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. Wyatt borrowed the money from a friend of his father. |

They will probably ruin the Brock/Dean match when they'd be more welcomed in the Triple H/Roman match.

Strange, but at least they can say they opened the NY stock exchange today, I just saw the update on my FB feed.  (They ring the bell and I'm like "Bloody hell, JBL's making a run-in AH LOVE IT MAGGLE")  Brau Wyatt at the NYSE.......Thank God for insider trading and laundering. |

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. You know, I agree that it was once cool, but there's no context to what they are talking about. I mean, prior to Roadblock, Bray's talking about a serpent with 7 heads, 10 horns, and crowns on each of the horns, and what the hell is that supposed to mean? Symbolism only works if people are able to draw parallels between your concept and the intended target if it makes sense. I mean, he could've at least gone into the Assyrian fable about the behemoth and that could've worked better. They are a joke, and with the one guy I care about shelved for most of the year now, it's just a fat guy with a beard talking nonsense and two stiffs. How is that threatening? Well, at least I'll be able to watch part of WrestleMania Sunday and we'll see them stink up the joint in the battle royale. |

But then it wouldn't be vague and creepy... and he'd actually have to have a motivation rather than being used as a get out of booking free card. |

Strowman isn't good, but is he that bad?
Granted, he doesn't entertain me or anything, but from what I can tell, the little he can do at this point is done...satisfactorily, I guess. They don't need him to do anything but be a standard creepy looking hoss for now.

Well, that's sort of the problem with Wyatt now; he IS the get out of bad booking free card where they can justify God knows what by putting him in the fray. I think you can still be creepy without vagueness. At this point, it's a joke. |

They don't need him to do anything but be a standard creepy looking hoss for now. For a green big guy, he's okay. The problem is that being in the Wyatt Family forces him at/near the top of the card. He's the kind of guy that should be starting from the bottom with an undefeated streak or something and working on his craft. Especially since they had him skip NXT. |
