Wrestlers can be re-packaged and pushed at anytime in their careers, but I think in order for a wrestler to be a REALLY huge deal, they need to make a very significant stride within their first 2-3 years.....otherwise, you risk 'over-saturation'. That's not to say that a wrestler still can't become huge, but the chances of him being a REALLY big fucking deal diminishes greatly.
If you look at guys like Austin, Rock, and Cena, these guys started to become massive superstars around their 2nd/3rd year in the company.
Bray debuted on RAW on July 8th, 2012.
My opinion is this:
IF the WWE can push Bray in a very significant way this year, he still has hope of becoming something huge. Will he be the next Austin/Rock/Cena? No. Can he reach the level of a Triple H/Undertaker? I believe so.
However - If the WWE doesn't do anything significant with Wyatt this year (i.e. consistently going over big names in the WWE such as Reigns, Orton, and John Cena), then I think Wyatt will be the next Sheamus, Alberto Del Rios, Big Show, etc. (i.e. an upper mid card wrestler that gets a few main-event level pushes every now and then, but ultimately ends up getting lost in the mix).
