The final hour of Friday Night SmackDown wasn’t a good one for Bray Wyatt – all thanks to Braun Strowman. The main event would start with the Firefly Fun House.
This edition of the Firefly Fun House would be centered around love. Wyatt discussed about the impact “too much love” can have on anything. Wyatt would then try to create the Braun Strowman and Alexa Bliss love story with his two puppets, Huskus and Ramblin’ Rabbit.
The Eater of Worlds would then cut his own story short. He would go on to suggest that love only leads to suffering, pain and said that everyone should be built on rage and fueled by anger just like him.

Wyatt then had a sniff around and would randomly say “What took you so long?”. Out of nowhere, Strowman attacked Wyatt and dragged him off the Firefly Fun House saying, “I’m not finished with you.”

As SmackDown returned from a commercial break, Strowman continued his assault on Wyatt. The Monster among men would then throw Bray Wyatt off the ledge in the dock loading area. That’s where the scary part would happen.

After being injured, officials would take Wyatt into an ambulance for medical attention. In a shocking turn of events, the back of the ambulance would become fully red and The Fiend would appear staring along with his wicked laugh, dead in the eye of the Blue Brand officials, as SmackDown went off the air.

The WWE Universe now witnessing a changed Braun Strowman
The Horror Show at Extreme Rules was the unexpected baptism for Braun Strowman which has turned him into the monster he is currently. Strowman knew very well that to change his future, he had to go back to his past into the swamp.
However, the swamp changed him forever. The Monster among men would disappear for a couple of weeks post the PPV.
When Strowman returned, he did the unexpected. Strowman would attack the one person who was the nearest and dearest to him i.e. Alexa Bliss.

Nevertheless, one has to agree that WWE has done a brilliant job on this rivalry in recent weeks. The rivalry between the two stars before COVID and at the start of Wyatt’s return wasn’t up to the mark.

The addition of Alexa Bliss to the story was a masterstroke by Vince McMahon. The WWE Universe will keenly be awaiting SummerSlam two days from today.
