What's up with Bray Wyatt?

[NickGemini12]

Since February he's been out of action with a Physical Issue, & apparently is not planned to be back anytime soon according to some reports.

It's definitely concerning because if it's something that is keeping him away for that long. It must be something bad. If i remember correctly he had a physical issue before he got released by WWE in 2021. Do you all think WWE is planning on releasing him or if he'll be back at some point? Something just doesn't seem right.

[Mozenrath]

No one really seems to know for sure, which, tracks, given he seems to be kind of private.

I feel like they brought him back too early on a lot of levels. His body wasn't ready, the story was half-baked (even if I still question if Barry Windham's health issues also effected whatever, if anything, was planned), and he just kind of seemed to be of no consequence to anything he wasn't immediately interacting with.

All of his historical weaknesses have been present and magnified, and just about none of his strengths have shown up. Even in presentation, he's had major issues.

[The Rick Jericho]

I truly hope, if it heart is no longer in it again, just negotiate a buyout or release or whatever. Dude was doing fine when he left WWE for a year or so.

He will bounce back outside of WWE again.

I have a feeling at Backlash Cody will have Brock in Cross Rhodes no 8 or 9, this will surely be the one to put the beast away we cry when - lights out, DERP, one Sister Abigail later Brock F5 and so on…

Wouldn’t be that cross TBH, it’s a fresh feud and Cody much like Cena might thrive with a “monster” opponent. He certainly enjoyed feuding with Malakai Black and the Brodie led Dark Order so has an interest in supernatural characters.

[King Devitt and the Woke Mob]

I'll echo what I said in the other Wyatt thread, I just hope everything's okay.

[Push R Truth]

As you can see, the real deal with Bray Wyatt is that he's Sister Abigail's assistant. He is in his mid 30's, is married, and currently resides in Florida.

[tirtefaa]

He's getting his Ferrari engine repaired, and those parts aren't easy to find, or cheap.

[kingoftheindies]

SRS has continuously said that Bray is dealing with an illness, but there's video of him in LA talking and joking with fans so my guess is if he was sick, he got that pneumonia that was going around in the winter and just hasn't gotten his stamina back.

Could be more than that but based on the little we know that's my guess

For what it's worth WWE just released Uncle Howdy's theme music. If they had dropped everything I imagine they would have just forgotten about that. Maybe a hint for tomorrow?

Uncle Howdy is taking over. The uncle becomes the brother.

Imagine the scenario where Brock had a Mania match sloppily cancelled leading them to give him the Andre and have him carry it out on the stage for no particular reason as his Mania moment.

While his booking has been... really not good since he's come back, I put that very much to the side in hopes that he's ok. I really don't want something to be actually wrong with the man, I really hope he's happy and healthy, and he can come back better than ever.

Been one of the biggest flops in recent memory. His return pop was like an attitude era pop and each week you can just see people losing more and more interest.

The episode where Uncle Howdy revealed himself to LA and Bray just to stand there and laugh at the entrance until the segment just ended is one of the most "Crowd losing their mind at the start to absolute silence by the end" segments in wrestling history, like that crowd was so invested to see what would happen and then nothing did after like a full minute and a half...

[Banjo Is Broken]

He will come back leading an all new Dungeon of Doom complete with Top DOlla as the new One Man Gang, Braun as the New Yeti calling himself the "Abominable Strowman," and Shanky as the new Kane.

[Kay Faban]

Unfortunately the idea of Bray Wyatt is better than Bray Wyatt in reality.

[mj0mn0m]

I'm so freaking glad I never bothered to follow his comeback that closely. Someone Should've just told him to be The Fiend right from the start, that way I could:ve enjoyed his nonsense as Alexa Bliss is waterproof as far as the entertainment goes. 🤗 I do not need to see that Uncle Howdy shit ever again. 😂

Quite frankly, that sounds absolutely awful. It was awful when Bray cost Ambrose a Hell in a Cell match against Rollins in 2014, we don't need Bray to go back to being a "Get out of booking yourself into a corner free" card.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

Even if he was sick to the point where he can't wrestle right now - he worked one TV match in six months. He can be a TV character without working. It just feels weird to completely remove him and any references to him.

[mj0mn0m]

Bring out Bad Santa and let him run thru Uncle Howdy like Goldberg did The Fiend! #OneLastMatch
