Top 5 best storytellers in WWE today

#1 Bray Wyatt

Enter — Bray Wyatt was headed for super-stardom at one time.

If you were privy to watch the rise of Bray Wyatt and the evolution of The Wyatt Family, you should consider yourself fortunate that you witnessed one of the most underrated storylines/factions of all-time.

Following a failed run as "Husky Harris," Windham Rotunda went back to the creative drawing board for a little persona soul-searching. The end result was the absolute masterpiece that we now know as The Eater of Worlds, Bray Wyatt. For several years, Bray Wyatt introduced the WWE Universe to a completely new form of sports entertainment. It was different, but it sure was fun to watch.

Bray Wyatt had the unique capability to captivate entire arenas full of fans, using only his subtle verbiage. Wyatt could speak softly and have the entire crowd hanging onto every word he spoke. Not since Jake "The Snake" Roberts had we seen someone with such raw, creative talent.

In light of recent social media posts and various reports, it would appear that the era of Bray Wyatt is coming to an abrupt and unwarranted end and while I believe Wyatt can come back and create more great storylines, it would be a shame if, in fact, WWE officials are repackaging Wyatt. There is simply too much money still on the table and entirely too many potential memories that will be squandered if Wyatt is no more.
