What happened at the very end of the big match?!
What happened at the very end of the big match?!

At WrestleMania 37, Night 2 got underway with The Fiend taking on Randy Orton in a straight-up match, to kickstart the proceedings. The Fiend seemed to have things well under control until Alexa Bliss, his companion, seemingly betrayed him!

While the world still reels from the betrayal, let's have a look at what The Fiend can potentially do after WrestleMania. Where does Bray Wyatt go from here, after his crushing WrestleMania 37 loss?

Here are 5 opponents that The Fiend could take on after WrestleMania 37. If you think we've left someone out, be sure to leave a comment and let us know.

PS: An optimistic person could say that this is the Bo Dallas return story. As cool as that would be, he's been missing from WWE television for so long, it does seem unlikely. Of course, The Fiend taking on his real-life brother, Bo Dallas, would be the best-case scenario, all said and done.


#5 After WrestleMania 37 concludes, Randy Orton vs. The Fiend continues

This is the least exciting prospect on the list, but one has to wonder if Alexa Bliss and Randy Orton formed some kind of alliance to take The Fiend down.

Let's just be honest. The build for The Fiend vs. Randy Orton leading up to WrestleMania 37 hasn't exactly been Hogan vs. Andre or Austin vs. The Rock. Nobody wants to see this feud drag on beyond WrestleMania.

But maybe one last match will play out between Randy Orton, now with Alexa Bliss, and The Fiend.

Becoming Randy Orton's manager or valet would allow Alexa Bliss to drop the supernatural avatar and revert into her Goddess persona again.

But let's look at four far more exciting options in the pages that follow.

#4 Is The Fiend entering an inter-gender feud with Alexa Bliss next?

The Fiend and Alexa Bliss can feud with one another in a cinematic environment. WWE has traditionally shied away from inter-gender matches but they could make an exception in this case, as these are two performers who've embraced the cinematic format.

Both of the performers seem to have supernatural powers, which could be channeled in a cinematic match. Purists may scoff at the idea of a match of this nature, but Lucha Underground and even IMPACT Wrestling have both entered this forbidden realm in the past.

The Fiend and Alexa Bliss obviously like working with one another behind the scenes and they are both fantastic actors too. Perhaps the idea of a split gives the pairing greater longevity and allows them to break new ground.

Both The Fiend and Alexa Bliss have already taken us down so many untread paths before that it is only natural for them to create history with a brand new format. Who knows what major inter-gender feuds we can see, as a result?

#3 Could Aleister Black be repackaged and paired with Alexa Bliss to take The Fiend out next?

The Fiend can seemingly tap into the powers of darkness and channel them through supernatural means. There is yet another star who has a connection to the dark side much like The Fiend and his name is Aleister Black.

After what was quite the push last year, it does seem like he has lost a lot of his momentum. The Fiend vs. Aleister Black could be a feud that puts him back on the map again. And for Alexa Bliss to be his manager/valet will add a brand new dimension to his character.

We've seen King Corbin from SmackDown move to RAW recently, so there is no reason why Aleister Black cannot follow suit as well. Plus, because he's been off television for so very long, this is almost like a fresh new start for the man. Aleister Black and The Fiend can elevate each other, and Alexa Bliss can be an integral part of the storytelling process.

#2 Will we see Braun Strowman vs. The Fiend again?

So, The Fiend and Alexa Bliss were paired until recently but there's a certain individual who has a history with both of these parties. Braun Strowman was a member of The Wyatt Family, and subsequently was one of Bray Wyatt's antagonists in 2020. As for Alexa Bliss, she was portrayed as Strowman's love interest!

For Alexa Bliss to abandon a monster like The Fiend, chances are that she has found yet another monster of her own. Who better than Braun Strowman, who's high on momentum after defeating Shane McMahon?

Braun Strowman and Alexa Bliss could be a team that goes on to win much gold and glory in the days that follow.

It's not like The Monster Among Men needs a manager, but a pairing with Alexa Bliss could be the missing ingredient that launches him to the next level. It may help him move away from the silliness surrounding his feuds and wipe out the stench from the Shane McMahon program for good.

#1 Or maybe The Fiend just goes after the WWE Champion

While The Fiend reels from his loss to Randy Orton, do check out this tribute we've put together for Alexa Bliss. We've explored four storyline possibilities for The Fiend, but maybe he has a more material target in sight!

Bobby Lashley is still the biggest heel in the company, while The Fiend was a babyface going into WrestleMania. There is likely to be a match to determine the No.1 Contender on the RAW after WrestleMania, and The Fiend could very well win that.

The Fiend vs. Bobby Lashley is a contest that can go either way because of how much both men have been protected until now. Once you beat Drew McIntyre clean in the middle of the ring at WrestleMania, where do you even go from there?

Yes, it's unfair to have the WrestleMania loser become the No.1 Contender immediately after, but WWE has ways around that. There is a reason we all prefer scripted sports where the rules can be bent, right?
