Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt feud
Less The Thing, more Friedberg and Seltzer.

In a move that surprised a lot of people, Bray Wyatt won the WWE Championship in February's Elimination Chamber. Randy Orton, the Royal Rumble winner, was slated for a title shot at WrestleMania. The problem was that Randy Orton was then a member of the Wyatt Family, and after initially refusing to fight his master, he turned, and the match was on.

We got one ridiculous promo and segment after another for months, followed by a ridiculous title match and an even more ridiculous conclusion to the feud in the infamous House of Horrors match at Payback, which was without question the worst of the year.

I can't begin to describe all the bad things in this feud in any detail because I'd be here forever.

Perhaps the worst thing of all was the treatment of Luke Harper, who was getting very over and had a highly praised match at Elimination Chamber with Orton. Yet, he had no involvement in the marquee program. It was a perfect microcosm for some of WWE's most destructive tendencies - squandering hot acts while allowing stupidity to flourish.
