Bray Wyatt is one of the biggest names in professional wrestling and now appears to be a free agent. WWE, in yet another shocking announcement, has released one of its most popular stars.

Where Wyatt goes next is anyone's guess, as he could head to AEW or even IMPACT Wrestling. He could even take a leaf out of the book of his former Wyatt Family teammate, Erick Redbeard, and wrestle in the independent scene. Wherever he goes, the superstar is almost guaranteed to find success.

Though his time in WWE was not what it could be, Bray Wyatt had numerous runs in the company to be proud of. Invariably, whenever he had the Wyatt Family under him, things changed for the better.

As a cult leader, Wyatt was second to none and that can be seen in some of the feuds that the Wyatt Family had.

In this article, let's take a look at the top five feuds of the Wyatt Family under Bray Wyatt.


#5 Bray Wyatt and The Wyatt Family vs The Brothers of Destruction

The Brothers of Destruction, i.e. Kane and The Undertaker, were the perfect opponents for The Wyatt Family. With both wrestlers demonstrating their supernatural powers and Wyatt "stealing" the said powers, it was a slightly silly but extremely entertaining feud.

Any time The Undertaker and Kane are involved together, they tend to put on storylines that the fans would enjoy. With the supernatural Wyatts, they could not have been better paired.

The two teams were perfectly suited to each other's brand, and as a result, whenever they entered the ring, they created magic.

The feud the two teams shared remains one of the best feuds of the last decade, with the shenanigans involving the supernatural powers of the two groups only making it more memorable.

#4 Bray Wyatt and The Wyatt Family vs The Usos

While early on Erick Rowan and Luke Harper aka Brodie Lee, were only recognized as the faction members of Bray Wyatt's family, soon it became clear how proficient they were as a team.

Their feud against the Usos was the best indication of that. At a time when their in-ring abilities were being called into question, it became clear the Wyatt Family had been underestimated as they had some of the best matches against The Usos.

Their feud eventually ended in a two-out-of-three falls match at WWE Battleground with both teams helping each other stand out from the crowd.


#3 Randy Orton vs Bray Wyatt and The Wyatt Family

While it was mainly Luke Harper as part of The Wyatt Family for a large part of the feud, this was still one of the more interesting feuds that Wyatt had in the company. The ending of the feud might have been disastrous at WrestleMania 33, but everything leading up to it was nothing short of genius.

Randy Orton joined Wyatt and Bray even won the WWE title at Elimination Chamber. But when Orton turned on him, there was no looking back. Every moment leading up to their match at WrestleMania was magical. Unfortunately, the match ruined what could have been Wyatt's best WWE feud.

Perhaps the two were cursed, as even their latest feud ended with a horrible match at WrestleMania, where after a massive build-up, Bray Wyatt lost. Now that he has been released, it remains his last match in the company.

#2 Daniel Bryan vs Bray Wyatt and The Wyatt Family

Going by the sheer amount of mind games involved, Bray Wyatt did a spectacular job going up against Daniel Bryan. His entire Wyatt Family was set on convincing the superstar to join the faction, and join he did.

He was the first wrestler to be added to the group who was not a part of the original faction. He was haunted by the Wyatt Family and had spectacular matches with them at TLC and Survivor Series.

It appeared that Bryan was completely under Bray Wyatt's control, but he escaped his grasp to turn on them and it was a key moment in his journey to become the top face in WWE.


#1 The Shield vs Bray Wyatt and The Wyatt Family

This feud was the first and the best faction vs faction feud in WWE's modern era of wrestling. Firmly establishing both teams as indomitable, it helped them both to become fan favorites.

The two had been heel factions intent on destroying everyone they faced. The Wyatt Family cost The Shield their spots in the Elimination Chamber and when the match between the two teams finally took place, it was the audience that won. Chants of "This is awesome" saw both teams cheered, irrespective of anything else, as the sheer brutality they put each other through met the base desires of wrestling fans.
