Maybe it was just me taking a break from the shows for a while, but the Wyatt's just seem really out of place in the current landscape, like they've ran their course and I can't believe this is still a gimmick they're going with. Which is a shame because at one point they showed a lot of potential and had some good momentum, but it was just never capitalized on. What really hurt them more than anything was never having a clear purpose with where they were going with the whole cult leader thing, and Bray never evolving past his (very good) one-dimensional, creepy vague bullshit promos. Even the one thing that was still really great about them, Luke Harper's big man workrate style, isn't all that great for them right at this moment. They just make me groan when they show up now, because they speak in riddles, ruin everything that's good, and lose anything of importance - plus they're stale because they haven't changed or evolved in 3 years ... unless you count adding a new member as evolution. This act was cool once. That time is long gone.

I'd prefer if they stayed off all shows.
Forever.
Like, besides Luke Harper, they are three of the worst wrestlers I've ever seen in the WWE in recent memory.

Eh, Rowan's not that bad and Bray's a pretty talented guy who just has absolutely nothing to work with. And of course, Braun Strowman secretly is so good he makes Ricky Steamboat look like Braun Strowman.

He's very green, though, and shouldn't be main eventing shows like he has. He's not ready for that. As a destructive brute, I think he's good.

No crap given
They squandered another good stable. Time to move on

Yeah, now that it's turned into another vehicle for Vince to try and make the fans buy into another guy with more size than talent, I'm over it. Give them a dancing gimmick and move on.

Strowman and Rowan will at least be in the Andre battle royal.

Imo Bray being injured is the best thing that can happen to Strowman. Strowman is really green and Bray is the only reason why he's in the position he's in. With Bray gone, that gives Strowman more breathing room to cut his teeth in the lower midcard. Well, one, Bray's fine. Two, you know full well WWE would not do that and they're going whole-hog on him regardless. 3... he really isn't in any position currently. He's like the number 3 guy in the Wyatts... who are pretty much incompetent and never accomplish anything.

Strange, but at least they can say they opened the NY stock exchange today, I just saw the update on my FB feed.

I'm sad about Bray's fall from grace. I really hope he appears at Mania. Unless it's to be humiliated by Rock, in which case he would be better off watching it for free on the WWE Network.

Of all the WWE personalities they could have put out there, they went with the teleporting hillbillies? They looked like they got lost going to a Walking Dead convention. At least Eva Marie wouldn't get booed out of the building there. Although she probably would've been catcalled and offered trade proposals involving IPO stock for a fingerblast. Now that I think about it. Maybe the Wyatts were the right call.

I think you'll see more of them after Mania. Sometimes there's just not enough room on the card for everybody - it was also a weird year given all the injuries. I think the fact that they aren't shoehorning in the Wyatts says that the company still cares about them.

Imagine if they tie this in to RAW on Monday.
Taker has won and Triple H is still champion or Roman has gone corporate. Authority is still in charge and we're all depressed...
Until it turns out that the Wyatt Family bought 51% of WWE stock. #DownWithTheMachine
Eurgh. I actually want this to happen now.
