Do you see a potential ME run coming in the next 6 months to a year? Word is HHH wants these guys to get mega over (Since they are one of his "experiments" and the others (Sheamus, Cara etc) didn't work out too well

I'm sure that they'll do some sort of bigger angle with them, but I'm honestly not sure where they fit in at the moment. I'd guess that they'll rampage through mid-carders with a brainwashed Kane or until Kane comes back and then feud with him, but after that who knows?

I thought they should've had The Uso's win the tag titles off of Rollins and Reigns and then have the Uso's feud with Harper and Rowan over the belts. The Shield's push has cooled down so they really don't need them anymore, especially if they're just gonna act as thugs for HHH for the time being.

How is it exactly that Sheamus "didn't" work out?

and the others (Sheamus, Cara etc) didn't work out too well I wouldn't say Sheamus didn't work out too well, but that's a thread for another time. Wyatt could easily be main event material in time. His followers I'm not so sure about, they are a "wait and see" deal. So far Bray hasn't had the greatest matches but Brays promos can more then make up for flat matches, though squash matches and a "Ring of Fire" match hasn't exactly given him much room to prove himself. The best thing for Bray is that his gimmick is so hard to really sum up that he can say and do whatever the hell he needs to to be the heel and it not seem out of place for his character. There's a lot of room to bend him into spots they need filled.

They shouldn't let Rowan and Harper near the tag belts till they're ready to turn them face.
Bray is a cult leader, he shouldn't be letting his minions achieve anything that might put them on his level, or higher.

I don't know, I think it actually adds to his mystique if he spends most of his time in his rocking chair egging on his followers to do most of the heavy lifting, with Bray himself only wrestling on special occasions.

I'm honestly not sure if Harper and Rowan would be pushed that hard in their own right. I see them as a team who could dominate assorted midcard pairings like Zack Ryder and Justin Gabriel, but would probably just be glorified "monster jobbers" who get outfoxed in the ring by anyone "relevant" (i.e. Ziggler, Miz, Rhodes, etc.).

Agreed, but it should all be about him. Them winning the tag belts would "bring glory to the sheep and not the shepherd" or some such nonsense. If they do win them it should be the catalyst for the "Why do we put up with this shit?" Moment.

They all seem limited. Outside of the promos the wrestling is Subaru and dull and the two big guys look like your prototypical useless big slobs. I don't see a huge future for any of them really.

I think he could use more followers, actually brainwash guys on the roster that they're not using or some NXT guys who could do well with the group.
Also who they feud with is key. Feuding with someone like Kofi would be horrible, as he honestly doesn't seem to give a shit about anything and it'd just be boring match after boring match. Kane is a good start, but he's going to need more people to actually oppose him and at least hold their own on the mic with him.

Kofi would be a good choice for a feud if they just let him have some kind of character development. You can't have the Wyatts running through all the "top guys" or it's just going to hit a point where Creative books themselves into a corner with either having to give Bray Wyatt a World Title or shove him down the card. If they continue the way they are by having Wyatt run through Ziggler, Miz, Show, Henry, RVD, Punk, then it'll look like a big step down once he's done with them, and there will be a bunch of threads about "how hard the Wyatts have fallen" or "who did Bray Wyatt piss off backstage?" Instead of trying to shove the Wyatt Family into the "main event" and trying to make him look like a "big deal fairly quick", they shoild let them run rampant and let the midcard faces step up to THEIR level.

I don't want them rocketed to high t fast. Then there's only down to go. Slow builds don't exist anymore and that's fine, but lets just them run rampant for a while.

God, I hope they don't get a main event run, or at least not any time soon. Love the performer but the Bray Wyatt gimmick doesn't remotely work for me so far.
Though if Punk ends up with the Intercontinental title, I could see a filler semi-main feud where Wyatt goes after him and gets the belt. Wouldn't particularly want to see that either but it'd beat them opening and closing every Raw or something.

It could actually be real awesome if Bray brings up Punks SES days and claims he was a false prophet misleading and stealing Wyatts rightful followers.
