6 Ups & 5 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Dec 6)

Ups...

6. Bray Wyatt's Creepy Promo

Bray Wyatt is at his best when he's allowed to weird others out. His switches between childlike innocence and haunted, almost possessed maniac are wonderful to see play out, and he was in his element on this week's SmackDown. The opening promo he cut might fly under the radar, but it shouldn't.

Wyatt successfully breathed some interest into Miz's quest to find out what happened to his old enemy Daniel Bryan. By saying Miz wouldn't want to know and then smiling the creepiest of smiles, Bray hinted that he might just have a hold over Daniel again.

Only this time, it'll be legit.

Also, the way Wyatt had that family photo of Miz, Maryse and their young daughters prepared was borderline stalker behaviour. Later, he spookily replaced Miz with himself, and that again pushed his serial killer vibes.
