Bray Wyatt passed away at the age of 36, shocking fans and the pro wrestling world alike as they slowly come to terms with such a tragic loss. Wyatt will be remembered for being an incredible human being and more.

While speaking on the ARN podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Arn Anderson talked about Bray Wyatt’s character and what ended up inspiring Wyatt to come up with the character. Anderson ended up calling Wyatt’s character a 300-pound Charles Manson.

That’s a 300-pound Charles Manson. That’s what I get from that character. [Wyatt was a] great athlete underneath that 300 pounds. He could move around that ring. And the character — he had it so down. Again, that’s another one of those guys — very Terry Funk-ish.”
