10 Reasons Why Bray Wyatt Is WWE’s Worst Modern Creation

6. What's The Point?

Possibly the worst thing about Bray Wyatt is how little anything matters in a professional wrestling context.

When Erick Rowan made his recent return to SmackDown Live! after he a lengthy absence, he did so to the side of his longterm master Bray Wyatt.

Knowing their relationship after several years sharing the screen as well as the implied master/follower dynamic between the duo, this was perfectly acceptable storytelling, especially as Bray was unusually alone and without the title lifted from him by Randy Orton at WrestleMania 33.

Despite this, Wyatt looked unmoved. At the conclusion of their tag team match against Orton and former charge Luke Harper later in the broadcast, Wyatt used his usual smoke and mirrors to suddenly dodge the conflict, teleporting from the ring to the aisle.

Chuckling away to himself at his own supposedly successful mind games, he merely watched as Rowan was calmly despatched with an RKO. He continued to laugh, no-selling the loss and the latest dismal failure of his allegedly devastating trickery.

None of it mattered. None of it ever does. In Bray's own mind, he might really be 'The Eater of Worlds', but to just about everybody else he's encountered, he's little more than a fundamentally useless distraction.
