The pro-wrestling fans were shocked when WWE announced via their social media that they have come to terms with their former World Champion, Bray Wyatt aka ‘The Fiend’ earlier this year. Ever since Wyatt’s release from the company, the WWE Universe has been waiting for the former WWE Universal Champion. The reason WWE gave for Wyatt’s release was because of their ‘budget cuts’ and nothing personal. Brawl: Best Moments From WWE Raw (Oct. 11, 2021) [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/wwe-news-bobby-lashley-puts-goldberg-on-notice-big-e-and-drew-mcintyre-brawl-best-moments-from-wwe-raw-oct-11-2021-sasha-banks-bianca-belair-becky-lynch-charlotte-flair-xavier-woods-shayna-baszler/] However, it is now reported that WWE had issues with Wyatt backstage. According to Andrew Zarian of ‘Mat Men Pro Wrestling [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqNidAd9AIM&t=1553s]‘ podcast, he revealed that WWE was having more than just creative differences with Bray Wyatt. Bray Wyatt and Roman Reigns [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201023194135/GettyImages-485075750-1.jpg]NEW YORK, NY – August 23: Roman Reigns and Bray Wyatt stare each other down at the WWE SummerSlam 2015 at Barclays Center of Brooklyn on August 23, 2015, in New York City. (Photo by JP Yim/Getty Images) BRAY WYATT HAD “PERFORMANCE ISSUES” IN WWE Speaking on his podcast, Zarian confessed he had been in contact with a person in WWE who gave him this inside news regarding Wyatt’s firing. He said that WWE was having issues with his weight and in-ring performances. This is what many believe resulted in a bizarre rivalry between The Fiend and Randy Orton where Wyatt was “burnt alive” just to get him off TV. “Bray was being difficult. I’m gonna fill in a lot, I’m not even gonna quote here because I have the quote [and] I don’t wanna quote it. He was a little difficult. He had some performance issues in the ring and he had some weight issues and I’m not saying that’s a reason but you kind of piece things together as to the things when you evaluate a talent and you’re like we need this” “We need that and this is the plan moving forward…sometimes the decision is easier to make if you make it more difficult for them to make that decision.” [https://www.staging.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/The-Fiend-Bray-Wyatt-560x315.jpg] It is really hard to believe that a wrestler like Bray Wyatt was having such performance issues in a company that invested a lot in him. However, it looks like Wyatt is more than ready to make his comeback in the pro-wrestling business and one place which might suit him is AEW. Where do you think we will see Wyatt next?

<h2 style="text-align: center">Bray Wyatt 2021: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Windham Lawrence Rotunda, better known by his in-ring name Bray Wyatt, is a professional wrestler currently performing on the Raw brand of the WWE. Wyatt is no stranger to the professional wrestling world, being a third-generation wrestler himself.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">His grandfather was WWE Hall of Famer Blackjack Mulligan and his father was Mike Rotunda. Even his uncles Barry Windham and Kendall Windham are great professional wrestlers, with the former also being a WWE Hall of Famer. Bray Wyatt's brother Bo Dallas is also an active WWE performer.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">With the current status of Bray Wyatt as the master of psychological warfare and probably one of the greatest modern era performers, it is hard to imagine that he started his career in the WWE with a below-average character called Husky Harris.</p>
<img class="size-full wp-image-323226 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200724232702/960x0-1-20.jpg" alt="Bray Wyatt" width="960" height="540" />
<p style="text-align: center">This one-dimensional character had no layers and was just a strong man heel due to his size. However, even before this, Wyatt's history begun at Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) in April 2009, where he was part of a tag team with his brother Bo Dallas. The duo even won the FCW tag-team Championship.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">WWE saw some spark in the elder Rotunda, and hence, he was rolled out in the second season of NXT, which worked on a reality show-like platform back then. That's where he was given the in-ring name Husky Harris, while current AEW wrestler Cody Rhodes was his pro.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Harris failed to impress many during his stay in NXT and was eliminated before the finals. However, it was not as if Husky Harris didn't taste any success.</p>
<img class="size-full wp-image-323220 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200724232530/Bray_Wyatt_main.jpg" alt="Bray Wyatt" width="1172" height="1083" />
<p style="text-align: center">Perhaps his most important WWE moment under the character came when he, along with Michael McGillicutty (now Curtis Axel), interfered in a match between Wade Barrett and John Cena, while concealing their identities. The stipulation required Cena to join the Nexus if he lost, which he did, owing to this interference.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Harris and McGillicutty would become parts of the Nexus, giving Harris his main roster debut. However, as the Nexus folded, Harris had no direction on the roster and he was soon sent back to FCW.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">It seems like this was what was required for Rotunda to undergo a creative Renaissance. He reappeared on NXT after FCW was remodeled as the yellow brand in 2012. However, this time, he debuted with a cult-leader character called Bray Wyatt.</p>
<img class="size-full wp-image-323222 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200724232557/maxresdefault-286.jpg" alt="Bray Wyatt" width="1280" height="720" />
<p style="text-align: center">Under this persona, he was given two disciples in the form of Eric Rowan and Luke Harper. It was as if he was a completely different person with his mic skills going up to a supremely intelligent level.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">The new NXT awarded talent, and the Wyatt Family became a smash hit. Their spooky inferences along with references to demon mythology were intriguing to the audiences of Full Sail University. They soon won the NXT Tag Team Championships.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Such was their success that in just one year, the Wyatt Family was promoted to the main roster.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Since then, Bray Wyatt has captivated audiences no matter what hat he has dawned. His cult leader persona saw him feuding with the likes of John Cena, Daniel Bryan, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, the Demon Kane, Chris Jericho, and many more.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">Even after being a fan-favorite, Wyatt never got adequate championship success. That's when he showcased his creative potential as he changed his character yet again in 2019.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">He began airing vignettes where he was shown as a children's show host like Mr. Rogers who had imaginary friends. However, this layered character had a dastardly alter-ego known as the Fiend which was built by the WWE as an unbeatable personality.</p>
