Long after his passing, WWE star Bray Wyatt’s prolific handprint remains to be felt within the industry today. A lot in order that even former higher-ups proceed crediting Wyatt for his previous accolades. Former Executive Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis described what it was prefer to personally work with the previous WWE Champion.<\/p>\n

“Well, Bray Wyatt was a pleasure all the time to work with,” Laurinaitis said during his live autograph session on\u00a0“Signed By Superstars.”<\/a> “I mean, Bray was a pure skilled. Loved wrestling, loved the business, and loved his gimmick…Bray Wyatt was a heck of a talent, and he’s very enjoyable to work with.”<\/p>\n

The previous on-screen authority figure also commended Wyatt for his creativity, including his insight on morphing all of his characters into one unsettling journey through his “Firefly Fun House” segments, which acted as an homage to “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood.” On August 24, 2023, the third generation star passed away. He was 36-years-old.<\/p>\n

Laurinaitis’ tenure with WWE quietly resulted in August 2022 after an internal investigation was made by the WWE Board of Directors into allegations of misconduct, including his involvement within the hush-money scandal that involved former CEO and Chairman Vince McMahon.\u00a0 Janel Grant, the plaintiff who filed the foremost lawsuit on McMahon, also included Laurinaitis. After reaching a settlement, Laurinaitis was dismissed from the case in May 2025. Now, a joint motion has been filed to maneuver the case to personal\u00a0arbitration.<\/p>\n
