Rotunda’s evolution as a character was unmatched creatively as he introduced a Mr. Rogers-esque persona alongside his “Fiend” alter ego. The creativity and talent both inside and outside of the ring made him a fan-favorite throughout his entire career.
Wyatt won fuve championships throughout his career, including the WWE championship and WWE universal championship , the company’s top two individual titles. Rotunda is survived by his partner, former WWE ring announcer JoJo Offerman, their two children together, his brother Bo Dallas , father Mike Rotunda, uncle Barry Windham, and two children from a previous marriage.
