It feels like Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton have gone from mortal enemies to allies in the blink of an eye. Last week saw Orton gift Bray an RKO-assisted victory over Kane last week, and Bray and Luke Harper did the same for The Viper last night. The Wyatt Family came together to secure their union later in the evening, with Orton saying he was “born with the devil in his ear,” and that he’s “done trying to fight it".
Bray is utterly convinced that Orton is on his side, but Harper? Not so much. The drone-like henchman flashed Bray a look of sheer disbelief as he welcomed Orton into the Family’s embrace, and it remains to be seen whether or not Orton’s intentions are legitimate. If he’s genuine, Orton joining the Wyatt Family means terrible things for their rivals, but if not? He’ll destroy them from within.
For now, however, the new Wyatt Family are in a tremendous position on SmackDown. Regardless of whether this is a long-term alliance or not, Orton, Wyatt, and Harper comprise a formidable group of wrestlers capable of overturning anybody on the roster. Kane has already been flattened on multiple occasions, and for now, there are very few SmackDown superstars who look capable of stopping them.
