    The Story of Bray Wyatt
    Bray Wyatt is one of the most creative minds we've seen in wrestling in recent times and had all the makings of being the WWE's next phenom character. However, his story went differently than most would've thought. Today we cover his entire WWE run and how he was let down by the company's creative decisions time and time again.

    Hot Take: I found nothing wrong with the pitch black match earlier this year at the rumble, sure it might’ve failed to live up to the hype but from my perspective bray didn’t really lose anything there, and neither did LA knight despite his loss. I mean after the RR, LA knight came out of his bray feud even more insanely popular than ever and rightfully so. But I’m not giving up on Wyatt whatsoever,

    The WWE never felt like they knew what to do with him. They wanted him to be a sinister heel but when you got him losing back to back WrestleManias and and other big matches in between it's hard to take him serious. Plus the heavy emphasis of all his matches need to be spooky kinda kills the vibe for me.

      Bray's characters just became increasingly convoluted as time went on. For the hardcore fans, those willing to dive into all the extracurricular stuff, it works... but for the average fan whom only watches the main show and ignores the surrounding culture, all the deeper narrative aspects just don't hold water.
      I'd argue that the WWE failed the Cult Leader Bray Wyatt aspect because they kept him going against the top guys and had him lose the major matches that he really needed to win. Of course, I think the entire thing would have been better to actually have him be a cult leader and entrap other people, much like he did Daniel Bryan. He should have been a corrupting influence, but they decided to try that shit on Cena, and everybody knew he wasn't ever going to turn heel. Cena should have been among the last guys to face the Cult Leader and the leadup going in being the fact that Cena was the only one that wouldn't turn against the wider WWE universe.
      His off-stage segments should have been about turning the management toward his side, allowing him to freely break rules in matches to get over on his opponents while abusing the fact that they couldn't do so. It would only be at his discretion that his opponent could finally get a win and, in doing so, they would become indebted to the family.

      I think you're speaking for yourself and other fans that like a more grounded to reality product. I understand and respect preferences, but the so called "reality era" has plenty of hokey stuff.
      Cruiserweights beating HW's on a consistent basis and the acrobatic styles are fake looking as it gets. Kayfabe being dead doesn't add to the believability.
      So I honestly don't mind the supernatural stuff as long as the execution is good. Bray is so good he can make you suspend disbelief. What he does is more convincing than hearing someone like Lashley cut a promo.
      Here's the thing, regardless of what the IWC thinks Wyatt has been the #2 guy in the company since 2019. At one point his popularity and merch trumped Reign's.
      The only thing that has kept him back is creative and booking decisions from Vince and HHH.

    Alright, I wanted to talk about this for a long time now. Everytime a wrestler or their storylines succeed, people seem to always only give credit to the performers, no one EVER says ''Wow, Roman and the bloodline have been fantastic, the writters and production have done a great job'' No, people only praise the talent involved. BUT, when something majorly fails, people put all the blame on the staff, writters and production. Wyatt has had a lot of success with the cult leader gimmick and the cinematic match he had against Cena was superb, however, other projects that invovled Wyatt, like the House of horrors, the swamp fight against Braun, and everything regarding Uncle Howdy were, at the very least, pretty mediocre. But in those cases, most people blame it on WWE, saying it's their fault those pieces of production failed. When we look at what has succeded and what has failed with Wyatt, it's almost a 50/50, when it succeeds, it's all because of his brilliant mind, but when it fails, it's WWE's fault, or so fans seem to claim.
    This is not me saying Wyatt doesn't have a great mind for wrestling, but it is clear as water that for every good idea he has, there's one or two very bad ones in between.

