#2 WWE buried the Fiend once again

WWE is notorious for controversial booking decisions, but The Fiend's loss to Randy Orton at WrestleMania was incomprehensible. Orton burned the monster alive at TLC and put him out of commission until Fastlane. When Bray Wyatt returned, he was a different man with a new attire. A reinvigorated Wyatt was the last thing Orton needed.

This program should have been The Fiend's comeback story. The vengeful demon could have returned to haunt his demented and sadistic nemesis, who had caused him immense pain. Plus, the victory would have carried much more meaning, as Wyatt had previously fallen victim to Orton at WrestleMania 33.

Wyatt needed some time off for personal issues, but WWE wrote him off in a terrible way. Alexa Bliss betrayed him at WrestleMania, but she could have burned the Firefly Fun House with Wyatt inside on the night after the show. That way, her betrayal would have been even more shocking, and Wyatt could still have his victory.

But his loss to Orton was the final nail in the coffin. Despite putting in so much effort, Wyatt never seems to break the ceiling. He has become just another guy on the main roster, and it's hard to see how WWE can salvage his character at this point.
