8 Recent WWE Storylines That Didn’t Go Anywhere

4. Bray Wyatt & The Lake Of Reincarnation

On that note, didn't Bray Wyatt fall into the "Lake Of Reincarnation"?

Trying to make logical sense of that "Ultimate Deletion" fight scene on the 19 March Raw may be foolish, but the clue hinting what should have happened to Bray was in the name of the body of water he fell into. Despite returning as Matt Hardy's tag-team partner, nothing else about Wyatt has changed.

He still does that odd crab walk, encourages opponents to "run", wears the same clothes and talks in the same mystical babble. The only difference is that he's, for whatever reason, loyal to Matt, and that doesn't fit one description of reincarnation as, "a new version of something from the past".

Bray's current characterisation isn't new. There's been no attempt by WWE to follow up on the chance to repackage him as something fresh, and he'll probably slip back into his empty threats and creepy Sister Abigail talk once he splits from Hardy anyway.

It's almost like WWE booked this without knowing where they were going...
