10 Most Damaging WWE Defeats

10. Randy Orton Over Bray Wyatt

Over recent weeks, Bray Wyatt has once again succeeded in arousing the interest of the WWE Universe. If nothing else ever comes of Woken Matt's Monday Night Raw debut, then this - should it endure past WrestleMania - is surely a welcome side effect thereof.

That the Eater of Worlds should rely on someone else to help him rediscover his mojo, however, is perhaps also an indictment of just how far he has fallen over the preceding 12 months. He's gone from being a promising young star to someone whose time in the spotlight has been - and very swiftly - passed.

There's now a broad consensus among fans that Wyatt doesn't belong in the main event, part of the evidence for which being his abject failure to deliver a WrestleMania-worthy match when he stepped into the ring with Randy Orton back in April.

More than his performance, it was the result that was really damaging. After defeats to Undertaker and John Cena, he could ill afford another on the Grandest Stage of Them All. This should have been the moment to rid him of his reputation as a perennial runner-up - but instead, it was reinforced in the worst possible way.
