Bray Wyatt passed away at the age of 36-years-old on August 24th after he suffered a heart attack. His passing is still devastating, and the entire world is left in mourning. Sadly, some people are trying to cash in by spreading lies about his final hours.
As Ringside News reported when it happened in December, 2022, Barry Windham suffered a massive heart attack while traveling through the Atlanta airport. Windham was transported to an ICU, after he technically died on that floor for a moment.
Bray Wyatt dropped a heartfelt video at that time, one where he opened up in a big way. He spoke about how he always viewed his family members as invincible when he grew up, They were larger than life, and Wyatt was very introspective in that address.
“Normally, I keep a lot of my outside life separate from anything I do on here or in the ring. I just wanted to let everyone know I’m incredibly thankful for the support and the love I’ve received since I’ve been back and throughout my career. Wrestling has been a part of my life always. When I was a kid, I looked at my dad and my uncles, and my grandfather, who were all professional wrestlers. I looked at them like they were Greek gods, like they couldn’t feel pain, they were immortal, and they’d always be just like that. As we get older and I become a man myself, you start to understand that’s just not the case. Nothing is forever.”
A YouTube account called Digital Media is now sharing that video of Bray Wyatt. We will not be posting the video, because they don’t deserve the boost that embedding a video would bring them. You can watch the actual video that Bray Wyatt posted below.
A number of fans are also very upset about that YouTube video from Digital Media, because the channel incorrectly labeled it as: “WWE Bray Wyatt Said This 5 Hours Before Death | Warning Signs Were There.”
Some fans in the comment are angry about this video, and for good reason. They are calling for the video to be taken down. One fan commented to say, “Don’t put this fake stuff out there please pay respect to Bray.”
Another fan sent out a warning that the YouTube account in question cannot be trusted, as they said, “This video is from December 2022. Bray literally talks about Barry Windham’s heart attack being ‘This week.’ Barry last heart attack was December 2nd, 2022. The uploaded is claiming the video was ‘5 hours before Bray’s death’ as clickbait. Do not trust this person.”
Sadly, some fans do not realize that the video is old. They commented to send their own tributes for the former WWE Champion. There are a lot of views on this video already, as it continues spreading this misinformation and generating clicks for that YouTube video.
We will keep our eye on this story, and everything else going on in the pro wrestling world. The world lost a great man when Bray Wyatt passed away, and sadly, there is already misinformation going around about him.
