Current AEW star Matt Hardy recently talked about the late Bray Wyatt's relationship with former CEO Vince McMahon.

Windham Rotunda has been a man of different personas during his stint with WWE. He started with Husky Harris, then in NXT, he was rebranded as Bray Wyatt, which became his main name for the remainder of his career. He then became known as The Eater of Worlds and The Fiend at certain times of his career. The star unfortunately passed away at the 36 on August 24.

During a recent episode of his Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, the AEW star paid tribute to Bray Wyatt. Hardy talked about how Wyatt and Vince McMahon had an almost father-and-son-like relationship.

“Him and Vince had a very interesting relationship, almost like a father-son relationship in some ways. I feel like that probably came to be because he had only known the WWE system, so Vince was the only boss he ever had. I feel like there’s times when Vince shows you all this love, but then if you do something he doesn’t necessarily like or he disagrees with, then he’s really tough on you like a father in many ways."

Hardy went on to state that a lot of wrestlers had the same kind of relationship with Vince McMahon.

"I feel like they, more than a lot of wrestlers who work under Vince, they had this weird, almost father-son relationship. If Vince was mad at him, he would be very sad and disappointed, like, oh my God, I didn’t make him happy. Then there were times where he would be totally upset with him." [H/T WrestlingNews.co]
