10 Best Moments From Bray Wyatt’s WWE Career
8. His 2014 Feud With Daniel Bryan
A wrestler is made by the rivalries they have with other wrestlers, and Bray Wyatt had many. There were plenty of stand-out feuds throughout his career, such as the ones with John Cena, Kane, Randy Orton, and more. Still, the storyline he worked with Daniel Bryan at the end of 2013, moving on to 2014, was easily one of his best.
D-Bry was a perfect option to bring into the Wyatt Family picture, and not just because of his beard. Wyatt and Bryan worked perfectly together as Bryan was a beloved babyface that fans wanted to succeed, and Wyatt was a maniacal monster capable of holding him down.
The pair had excellent chemistry and told a fantastic story about Bryan being corrupted into the group before breaking out in a monumental Raw moment that acted as a massive waypoint in the Yes Movement narrative.
This rivalry concluded with a match at the 2014 Royal Rumble that many would argue is one of Wyatt's best. It was a captivating showdown that he ultimately won.
All of this helped prove that Wyatt could tell wonderful stories and pay them off with great matches. It was also an early sign that he was destined for greatness in WWE.
