Bray wyatt
 
How long can people see this character lasting ??

The Condor 08-25-2013 07:46 AM

Not being a curmudgeon here, just honest: I already don't care about the character.

Theo Dious 08-25-2013 08:48 AM

Neither do I. Would be better as a solo act and with a little less manufactured creepiness.

Shisen Kopf 08-25-2013 09:11 AM

I like his entrance music

Razzamajazz 08-25-2013 09:33 AM

he has the power to blow out lightbulbs

Cool King 08-25-2013 09:37 AM

I like Bray Wyatt and the rest of the family.

Though they really haven't done much so far other than beat up people and Bray has had two matches, even though they've been around for very nearly two months now. They work the gimmick well, especially Bray. Him on the mic is fantastic, but that's about it really. I can't really say anything else about them because they've not really done much else that can be praised or criticised.

I will however say that their entrance could do with losing the "We're here" part.

It was all well and good for their debut and it actually worked fantastically well, but other than that, seeing the same video of them saying the same thing when it's supposed to be them doing it there and then, just gets a bit cheap after a while.

If they did the whole "We're here" bit live, then it wouldn't be so bad.

I want to know what the fuck they did with Kane. WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO KANE!!!11!1!11

Cool King 08-25-2013 10:45 AM

He'll probably appear with a bit of a beard and be part of The Wyatt Family.

AKA: They've brainwashed him.

Volare 08-25-2013 10:48 AM

That would actually be bad ass.

screech 08-25-2013 10:55 AM

Cool King wins because Kane.

glanville6 08-25-2013 12:14 PM

They definitely don't have the impact the Shield had. Shield has been with Main Event talent since day 1. And there were no vignettes for them. I think constant weeks of promotion can lead to excitement, but usually ends up in disappointment.

The gimmick seems to be ok, but they haven't done anything really exciting yet.

Anybody Thrilla 08-25-2013 12:20 PM

Give it a minute. I'm sure they'll be involved in something noteworthy pretty soon.

DrCrawford 08-25-2013 12:22 PM

I liked the vignettes and all, but its just not coming across tv properly. and the lightbulb in the lantern needs to go

Corporate CockSnogger 08-25-2013 12:57 PM

I've only seen that match against Kane at Summerslam but I thought it was pretty sweet. More interesting than like 90% of everything else in wrestling.

weather vane 08-25-2013 01:01 PM

I think it is awesome. If you think it isn't that good then im not sure what you are looking for.

Anybody Thrilla 08-25-2013 01:04 PM

It's so different from everything else that I think some people don't really know how to settle into it and just let it be. Papa Shango never had this problem because we were kids at the time. I love the flash cuts from the segments with the goat mask and the little scream or whatever. It stands out tremendously, and that's not an easy thing to do all the time.

Agree that the Shield had a bigger impact earlier on since they got to be involved with a lot of big stars while the Wyatt's have just worked with Kane.

The Wyatt Family is moving at a slower pace but makes sense since their gimmick is more story-based than the Shield which takes more time to develop.

Curd 08-25-2013 01:26 PM

The Wyatts would be so much better if they could use Ministry of Darkness-like innuendo. The faux satanism would get some evangelical press and more views from rebellious teens.

Curd 08-25-2013 01:27 PM

Maybe Erick Rowan could dress like a Goat of Mendes instead of come out as Lamb Chop.

#1-norm-fan 08-25-2013 04:10 PM

More creepy Wyatt promos solve everything.

Bray always comes out with a Brooklyn Lantern. Endorsement deal, anyone?

johnsmagic 08-25-2013 10:05 PM

I haven't seen his match against Kane yet. But the match from raw on Monday the crowd did not give a reaction either way I see it lasting a month longer then so long pal back

Lock Jaw 08-25-2013 10:34 PM

I liked Bray Wyatt's last promo on NXT. He seemed to have an "energy that could barely be contained by the ring" like some major superstars in the past have had (and John Cena lacks).

So I can see him being pretty big if the WWE lets him, and the fans take to him one way or the other.

Wake Up Call 08-26-2013 01:53 AM

In my opinion, they need to stop the pack mentality, That's the Shields "thing." Let Wyatt be the head of the group, but also let him show he's the boss. He just comes off as a guy that needs help to win, why not let him dominate his first couple matches? Make him an absolute beast. Gives him credibility in the ring.

