ESPN reported that Mr. Wyatt, whose real name was Windham Rotunda, had been out of the WWE for several months due to an undisclosed health issue. Except for just over a year in 2021 and 2022, when he was unexpectedly let go, he had been a member of WWE since 2009. Last September, Rotunda made a triumphant return to WWE with a suspenseful plotline that included cryptic vignettes, which helped increase television viewership.
