Bray Wyatt is one good example of how a good character can become stale due to some lackluster booking. The cult leader character had great potential to be the next face of fear in the WWE when he debuted on the main roster, gaining a huge victory over Kane in his SummerSlam 2013 Ring of Fire match. Somehow though, the Eater of Worlds fell down the card and found himself floundering in the tag team division before WWE decided to repackage him.

Wyatt re-debuted with a new character having two personas, one as an eerie host of the Firefly FunHouse, and the other as the terrifying Fiend. The former World Champion had his comeback match against Finn Balor at this year's SummerSlam, and it won't be an overstatement if we say that his entrance was the highlight of the entire show. After witnessing Wyatt's performance at SummerSlam, it's safe to say that WWE has struck gold with the character.

Whether Wyatt's momentum will stay remains to be seen, but with reports of his merch selling out, things are looking good for the Fiend.
