Bray Wyatt made his return to WWE during Extreme Rules in 2022, much to the delight of fans. Unfortunately, Wyatt passed away last year and many continue to mourn his loss. Wyatt’s sister Mika Rotunda has now written an emotional letter 14 months after his untimely demise.

Mika Rotunda took to her Instagram to share a touching story about a moment with Bray’s daughter, Kendyl. She mentioned that she cried in front of Kendyl, who asked why she was upset. Mika wanted to tell her niece that her dad was proud of her but found it hard to say the words. Still, she felt Kendyl understood what she meant.

Mika described Bray Wyatt as an amazing person who brought joy and energy to her life. She talked about how hard it has been to cope with his loss and mentioned the stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Even after 14 months, she misses his laughter and presence.

Rotunda believes that time doesn’t always heal all wounds; sometimes, it can make them worse if not dealt with properly. Although she hasn’t fully accepted Bray’s passing, she has become more aware of the little things she used to take for granted. Healing is important to her, and she shared a sweet moment when Kendyl recited the ride of Paul Revere, which made her cry. Even though she was sad, she felt Kendyl understood her feelings about her dad.

Mika often feels Bray’s presence and describes his energy as a special kind of light. She finds comfort in seeing his spirit in his children and in nature. She misses him a lot and wishes they could share more moments together as a family. She ended her message by saying she would heal for Bray because she knows he would want that for her, and she expressed her love for him.

“What a human being I had the privilege of adoring for my first 30 years. And what an amazing person I get to honor for the rest of my life.

They say there are 5 phases of it. Grief that is. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Last month marked 14 months. Feels impossible that I haven’t heard his laugh or hugged his sweaty neck. Or had him burst through my front door, talking too loud. Bringing with him this contagious and instantaneous burst of energy to talk about any and everything.

Honestly I think the old expression, “time heals all wounds.” Is for the birds. Because time doesn’t heal all wounds.

In fact, time can sometimes worsen a wound. If it doesn’t heal correctly or isn’t treated properly. I won’t tell you I’ve processed Windham’s untimely passing, or even come within an iota of the realm of acceptance. But, I can tell you— I’ve been awoken to so many things that I once took for granted. And pray everyday never to do so again. Healing has been of precedence for me. Which comes in so many forms.

The other day, my niece Kendyl stood in my kitchen and recited the entire ride of Paul Revere to me. Before she could get to the last two stanzas, I started crying. In perfect eleven year old fashion, she started laughing at me. Then of course asked me why I was crying. I couldn’t get the words out to say, “your daddy is so amazed by you.” But, she got the message. I know she did.

I’m taken back so many times, when I feel Windham’s presence. When people pass, you always hear them talk about how they could light up a room. Or make anyone’s day brighter.

Well, for Windham— the best way I can describe his light was like Bioluminescence. I’m so grateful to find his energy in his children’s hearts and even my own. To feel him in the warmth of the sun or imagine his glow in the moonlight.

I miss him terribly and wish so much I could be sharing all these days with him and our babies. I’ll heal for you, because you’d also heal for me. I love you more, Windham!”

Bray Wyatt will always be remembered fondly by those who knew him, both in wrestling and outside of it. His legacy is strong, and many fans around the world continue to celebrate his memory with love and admiration.
