A far more recent entry now from a man who has seen an incredible career resurgence over the past few months.

Everyone is buzzing about Bray Wyatt and his alter-ego The Fiend. He is arguably the most over wrestler in the world right now, but a few months back before his Firefly Fun House vignettes began airing, Wyatt visited a Canadian tattoo artist who is known for his eye-catching designs to get this done on the back of his left leg.

Whilst Wyatt hasn't yet explained publicly the reasoning behind this nightmare fuel, the sleuths over on Reddit Squared Circle may well have deciphered what it is.

The general consensus appears to be that this is an irezumi-inspired image of a Nue, a mythological Japanese creature, sometimes referred to as a Japanese chimera. A Nue has the face of a monkey, the legs of a tiger and the front half of a snake for a tail.

In an ominous warning of what may be to come from The Fiend, Nue's are apparently evil monsters and "the few times that humans and Nue have crossed paths, the results have been disastrous."
