“The Fiend” is one of the creepiest and darkest characters in WWE right now. His mere presence hives off a vibe like no other. Undoubtedly, he is one of WWE’s best creations and an interesting insight into the life of Bray Wyatt. 

However, even this seemingly flawless character slips up sometimes. Calling it back to an older video, “The Fiend” was once caught in a big botch that blew through his entire gimmick.

In a video uploaded by a fan who was seated ringside, “The Fiend” can be seen clearly emerging out of the ring and entering the ring to stand behind Kane before the lights came back on.

WWE was going for something entirely different. It was supposed to look like Wyatt appearing like a demon behind Kane, but that didn’t work out at all.

For starters, he emerged from his cover a second too early. This caught in in the lights and he was already exposed. The fans next to the ring saw him, clear as day.

He then covered up the entire thing well and performed for the rest of the audience who did not see him. While the entire thing ended up as planned, it wasn’t as flawless as the one that originally made this move a thing.

“The Fiend” Bray Wyatt has a lot to learn from “The Deadman”

The concept of lights going out and scary character appearing was once the trademark of The Undertaker. The legendary Superstar treaded the ring for three decades and made his lights out gimmick so popular that everyone knew who was coming as soon as it was dark.

Bray Wyatt has a long way to go but has managed to replicate a major part of the vibe. He has become his own malicious character that has much darker undertones.

“The Fiend” has now mastered the moves of the trade. ThunderDome has made his appearances a lot more chilling, and his gimmick is as evergreen as before. The team-up with Alexa Bliss gives off a very Joker and Harley Quinn-look to the storyline.

Times are changing, and “The Fiend” will soon be on top of his game for the next few months on Raw alongside Alexa Bliss. We just have to hope he doesn’t run into Goldberg on the way.
