10 Reasons Why Bray Wyatt Is WWE’s Worst Modern Creation
1. Supernatural Inconsistencies
Possibly the worst thing about Bray Wyatt is how unclear it is what he's capable of beyond regular human behaviour.
He can teleport, this much we know. Repeated occurrences have seen him exit stage left into his reliable rocking chair.
The aforementioned WrestleMania projections show that his spider-walk pose can summon images from the insect world onto the canvas with little-or-no peril caused to his opponent.
Previous other stunts have seen holograms emerge unexpectedly, and his uncanny knack of extinguishing electronic lanterns is a huge hit at parties.
To again use the comparison of The Undertaker (and to a lesser extent, Kane), though, the veneer of believability thanks to a convoluted but well-honed backstory and over 25 years of power beyond human understanding allows for suspension of disbelief. Flashes of lightening, the odd fire, and maybe even the occasional return from the dead are subsequently acceptable.
Similar tricks are integral to whatever character it is Bray is trying to portray, but they almost never result in success for the Wyatt family doyen. Outside of the time he summoned a child to ringside to sing 'The Whole World in his Hands' in order to escape a cage in victory over John Cena, few of the cunning conjurings have made an impact.
They're merely reduced to being an elaborate part of the show allowing Bray and his inevitably damaged opponent an escape hatch from yet another turgid contest.
