured several more tributes to Bray Wyatt, who passed away just a few days ago.

Wyatt, real name Windham Rotunda, passed away aged 36 on Thursday, August 24.

The Friday, August 25 episode of SmackDown featured multiple tributes to Wyatt, and after the show, several WWE stars got matching tattoos of Wyatt’s logo.

Tonight’s Raw followed suit, with a graphic for both Wyatt and Terry Funk, who passed away a day before Wyatt, being shown at the start of the show.

There were also many of the WWE stars in action on tonight’s Raw who wore armbands with either “Bray” or “Windham” written on them.

The video package that was played on SmackDown was shown on Raw too, with his entrance music being played in the arena and a spotlight being shone on a rocking chair on the stage.

Seth Rollins, who emotionally paid tribute to Wyatt at a house show over the weekend, also went the extra mile on Raw tonight.

He started his in-ring promo by saying Yowie-Wowie, a catchphrase of Wyatt during The Fiend era, and there was another reference as well.

Rollins’ WWE World Heavyweight Championship belt has been modified to have a Rollins logo on one sideplate, and a Fiend mask logo on the other.

Becky Lynch also notably held up her Bray armband and cried as the show went off the air after she beat Zoey Stark in the falls count anywhere main event.

WWE has added the following note to the item descriptions for Wyatt merch on the WWE Shop website:

In the wake of Bray Wyatt’s death, WWE will donate all net proceeds to support JoJo Offerman and his children.

On Thursday, August 24, Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful reported:

I was given permission to reveal that earlier this year Windham Rotunda (Bray Wyatt) got COVID that exacerbated a heart issues.

There was a lot of positive progress towards a return and his recovery. Unfortunately today he suffered a heart attack and passed away.

Our thoughts and condolences continue to be with the family, friends, and everyone affected by the passing of Windham Rotunda.
