What’s the story?
Ahead of his WWE Championship match against Randy Orton, Bray Wyatt has been making several media appearances to promote WrestleMania. In an interview with Crave.com, the Eater of Worlds opened up about Sister Abigail appearing on WWE television.
The Context
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Sister Abigail has always been mentioned on the show in some form or fashion. For years, Wyatt has proclaimed that she is the driving force behind his evil and the reason he wants to take over the WWE. It’s as if Abigail is an empress and deserves the entire world, but she is nothing but a name at this point.

Last month of SmackDown LIVE, the WWE finally opened up the realism of Abigail. Randy Orton burned down the Wyatt compound and defaced Abigail’s grave. However, Orton hasn’t had to face any consequences for his actions.
The heart of the matter
When Wyatt spoke with Crave.com about Abigail appearing on WWE TV, he didn’t really give a straight answer.
"That's a challenging question and there's not a simple answer to it. I get a little confused. I don't know what is real and what isn't. That's just the nature of me. Can I say never? No, I cannot. Can I say for certain? No, I cannot. But I see her and feel her and that's as real as it needs to be."
What’s next?
Hopefully, Wyatt will bring out Abigail and enhance his presence on TV. He’s a great character who has done the most, arguably, to tell a convincing story and keep kayfabe alive. Alas, things change in the WWE.
Author’s Take
Sister Abigail needs to debut in the WWE. There are a few talents in NXT who would flourish in that role. Two that come to mind are Ruby Riot and Nikki Cross. They’d be a great addition to the WWE roster, as well as the Wyatt Family. Give him the WWE championship, the keys to the kingdom and Abigail by his side. He’d be the hottest act in wrestling.
