Bray Wyatt was seen as one of the biggest stars in WWE at the time of his release earlier this year.

Just months after appearing at WrestleMania 37, Wyatt was released on July 31st. The former WWE Champion's last appearance was in April when he returned to RAW in a Firefly Funhouse segment.

From mid-2020 to early-2021, the 'Eater of the Worlds' feuded with Randy Orton before Alexa Bliss cost him a match at WrestleMania. It was believed that he would step into a feud with the latter on WWE TV.

However, Wyatt was released from the company while Bliss moved on to unveil Lilly as her new friend. He remained on hiatus until WWE released him, reportedly due to budget cuts.

There have been several rumors surrounding Wyatt's release over the past few months. The former Champion is yet to comment on the release.
