#2 Bray Wyatt becomes WWE’s next PPV main-eventer
By the end of 2017, Bray Wyatt’s “Eater of Worlds” character had become very stale and it was obvious to everybody that it was time for him to undergo a transformation.
In 2018, the former Wyatt Family leader became a babyface for the first time in his main-roster career when he emerged from ‘The Lake of Reincarnation’ as a changed man who joined forces with his former rival, Matt Hardy, to win the Raw Tag Team titles.
Despite this intriguing change of direction, Wyatt felt like nothing more than a mid-carder – a far cry from his WWE Championship triumph in 2017 – and he took eight months off between August 2018 and April 2019 to reinvent himself again.
Now, as the entertaining host of ‘Firefly Fun House’ and the creepy in-ring performer known as “The Fiend”, Wyatt is the most talked-about Superstar in WWE, and the company has handled his new personalities well by treating him like a special attraction.
Moving forward, it looks as though Wyatt’s “Fiend” will challenge for the Universal Championship against either Seth Rollins or Braun Strowman at Hell In A Cell in October. If he wins that match, WWE will have no choice but to have him headline PPVs regularly by the end of the year.
