TLDR

I wish more people in WWE were “difficult to work with.”

What it's about

We take a deep dive into the late wrestler Windham Rotunda’s career and creative process, anchored by his brother Taylor reminiscing through an expansive Bray Wyatt costume collection.

The take

A tribute to Windham Rotunda’s life may be next to impossible without the WWE, where he spent over a decade dazzling audiences with his talents in pro wrestling. In this thoughtfully crafted documentary, we learn about the inspirations and thought processes behind the Wyatt Family and the eerie vignettes called the Firefly Funhouse. Members of Windham's family, as well as his closest peers, also share their memories of the man behind Bray Wyatt—a supportive, ever-present family guy and friend. It’s a touching celebration of Windham’s life, even though a thinly veiled company slant frames his obsessive creative process as being “difficult to work with,” which felt unnecessary. But that’s WWE for you and you take what you get.

What stands out

Taylor sounds near-identical to his brother, something the Bo Dallas character was successfully able to obscure all those years.