The only thing I see happening, is Kane comes back, they go inside the Hell I. A Cell, Kane wins, momentum is done and this group dies a slow death

Volare 08-26-2013 01:56 AM

I thought about the whole Kane "brainwashed" idea and they could actually use it as a plug for an Undertaker return down the line. Taker returns to claim Kane and bring him back. I dunno sounded good to me.

Tommy Gunn 08-26-2013 04:58 AM

I think the tag team is Festus and Festus without a snappy Jessy character. The Festus's of destruction!

Bray Wyatt is more interesting than Husky Harris as a character, but his ring-work does nothing for me.

seapig4 08-26-2013 08:29 AM

I think they just need some more time and a better feud.
I really think that they should have a face stable to go up against for a prolonged amount of time.

wwe2222 08-26-2013 11:07 AM

love the gimmick and the job he is doing with it. It is one of the best characters they have introduced in a long time. I liked Husky Harris and glad to see him in this role. Unfortunately, they get zero reaction when they come out so not sure how long it will last.

The LED lantern is stupid though.

MoFo 08-26-2013 03:41 PM

His henchmen are cool.

Husky is fat. Almost an Oddities vibe to them rather than anything creepy.

parkmania 08-27-2013 11:37 AM

The main problem I see with him is that he has no motivation to the character.

Why'd he leave the bayou? To recruit new family members? He had Kane and R-Truth both carried away, but they are still themselves. To spread the word? Okay, but his speeches haven't been focused on any specific thing. Did he come to "get" someone? We haven't heard anything of the sort.

So he's just a creepy guy? I guess, but there COULD be so much more to the character that just has not yet seen development.

The Condor 08-27-2013 12:16 PM

Parkmania nailed it. There is no motive, the promos are meandering similes and metaphors. There is nothing to these guys (yet?). We'll see but I just do not understand what makes them so great and creatively stimulating to some people. I get Brad Maddox but I don't get these guys for whatever reason. It just comes across as a bastardization of the popular Duck Dynasty show going on now with a cult flair. That's all I get from it. Ministry of Rednecks. More rambling, and Im probably coming across like Tedious in the RAW thread (love ya buddy :) ). I just don't get it I suppose.

Theo Dious 08-27-2013 08:51 PM

The frequency with which I've been mentioned in ways only tangentially related to threads I've posted in convinces me that I'm far more over than I thought and this warms my heart.

KIRA 08-27-2013 10:02 PM

He comes across like a poor mans Raven,don't get me Wrong Wyatt is good he's just not as good imo, plus Raven got shit done (gained a following) but time will tell I suppose.

Mercenary 08-27-2013 11:53 PM

It's creepy,and love it

weather vane 08-28-2013 12:08 AM

Fans want a payoff so quickly these days... Give it some time.

This is why there is NO tag division anymore. Fans are way too impatient, the second a team gets together people are already asking how/when they will break up. Guys used to tag together for at least 5 years before a breakup would be mentioned.

Very valid point. I think my issue isn't about giving these guys time, because I am, but more the unfounded hype and sheer amount of praise these guys have received for what has been nothing more than bland ring work and a different, though as yet undeveloped and weird gimmick. Can you be optimistic and have hope? Most definitely, but Im sick of being told how great and unique these guys are when most people would be willing to say that they haven't shown anything approaching those adjectives yet.

weather vane 08-28-2013 10:55 AM

I think it comes from just that, it's different.

Plus the promos/segments have been excellent for a bunch of new guys.

teamXtremist 08-30-2013 11:40 PM

Hopefully well c a wyatt family v shield feud .ambrose v wyatt would be ok I guess

whiteyford 08-31-2013 09:34 AM

I thought Husky was the best promo man on NXT when he was on it, the stuff he did on the revamped NXT impressed me and he's been solid enough with what he's done since moving up to the main roster, the entire Wyatt family have been decent IMO. It's only been a few weeks though, they stand out but that's all they've had going for them, I'm personally glad it was Kane they got as their first 'feud' because he's a big name that they can afford to sacrifice cleanly as opposed to being hotshotted into a feud with Cena and being jobbed out or lost in the shuffle higher up the card.
