WWE Raw: 10 Things You Might Have Missed (Oct 9)

4. Halloween Havoc

Bray Wyatt Finn Balor

Bray Wyatt (or Sister Abigail, or f**k knows who anymore) noted that it was the 'Season Of The Witch', foreshadowing the Halloween outfit he'll sport nine days before All Hallows Eve at the Tables, Ladders and Chairs pay-per-view.

A crude licensing deal must be why the company persist with digging up the charred remains of the last Wyatt in order to deck the bearded hillbilly out in drag. It's that, or merely a trick at 'The Eater Of World's expense, because it certainly won't be a treat.

In employing an untold new level of Bray bells and whistles in this wretched, wretched programme, WWE have inadvertently topped their own worst effort from earlier this year with Randy Orton. The 'House Of Horrors' is no longer a spooky cottage, but any arena that plays host to Finn Bálor standing there like a mug and having to suffer it like the rest of us.

Finn followed the segment by explaining to Renee Young that he 'knew what he needed to do'. Does he have his own Sister within him? Learned perhaps from 'Irish Mythology'? Demon Vs God. Man Vs Man. Now it's time for Woman Vs Woman.
