WWE News: Hall of Famer reveals how WWE can keep Bray Wyatt's Fiend character special

What's the story?

After Bray Wyatt's incredible re-debut on last week's RAW where The Fiend decimated Finn Balor, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray has revealed how he believes WWE should treat Wyatt creatively, and how to keep the character special.

In case you didn't know…

On this week's edition of Monday Night RAW, Bray Wyatt finally made his first live appearance following the Friefly Funhouse series, laying waste to Finn Balor in what might go down in history as one of the most impactful re-debuts of all time.

The heart of the matter

Speaking about Bray Wyatt's re-debut and how WWE can stop the character from fizzling out, WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray opened up on Busted Open Radio.

The key to this working and having longevity is Bray Wyatt and the willingness to protect this character, the same way the Undertaker protected the Undertaker, you have to. This is a special character that cannot be overexposed, it cannot be allowed to get burnt out.

The former WWE and ECW man praised Monday night's segment, but sent out a warning.

If you pick your spots with Bray Wyatt, just like they did Monday night, you will have something special. If I'm Bray Wyatt, I'm looking at a couple of the hurdles the Undertaker had to get over with that character, that is very similar to the fiend character, right now.

Thinking from Wyatt's perspective, Bully Ray continued:

I want to keep myself fresh, nothing can be given away, nothing should be done with the Fiend that is a throwaway and doesn't even matter, everything has to mean something.

If you take a look at the Fiend, it's really kind of a gimmicky gimmick. This is like Doink was taken to the millionth level. You don't want it to get stale, how do you not make it stale? You make it special. You don't do it every single week, you find the right people at the right time, and the right time is when you normally expect it to happen the least.

The WWE Hall of Famer concluded:

Bray is the key. He is the one to make sure, he has got to say no. if they say, 'Hey Bray you're going to go out there and do this,' if he doesn't feel 100% right, he has to say no and he has to stick to his guns. It's hard, but he knows what is going to get this character over. Nine times out of ten, the wrestler knows what is going to get their character over better than creative does.
