Vince Russo recently detailed Bray Wyatt's difficulty with WWE

Vince Russo recently detailed WWE's main issue with Bray Wyatt. Speaking on an episode of Writing With Russo, he claimed that the former world champion was made to look like "just another wrestler".

Russo said:

"There was no one in that company who could write up to the level of Bray Wyatt and if you can't write up to his level you're gonna bring him down. So what does bring him down mean? Bringing him down means over time he becomes just another wrestler and that's what happened."

Russo further discussed Wyatt's run with WWE and was also critical of the company's booking of him. He added:

"When you've got a guy whose level is so high and is so talented as a writer, you've gotta be there every single week because if you're not you start seeing this. And then you just got another wrestler on your hands, at the end of the day by the time Wyatt was done with his run he was just another wrestler and that was not Bray Wyatt's fault."

Over the recent months, Wyatt, now going as Windham (his real-life name Windham Rotunda), has teased his return with a series of cryptic tweets. However, the former Universal Champion is yet to make his return.
