Randy has had much more success after this storyline as he was on fire the last 2-3 years before his recent injury.
But when we look at this point in time, 2016-17 Randy Wyatt, does this still hold up? To me, it felt like Lesnar kicked his ass so much that all the brain trauma he received turned him into a short term Wyatt.
Does this storyline still hold up for you today?

Really wish they'd kept it up because it was probably the most interesting either Orton or Wyatt ever was and they had vastly more chemistry as partners than they ever did as opponents.

And don't forget the wildcard in all of this was Luke Harper. He had that like two week face turn where he wore GREY instead of WHITE, so he was a face, at least for that very short period and I loved it. They should've kept him face. The tag titles should've been Freebird Rules just like how New Day did. Have all 3 combinations be able to defend the titles. |

RKO went undercover to burn down the Wyatt shack. Literally the only thing I remember out of this. |

It was like my favourite thing that Orton had done in years up to that point but it still annoys me that Brodie wasn't given way more shine in that whole angle and ended up as a brother of bludgeoning afterwards.

I just wish Orton committed more to the role. Like have a full blown Wyatt outfit, grow the beard out, stop brushing your teeth, etc.

It was weird in that it had an awful act 1 and an even worse act 3, but it was almost worth it because act 2 was so strong.
Harper should've been put in the the WM match to make it a 3-way, it looked like it was going in that direction until it didn't.

RKO went undercover to burn down the Wyatt shack. that entire segment ruled. From what you see in that GIF, to Bray practically begging for Randy to stop it. Such good stuff. |

At this point if they were to do anything more with Bray Wyatt and if Randy Orton decides not to retire, I think they would be a great current tag team.

It was basically the same thing they did with Daniel Bryan a few years earlier.

Randy has had much more success after this storyline as he was on fire the last 2-3 years before his recent injury. The first thing he did after this storyline after it had finished after fighting Bray in a crackhouse was losing the WWE Championship to Jinder "I melted the cup" Mahal. |

Really wish, especially with hindsight, that the Randy/Wyatt giant sperm WM title match should have been a triple threat with Brodie/Harper.

A reminder that Randy lost that match versus Bray because Jinder attacked him. |
