7 Reasons Why WWE Is Ruining Bray Wyatt

2. He€™s An Abject Failure

Wyatt€™s whole schtick is that he€™s a mad, backwoods prophet who tells people truths they don€™t want to hear, who confronts his opponents in their minds as much as in the ring. He claims not to care about championships, wins or losses, but about the big picture. If that€™s the case, then the character has failed at everything he€™s tried to accomplish since arriving on Monday Night RAW a year ago. After being carted off by the Wyatt Family to god knows where following his loss at Summerslam, Kane returned two months later (you know, giving him just about enough time to film a movie), attacked the Wyatts, and then, offering no explanation as to his whereabouts for nine weeks, turned heel yet again, and became Corporate Kane. It€™s almost as if the Wyatt feud had never happened. Daniel Bryan brushed off his brainwashing attempts, and then brushed off losing to Wyatt at the Rumble to leap straight back into his feud with The Authority and into title contention without skipping a beat. It€™s almost as if the Wyatt feud had never happened. John Cena€ well, it€™s almost as if the Wyatt feud had never happened, but then it always is with Cena. None of the people Wyatt€™s confronted have been affected by their feud with him in the slightest €“ and since the whole point of the character is the drama and the meaning behind the angle, not wins and losses, then he€™s accomplished exactly nothing since debuting on the main roster so dramatically a year ago. And false prophets are never taken seriously.
