The 2021 Royal Rumble could feature a lot of surprises, including the return of Bray Wyatt's alter-ego.

'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt has been off TV since WWE TLC, where he was set on fire by 'The Viper' Randy Orton. Even though it seems like it's the end for the former Universal Champion, it might actually just be a new beginning for him. The two Superstars have been feuding for a while now, so there's a chance that their feud could continue until WrestleMania 37.

If the match does happen at WrestleMania, then The Fiend could also get revenge on Randy Orton for what transpired at WrestleMania 33. At last year's WrestleMania, The Fiend got his retribution from John Cena for Bray Wyatt's loss to the Leader of the Cenation at WrestleMania XXX.

This year, The Fiend could seek revenge on Randy Orton for what transpired at WrestleMania 33, which saw Wyatt losing his WWE Championship to The Viper. According to WrestleVotes, WWE is planning something scary for the Royal Rumble match.

Sorry for the lack of details here but still noteworthy IMO; had a brief conversation earlier with a source regarding the Men’s Royal Rumble match. They said quote: “There’s a finish that scares the death out of me. And it’s legitimately getting heavy consideration” yikes.

What else could be scarier than a wrestler presumed dead making a return at the Royal Rumble and costing Randy Orton an opportunity for a world title match at The Show of Shows? This will add more stakes to Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton's rivalry and make their future match seem like a huge deal.
