The Disturbing Truth Behind Sister Abigail

The clues suggest as much: Morgan’s lilting laugh may have soundtracked a September Firefly Fun House vignette in which Wyatt, winking to the camera, said “There’s always room for one more”. Morgan’s Twitter activity provided further clues, one of which—‘You can’t see my scars’—may have made reference to the HEALing process of Wyatt’s glove.

And now, WWE wardrobe designer Erica Gimbel may have let something slip on Twitter with a fairly spoilerish post: a picture of a Victorian dress design, captioned ‘Let Her In’, in which Bray Wyatt is tagged. Of course, WWE has promoted that a new addition to the Fun House will be revealed on this Friday’s SmackDown. Morgan has been speculated for such a role for months.

But why would the Fiend need a valet?

What’s she going to do: flash her t*ts at her babyface for the distraction finish? Why would she need to do that? The Fiend, to the point of farce, is an unkillable monster. Are we getting season two of Mixed Match Challenge? Could this actually be good, logical in a way nobody but Bray Wyatt could conceive of, and, if so, how long until they ruin it?

Say WWE doesn’t debut Sister Abigail, and Morgan if anything is something entirely new to the Wyatt mythology: is there any hope for this figure in WWE storylines? Further reminder that Wyatt once played Abigail with a lisp.

Ultimately, Sister Abigail is proof that WWE isn’t equipped to craft any sort of mythology. The disturbing truth behind Sister Abigail is that “she” is something WWE made up as they went along. “Her” touch could save Bray Wyatt, but WWE’s kiss of death will burn Bray Wyatt to the ground.

At the end of the day, it’s f*cking Bray Wyatt.

Don’t let hope in.
