5 Ways Bray Wyatt Can Become The Face Of WWE

Along with R-Truth's 24/7 title exploits, Bray Wyatt's Firefly Fun House segments have been the highlight of Monday Night Raw in recent times. The goofy presentation with sinister undertones has been endlessly entertaining, keeping audiences guessing where they're going to go next.

Whether WWE can capitalise on Bray's rejuvenation once he actually returns to the ring remains to be seen, however. The potential is there, mind you, for Wyatt to finally course correct years of stop/start pushes and show what the character can do when he isn't just being used to put over someone else.

'The Eater Of Worlds' is a rare thing to behold in WWE nowadays - a competitor who actually has a gimmick. With The Undertaker getting closer to retirement every day, Bray could easily fill the void of a larger than life, mythical presence, haunting fellow superstars. He's been touted to do so for years, but has never been booked strong enough to fulfill the prophecy. That can all change upon Wyatt's return, with his new 'Fiend' persona in tow.

With WWE going through tough times as of late, with rapidly declining ratings and live attendances alike, they desperately need someone to step up and grab the attention of the WWE universe. Bray Wyatt can be just the savior they need.

As mentioned, it's been the backstage vignettes Bray has appeared in that have revitalised his career. They shouldn't simply vanish once he makes his triumphant return to the ring either. Wyatt needs something to keep him interesting and unique; his in-ring and backstage promos (where it was just him alone in a darkened room) became stale and repetitive during his previous run. Having puppets to bounce off, along with sets and props to utilize, have helped keep Bray's appearances fresh.

Eventually, the former leader of The Wyatt Family can bring allies (more on them later) to join him in the twisted sketches. Along with that, Bray could even abduct his rivals and hold them hostage in the dreaded Firefly Fun House, where victims are tormented by the demonic puppets. If that sounds a bit out there, don't forget backstage theatrics were a staple of the Attitude era, and 'Broken' Matt Hardy gave his career just the shot in the arm it needed with his unconventional out of ring antics.

With rival companies embracing a more sports like presentation, WWE should go all in on this bizarre and captivating aspect of the show, reminding fans why the entertainment part of the program can be just as enticing as the wrestling part. These segments will set Bray apart from and above other superstars.
