Bray Wyatt is a character of consequences. Ever since The Fiend first appeared in WWE, every Superstar who felt his wrath has changed. The former Universal Champion has faced seven different opponents in WWE so far. Four of them have completely different characters since their encounters with The Fiend. Of the remaining three, two are part-timers, and Wyatt is not finished with one.

Finn Balor moved to NXT and turned heel there, maintaining a vicious streak. Meanwhile, Seth Rollins turned heel around a month after losing the Universal Championship to The Fiend. He is now the evil 'Monday Night Messiah', having just decimated Dominik Mysterio on RAW.

The other names who have been "hurt" or "healed" by Bray Wyatt include The Miz, who returned to his most natural role as a heel, and Daniel Bryan. The five-time WWE World Champion underwent some serious changes over the course of his interactions with Wyatt's alter-ego.

The storytelling aspect of the effect The Fiend has on others cannot be ignored, with so much more potential to follow. Hopefully, Braun Strowman also undergoes a drastic character change in the aftermath of his rivalry with Bray Wyatt. It would only make him more interesting.
