The fact WWE haven't pulled the trigger on Braun Strowman vs. Bray Wyatt yet is a slight surprise, even more when realising that both are now on the same brand again. Creative clearly saw something in Braun before everyone else, which is why he was separated from the rest of The Wyatt Family during last summer's Draft. That's your story right there.

Once Bray is finished meandering along in another whimsical feud with Finn Bálor, he'll need something meaningful to do. There are few hotter characters on Monday nights than Strowman, so opposing him and decrying his need to flee the flock in the first place could be Wyatt's next major issue. Braun would benefit too.

After beating Roman Reigns at Great Balls Of Fire, Strowman is in the Universal Title mix, but he likely won't bag that belt for a good while. Feed Wyatt to the big man instead and he'll only look stronger. It's not like WWE are going to magically start coming through for Bray, is it?
