Last night’s SmackDown was a tribute to both Wyatt and Terry Funk. Though Strowman underwent neck fusion surgery in June, he appeared for Wyatt’s tribute. Strowman’s former Wyatt Family stablemate Erick Rowan was also brought in to celebrate Wyatt. Strowman and Rowan stood alongside each other for the 10-bell salute and moment of silence.
Wyatt (Windham Rotunda) passed away at 36 years old on August 24. His death was caused by a heart attack. Wyatt had a heart issue that was exacerbated by having COVID-19 earlier this year, but his health had recently been improving and he was getting closer to returning to the ring.
