We humans like surprises, but not the kind which WWE is giving us for more than a year now. Vince McMahon’s company came to terms with their hottest wrestlers in recent times – Bray Wyatt aka The Fiend.

Reportedly, the reason for his abrupt and untimely release is that the creative team did not have any further plans or storyline for his character, which absolutely is unfathomable. WWE had to change Alexa Bliss‘ gimmick just because of Wyatt and they had nothing planned for Wyatt himself.

With his mind-numbing promos to his exceptional athleticism inside the ring, ‘The eater of the Worlds’ would become a legitimate threat for wrestlers in the company.

He won the WWE Championship and was tag-team champion with Matt Hardy as well. But once he saw that his original gimmick is going stale for the audience, he came back as ‘The Fiend’, a masked demon who just won’t go down.
