The wrestling world is sending well-wishes to a legend.
Mike Rotunda67, who rose to fame in the ‘80s by winning titles in World Wrestling Federation (now the WWE) and World Championship Wrestling, has been placed in hospice care, according to his brother-in-law and former wrestling partner Barry Windham.
“It’s kinda tough right now,” Barry told wrestling journalist Bill Apter in an Oct. 25 interview. “Mike is in hospice right now.”
Barry—who is a two-time World Tag Team Champion with Mike—also referenced the sudden passing of Mike’s son Windham Rotundaknown professionally as Bray Wyattwho died from a heart attack in 2023 at the age of 36.
He added, “I love that family but it’s just so tragic.”
In addition to Barry’s call for prayers supporting Mike, fellow WWE alum Leilani Kai shared her condolences after the WWE Hall of Famer’s health update.
“It breaks my heart to share that my friend Mike Rotunda has been placed under hospice care,” she wrote in an Oct. 28 post to X (formerly Twitter) alongside a picture of the pair hugging. “This photo was from earlier this year — a moment I’ll treasure.”
