How The WWE Should (Have) Book(ed) Bray Wyatt
The Eater of Worlds. The New Face of Fear.
For the last month plus he has been calling out The Undertaker with excellent promo, after excellent promo, after excellent promo. He is alone on the ramp, in the ring, on video. And he's tremendous. How many guys could have a feud with themselves? It's uncanny. Sure there was some lightning and what not, but this has been all Bray Wyatt.
What Could They Have Done During The Lead Up To Mania ?
Unless Undertaker shocks the world and wrestles a non-Wrestlemania match after Sunday, where will Bray go next and who will be there waiting? I thought they could have had another wrestler (maybe Sami Zayn, another NXT dude, Bo Dallas, etc.) interfere with Wyatt. Now I don't want them to distract too much from his great mic work, but in the last one before Mania, why not have a someone set the stage for his next feud?
Will Bray Really Be The New Face Of Fear?
He better win on Sunday. What does a loss do? Look at what the Brock Lesnar win over Taker did for his career. It's gonna be tough to imagine the Undertaker now starting a Wrestlemania losing streak, but a win over Wyatt hurts the product going forward. Taker hasn't wrestled in a year and he got killed in that match. The Old Face of Fear doesn't need the win, he's already a mythical creature, give Wyatt the love he deserves with a solid win.
What Will Be Next For Bray Following Wrestlemania?
I'm sure all wrestlers enjoy being out there on their own. Clearly, Wyatt can hack it. He doesn't NEED to be in a stable, but he's so good as ones leader. In the near future struggling characters/wrestlers should seek out Wyatt to be a part of a new family. (Bo Dallas, his real life brother jumps to mind.) In fact, they don't know what they're doing with Erick Rowan, so have him come crawling back.
As initiation to join The New Wyatt Family, you have Bray fight these guys. Get some good matches between Wyatt-Rowan, Wyatt-Dallas, Wyatt-(insert NXT star here), and then BAM, you have a new, dangerous faction.
Who Is Sister Abigail?
Paige.
Just make it Paige, have her creep it up even more and add her to the stable. No brainer.
Hopefully the WWE reads this and you're welcome.
