Bray needs a ton of followers, so he can actually do some significant things. His promos would be fine if they were brainwashing people into doing his bidding. Bray needs to get Project Mayhem with it if he's to live up to his supernatural slant and his "big picture" type promos. A guy like that is simply not made to have one on one feuds the way WWE books them.

Sometimes I wonder if WWE doesn't know how to book Bray Wyatt without just making him into the next Undertaker.

Sometimes I wonder if WWE doesn't know how to book Bray Wyatt without just making him into the next Undertaker. At least Taker's an intimidating looking guy who barely ever talks and when he does he usually keeps it very simple and to the point while always coming off as eternally pissed off. Bray has no sense of mystery or intimidation at all because he's a short fat guy who prances all over the place, laughs like mad, and never shuts up. He's less a scary cult leader and more a reasonably competent DM.

I've been saying for a long LONG time that Bray needs to wrestle less and act more as a manager. Even with the BS promos, they'd work if it motivated his brainwashed followers. Hell, use R Truth, Axel, Slater, and retain Harper. Any time someone didn't deliver Bray's "message", he'd punish them. It's certainly better than Bray trying to deliver that message himself and failing...that makes him look like an idiot. Yeah, someone like Bray should be more of a final boss figure. You almost never get to touch him but even if you make it through his ranks to get your hands on him there's still a serious chance you're just going to get stomped. The "Final Boss" stuff seemed like what they were doing when he had the Family. When Rowan and Harper were around, Bray almost never wrestled on TV except for job matches against mid carders. Bray isn't someone who should be wrestling on TV week in and week out. He and Ambrose shouldn't be having hardcore matches every other show.

The Church of Storm is more a Ravens flock type of stable, which I'd like Bray having.
Obviously Bryan and Cena aren't gonna join him, so there's no drama, but lower card guys with nothing to do, your Zach Ryders, have him get a few of them, bodies so that the actual people who matter can never get near him.

He also grabbed Sanada and a couple of other guys...I'm not focusing on the talent in the group necessarily, just merely that they're actually booking him the way Bray should be being booked. TNA's roster is insanely small right now, so it's fine. They didn't even acknowledge this rip off stable during house shows. He is still beer drinking James Storm. That's how little they care to book with any continuity. Sanada was still just Sanada etc. At least Bray is still Bray at all shows.

I've always thought that Bray should be booked like Raven. Have a bunch of guys that he uses but has them convinced he is helping them. Use psychological warfare and rarely let the opponent get near him unless the odds are really stacked.

Adam Rose is a better cult leader than both Storm & Wyatt imo. Adam Rose, after all, has a guy in a bunny suit believing that he's an actual bunny. Rose makes Harper and Rowan his new Rosebuds. Wyatt retaliates by making the other Rosebuds his new cultists one by one, with the bunny being his final prize. The bunny is then morphed into a buzzard.

Bray was so hot coming off of the feuds with Bryan and The Shield before running into the career killing buzzsaw that is Cena.

If he did actual intimidating things instead of just light shows, vague promos, and laughing like some heavily-sedated man, it would be better for him.

He is literally a cancer for everyones carrer and for our sanity. Its the fact that anyone who is starting to get popular has to be brought down to put Cena over. Every single outcome involves "Cena Wins" in one way or another. Zack Ryder was a perfect example. His rise was killed just to put over Cena even though Zack himself never faced Cena just being inserted into the storyline and make you be the fall guy to make Cena look better. Like the Wyatt Family were made to look like jokes to put over Cenas "friends" the god damn Usos.

TNA also did a better Ricardo/ADR split with Spud/Ethan. At least Spud didn't disappear entirely afterwards.

The Revolution stuff has started this past June, w/ Sanada changing gimmicks at the end of August. Which is right about the time they've stopped doing house shows. So I don't really see how what you're describing is possible (unless you're talking about One Night Only PPVs, which are totally different beasts taped way in advance, and thus continuity-free)

Long after the Bray Wyatt rip off gimmick started on TNA television and every member of the group wrestled as themselves prior to the group. I wrote up complete show results and everything. Davey Richards broke his leg. There was no mention or even a semblance of the gimmick.

Bray needs a ton of followers, so he can actually do some significant things. Well, maybe if that bum was on Twitter more, he'd be world champion right now!
