WWE honored the heartbreaking losses of Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt earlier in the week during Friday night's special edition of SmackDown.
There's no sugar-coating this: it was heart-breaking and fair warning, you'll probably be in tears by the end. Losing Bray Wyatt at only 36 years old and seeing his young daughters that he's left behind is a gut punch that cannot be braced for.This was like watching a really great eulogy. It was touching, personal, funny, and full of honor and reverence.
, and no Attitude Era without Terry Funk making all of that possible. He is distinctly in the DNA of every one of those things or people I listed, and without his involvement and contributions to pro wrestling , they don't exist. Terry Funk is pro wrestling. Forever.Just as Cody Rhodes' speech earlier was perfect for what it was, this one from was another home run.
Yes, they both showed some new dimensions, with The Rock saying how much he loved Owen and Austin showing empathy toward another person, but that only enhanced their pull with the audience as they were letting them know that it was going to be all right. That the thing they loved wasn't destroyed forever with the tragic loss of one of its stars. LA Knight and Cody Rhodes accomplished something similar last night.
