7 Reasons Why Bray Wyatt Shouldn't Wrestle On TV Until WrestleMania 32
3. Lessons From Sting
There was once a time in WCW where Sting went rogue and mute, didn't wrestle or speak for 14 months. Because the one opponent everyone wanted to see him wrestle was one of the most iconic names in wrestling history, people didn't care that Sting didn't wrestle or speak for over a year. If Bray Wyatt just showed up in arenas, at PPVs, on the Titantron and just stared silently and deeply into the camera, people would be excited and eventually get the point. Build up Bray not talking until, say, Royal Rumble where he breaks his silence and screams "UNDERTAKER" and points at the Wrestlemania sign. 100,00 tickets sold on the spot.
