If you want to make a WWE Superstar look like a really big deal, then one way to do so is by putting tremendous effort (and money) into the TV Production department.

After all, what we see on our television screens reflects our own opinions about the product in the end, and "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt's mystique largely depends upon theatrics whenever he decides to show up.

From the strobe lights to the theme music, as well as costumes, camera angles and paying attention to every little detail instills a heightened sense of fear that becomes addictive each and every time we get to see the character onscreen.

Not only does he look more menacing, but this also makes a great case for why "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt is a modern-day special attraction in the WWE.


#3: The Fiend has a lot in common with successful part-timers in the WWE

Speaking of theatrics, one of the things that Bray Wyatt has in common with The Undertaker is that both characters rely on a lot of theatrics to maintain their integrity and mystique in the company.

We have seen The Deadman making his iconic entrance every time he returns, yet, there is something addictive about seeing it over and over again - simply because fans love talking about a supernatural gimmick that still has deep roots embedded in kayfabe territory.

Similarly, how strange is it that a supernatural gimmick that debuted in 2019 (The Fiend) has managed to become the most popular character of the year?

So far, it looks like the company wants to maintain Bray Wyatt's mystique by not booking him each and every week. Even part-timers remain that way for a specific reason.

Goldberg spearing his opponents and wrestling in one-minute matches every week would become repetitive too.

So for what it's worth, Bray Wyatt has somehow succeeded in achieving that 'special attraction' status despite not being a full-fledged part-timer at the same time.
