I'm actually somewhat loving heartbroken. 36 is tragically, absurdly young. And he was so goddamn talented and so goddamn wasted for his entire professional career. Incredibly creative, incredibly charismatic, never got a chance to be the superstar he could've been because his company wouldn't get out of his way and he wouldn't get out of the company. Just absolutely awful on every level.

It's wild thinking that a multi-time world champion still felt like he hadn't reached his potential.

If I don't see multiple Bray tribute spots at All In I'll be severely disappointed, but the question also becomes who does them? I'd put some money on Mox doing one. Maybe Darby? Kenny seems like the kinda guy who probably would've loved how batshit Bray was, too.

It somehow hits harder when it's someone younger than you. This is the first time I've really experienced that with someone I knew and enjoyed their work. It's... Devastating.

Do we have any idea what the life threatening illness was?Kirios posted:It somehow hits harder when it's someone younger than you. This is the first time I've really experienced that with someone I knew and enjoyed their work. Dude, seriously. I just turned 42 and this one hits especially hard for me. It's the first time a wrestler younger than me that I knew and watched died (I wasn't familiar with Jay Briscoe's work before he passed.) It's really a punch in the gut. Life is fragile.

Just awful news. I don't watch WWE but I always kind of liked what I heard about Wyatt. His match with Cena was really unique and interesting. You could tell he wanted to push the limits of the kinds of stories one could tell in wrestling. RIP.

Punk will most definitely at least be wearing a BRAY armband, he is the guy who called him “an Abrams tank with a Ferrari engine” and was a big supporter of Bray when the gimmick was in NXT. Claudio will also probably work some Bray spots in, Jay will probably kiss the forehead of whoever he’s hitting with the Blade Runner during the GE/Cinnabang Gang match, and I can’t help but imagine Malakai and the HOB will work something into their costuming in honor of their fellow lore dork.

Oh my God I didn't even think of Jay. He might even dance with them first  If Jay did that it might legit make me cry because it'd also totally work in character for Jay since he's a smarmy, sleazy, grandstanding dickhead

BigBallChunkyTime posted:Mox maybe too. I didn’t include Mox because Foochs already mentioned him, but there’s like a 90% chance that Claudio and Mox will do a Wyatt Family double-team spot, didn’t Bray and Brodie do a spot where Bray did a running splash into the corner, toss the guy into Brodie, who’d do a spinning sidewalk slam? That seems perfect for them. Of course that whole match being a Stadium Stampede kinda throws things into disarray, who knows how much actual time in front of a live crowd they’ll have. Completely random “this would probably be far more frightening if he did it than when Bray did it”: Brodie King does the spider walk in tribute.
