Right now, Bray Wyatt needs this win more than Randy Orton does.

That may sound strange considering what happened at SummerSlam between Randy and Brock Lesnar, but the truth is that Wyatt requires credibility and fast. All too often, the so-called 'Eater Of Worlds' fails to back up his menacing words when his big matches actually happen.

If he loses to Orton at Backlash, that will be the case once again. It's already becoming difficult for fans to take Bray seriously, he rarely comes out on top. This time, there's a way to do that whilst also slightly protecting Randy and giving ample explanation as to why he lost.

Erick Rowan could come back into the mix, aiding his cult leader. Should that happen, Orton can point to Bray hiding behind his followers and the feud can continue. Wyatt sorely needs something to cling onto, he's in real danger of falling for good if the writing team aren't careful.

A Bray Wyatt win would come as a slight shock, but that would be the intended purpose.
