10 Unlikely Outside Bets To Join Bray Wyatt’s New WWE Stable

If Riddle is on board, what does that mean for his injured tag team partner? Randy Orton is apparently out for the rest of the year, but in a WWE universe where Bray is writing his own rules, there’s no reason The Wyatt 6 need to show up all at once. Randy could turn out to be a final puzzle piece, teased for weeks as the man to complete the stable.

Of course “The Viper” has worked with Bray before, feuding with both The Wyatt Family and The Fiend. Neither programme was exactly what you’d call crowd-pleasing. If anything, both feuds signalled the death knell for their respective versions of the Wyatt gimmick. The maggots on the canvas ‘Mania match ruined the credibility of cult-leader Bray for good, and after battling against the “Crispy” variant, Orton eventually wrote The Fiend off WWE programming pre-release.

So, it might sound like madness to pair the characters together again as friend or foe. But then again, Triple H’s run as head of creative has been defined by his attempts to fix Vince McMahon’s mistakes. Don’t put it past him to try to succeed where Vince messed up twice.
