I'm just saying don't blame WWE for this, that's where I'm going. People are like "OH I HATE WWE F*** YOU FOR RUINING WYATT!", it's not so much a defense as it is saying if this flops, it's not on WWE. This is Bray Wyatt's choice, and he's worked on this for months. Not everything is mean old WWEs fault, sometimes guys are given the chance to be their own thing and it flops. Harper and Rowan were the same thing, everyone thought this was WWE ruining them with a GIANT HAMMERS gimmick but Harper and Rowan PITCHED IT to WWE and they got the green light, it was all them, good or bad. I hope that's not the case here though, this has a ton of promise and I hope it succeeds, but this wasn't WWE booking hells move, this was all from Wyatt.

On paper all that was quite silly, but Wyatt's commitment to it has already made it my favorite thing of the year and optimistic that it'll lead to a big push for him.
Do we know which brand he's going to be on? I feel like, they've been doing promos for him on both and I'm not sure which one is best suited for him. There's a part of me that wants him on Smackdown as I consider it the better, more developed brand, but not knowing if he's going to be portrayed as a heel or face makes me question where he'd actually fit.

The silly sound effects and cheering children make this far creepier than it would have been without them.
What was the witch character’s name? That was the only one I didn’t quite catch.
I noticed a rabbit on the logo. I can only imagine what that one will be like.

My main fear about this is commentary. They have a knack for making stuff worse. I want this to have its own commentary team that plays along. Or better yet, no commentary at aLloyd’s.

Yeah, the commentary have been spotty as hell in terms of how they work with the Bray stuff in the past. Hopefully, if this does have any of Bruce's fingerprints on it, that'll be used to keep the commentators from just shitting all over it and ruining it.

That, and the Waylon Mercy reference with Mercy the Buzzard, shows me that unlike a lot of stuff WWE's done lately, someone (likely Bray himself) has actually put some level of thought into the gimmick/story.

The way it is now for Wyatt's stuff is perfect. They are just saying "What is this?", that's the way to do it, have even commentary be confused by Wyatt.

His face and cadence really give me a weird alternate reality Vic Mackey vibe.

He reminds me of Monokuma from Danganronpa.

He reminds me of Monokuma from Danganronpa. I can kiiiinda see it, but while Monokuma's cheery and playful he's very direct in his hatred for you and never really tries to hide how evil he is.

After years of Wrestlecrap that is depressing, cringeworthy, or outright offensive, I am so happy that this is wholesome, goofy, and balls-to-the-wall INSANE Wrestlecrap.
This is the best thing Bray Wyatt's ever done.

I absolutely hated Bray Wyatt since he debuted on the main roster, but this I can get behind. This could be what demented heel Doink should have been.

I for one, am intrigued. This has the possibility to be either amazing or go down as among the worst stuff seen in wrestling. There's no middle ground.
Kinda surreal to hear him talk in a normal voice.

If anything, this would be more reminiscent of a Monokuma Theatre skit than the persona that interacts with the characters.

I need to see Bray rant about how every red food secretly has lobster in it.
