There have been countless wrestlers who have included spooky, undead, or horror imagery into their personas, but no one has ever done it quite like Windham "Bray Wyatt" Rotunda, who tragically passed away at the age of 36. It's impossible to overstate the brilliance Rotunda brought to the ring as Wyatt, elevating the art of wrestling to that of horror cinema. His character work was unmatched and he took risks that often felt impossible in a company known for its micromanaging and supervillain leadership. He shot for the moon and even if the gimmick didn't land right away, he never gave up on figuring out how to make it work. Few of his peers were that brave, ever. Over the course of his career in WWE, Bray Wyatt truly became the new face of fear, and incorporated horror into the world of wrestling in a way that no one before him ever could.

There was no obvious, unanimous choice for 2014's WWE Wrestler of the Year. Daniel Bryan was unable to follow through on the tremendous momentum he carried into – and out of – WrestleMania 30, thanks to a succession of nagging injuries. Cm Punk bowed out of the business altogether. Babyface heir-apparent Roman Reigns hit the shelf with a hernia, although he was still months from maturing into the marquee guy.
Fellow former Shield brothers Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins both benefitted from massive pushes, but neither has found a feud that fully exploits their magnetism and talent.
