#4 Real reason behind Bray Wyatt being absent from WWE

Former WWE Champion Bray Wyatt was last seen on the RAW after WrestleMania 37. It was believed that Wyatt would feud with Alexa Bliss who had turned on and cost him his match against Randy Orton at WrestleMania 37.

However, Bliss has moved on to targeting Shayna Baszler and the program between Wyatt and Bliss seems to have been left in limbo. As per PWInsider, the reason for Bray Wyatt's absence from WWE is creative having no plans for him as of now.

"We are told Wyatt has purposely been kept off TV. It is not a case of he has heat for anything as he is well liked. The Randy Orton match, we are told, went 100% exactly as planned."

#3 Original plans for The Fiend vs. Finn Balor

Andrew Zarian of Mat Men's podcast revealed that there were plans in place for a match between Finn Balor and Bray Wyatt in 2020. When asked if WWE were planning to have The Demon King take on The Fiend at SummerSlam, he said that there were no such plans for this year.

However, Balor and Wyatt were set to clash last year but couldn't do so because of changes that took place after COVID-19. The Demon King and The Fiend are two of the most popular supernatural characters in WWE and a showdown between the two is something the fans have been demanding for a long time.