    • @coolioso808
      @coolioso808 Рік тому +6

      Who books the finishes in WWE? The wrestler themselves or the production team and writers? Well, we all know it is Vince and probably Triple H close second who get the final say. And Vince has said it himself, give him the blame for bad storylines and finishes and then the credit for good storylines and finishes. The talent do their job in the ring and Wyatt has done very well. He has a compelling character. That's what you want to do as a wrestler, compel the fans to want to watch more and keep watching. When Wyatt was doing the Firefly Fun House and Fiend character I was interested. I didn't care about much else but those segments and that storyline I wanted to see more. It was super disappointing to see The Fiend lose by referee stoppage in his first big match on PPV. Imagine going to a Friday the 13th or Halloween film and the FIRST big encounter Freddy or Michael Myers has with another human they shoot him up, hit him with a big hammer and he's done! End of show! You would be livid, total waste of a character and story arc.
      Plus, I don't know where you are looking, but I see plenty of comments under Bloodline videos where people recognize and praise the creative team on this storyline. They do praise the talent for their roles, because they see it in the ring and that's the talent's job. But many fans understand the greater story, the booking and the finishes are ultimately creative team choices and they appreciate that. Bloodline storyline is now culminating to Jey Uso getting a Undisputed Title Match against Roman Reigns after Usos beat Roman. Would this storyline have been nearly as interesting if Usos lost to Roman and Solo at Money in the Bank? NO. Hell no. Would have sucked the momentum right out from the Usos. This is what has happened to Bray a bunch of times.
      All this to say that give credit where credit is due and blame where responsibility lies. If Bray's image is hurt by booking decisions where he loses momentum that is the creative team's fault. If Bray's image is hurt by an underwhelming match, that's on Bray. Creative team have given Bray some compelling storylines and satisfying wins to gain momentum, but at the same time, they've cut the legs out as well. I don't think anybody at WWE Creative would suggest they don't drop the ball on some stories or make mistakes.

Bray is like myself personally I don’t know if scattered brain would be the best way to describe him, but he has so many ideas which is amazing, but can’t stick to one in build off of that. I can’t even tell if he’s a face or heel sometimes. personally, he is one of my favorites of all time because of his versatile/promo. I’m a strong believer in if you’re a heel be evil and don’t be intriguing with your words too much be ruthless. But if you’re a face just be courageous and less supernatural.

    Sometimes Bray Wyatt character is too complex and when that happen there's some things he can't convert to be realistic enough for audience in the ring and that's hurt him. His new character also got hurt because he's on smackdown and smackdown firstly is very thin in singles competition that's why he had to feud with LA Knight and secondly 2 hours of smackdown wasn't enough for cryptic character like Bray had. I hope he move to Raw upon his return or if he stays on Smackdown he should makes adjustment to his current character to be more simple rather than complex slow burn like before.

      @richborn6700 That's usually because older wrestlers have more drawing power.. Top guys of the past like Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, Steve Austin, Undertaker, Ultimate Warrior, ect, were bigger draws than anyone on the current roster by leaps and bounds.. So jobbing them out to a bunch on nobodies doesn't automatically make the midcarder they lost to a big draw, it just hurts the credibility of the big draw you already had. It certainly isn't based on in ring wrestling ability like this dude seems to think. Otherwise WWE would have fired John Cena and hired Amazing Red to put the WWE Title on 16 times... I wonder why they didn't do that. 🤔

If you really paid attention all of his "good ideas" are just copying TNA storylines and putting a little twist to it. Like the Compound match was a knock off to the Hardy's final deletion match.

    Bray works well when he is not over exposed. If he had a similar schedule to Roman where he competes mostly on PLE/PVP, and actually won consistently in brutal fashion, he would have stayed completely over and actually feared by the WWE universe/the roster.
    The Fiend was amazing and synonymous with Kane on his debut. A monster to be feared. They ruined it at the HIAC. And even till now they haven’t used him properly. He shouldn’t have won the title, he should be a boogeyman for the roster.

    Since his return it was just far too much setup and basically no pay off. There was 4 months in-between him coming back and his first match and we knew nothing more than we did by that point from when he did that first promo.
    Before anyone says anything about slow burn stories, you still need to give people a reason to care which he didn't. Why would I care what Uncle Howdy is doing when I don't know who or what his goal is to begin with and that would have been fine for maybe 2 months but 4-6? With no explanations for anything? This is just failure of basic storytelling, you can't just expect people to keep coming back when you're not giving them anything to latch onto.

    It didn't fill the void much but the innovative wrestling structure profounding with homages to enjoyable Niche Slasher style classic chraacters are Denoted.
    And that is one of the reason people are considering him to be legend of it's own as a character , The man itself was Great human being but the Character he played left a mark on people's heart and Staple in Wrestling Industry.
    Honestly I will Remember him as "Master of the craft as genre Subtext in Wrestling Industry" as well as a great performer for Interactive plots and performances (When given control in big PPVs).
