10 Big Decisions WWE Needs To Make Before WrestleMania 32
6. Exactly Where WWE Want Bray Wyatt To Be For The Rest Of 2016
This is a big question, do WWE want Bray Wyatt to take that next step to genuine headline talent, or do they want him to yo-yo up and down the cards when there's a gap to fill? It looks like the 'New Face Of Fear' will oppose Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania, and the outcome of the bout is far more crucial than any first glance may suggest. Lesnar is not around on WWE cards 365 days a year, whereas Wyatt is a firm fixture of non-televised live events, TV shows and monthly specials. Putting things another way, the company must weigh up the importance of that. Brock is a legitimate superstar, he's a made man in WWE. Contrastingly, Bray finds his momentum sky rocket one moment then diminish the next. Wins against guys like Brock Lesnar would legitimise the idea that Bray Wyatt is someone for fans to take seriously. All too often in 2015, he shouted from the rooftops about being everyone's worst nightmare, then fell flat when he went up against the good guys. WWE must decide whether or not to fully get behind Wyatt, or keep him exactly where he is.
