Bray Wyatt’s sudden demise came as a massive thud to all wrestling enthusiasts across the globe. Over 48 hours have passed since the news was broken by Triple H but the pain doesn’t seem to reduce. Amidst the tributes, fans forgot to look deeper into the reason for his cardiac arrest.
Windham Rotunda aka Bray Wyatt had been away from in-ring action for over half a year. As per reports, his health was not in a pink state which eventually became a reason for his demise. TMZ Sports recently obtained the law enforcement records that revealed a reason behind Bray becoming a victim of cardiac arrest.
As per TMZ, “a doctor-recommended heart defibrillator was not with him when they found his body.” Bray Wyatt had gone for a nap when his fiancee Jojo Offerman found something weird. She heard his alarms go off without stopping almost an hour later. When Jojo went to his room, “Windham was discovered in his bed, not breathing, and was turning blue,” reported TMZ.
Bray Wyatt’s breaths had stopped, which resulted in him turning blue. While Jojo’s mother tried giving CPR, Jojo called for an emergency. On taking him to the hospital, he was pronounced dead. During the investigation, the defibrillator was found in his car in the driveway. Had he kept the device with him, there are high chances that he would have been present among us.

There was a lot of positive progress towards a return and his recovery. Unfortunately today he suffered a heart attack and passed away.
This led to the weakening of the lower part of his heart. The past few weeks saw Bray Wyatt in probably one of the weakest states of health and was under medical treatment. It wasn’t long back that his heart issue compelled him to the hospital. Wyatt had met the doctors on the morning of the same day he left for his heavenly journey.
Bray Wyatt’s deteriorating health details were kept away from the eyes of the fans. In fact, the WWE Universe had been very hopeful for his return anytime soon. However, destiny had its other plans. Not only did the fans’ hope came crashing down, but Bray Wyatt’s too, who was busy planning his wedding with Jojo.
