No WWE main roster act has attracted more acclaim than The Fiend lately, with Bray Wyatt's new character drawing widespread plaudits for his awesome introduction as the company's new terrifying monster.

From the Firefly Fun House and first attacks through to his spellbinding in-ring debut at SummerSlam and recent assault on Jerry Lawler, The Fiend is killing it at the moment - and the best may still be yet to come.

This is according to Jason Baker, who designed The Fiend's mask and recently spoke about Wyatt and his character in a new interview with Gamespot, claiming that everything about the gimmick "is Bray's brainchild," and that his task was to bring Wyatt's original sketches to life.

Most interesting were Baker's comments on The Fiend's future. When asked what's next for the terror, he started by saying "I can't talk about that, that's beyond my pay grade," but did offer a little tease: "fans need to keep watching because they haven't seen anything yet. If they think this is the greatest thing to ever happen, they just need to keep watching. It's going to blow them away."

Sounds brilliant, whatever it may be. Here's hoping it delivers.
