I’d rather have had roles-reversed and Wyatt winning the Rumble (his career could be in a totally different place if so), however, the story kept on writing itself. Despite this, Orton and Wyatt won the tag team titles before handing them over to American Alpha.ĭissension started to show roots for the ‘new’ Wyatt Family when Orton won the Royal Rumble. This was such a fascinating story which led right up to Payback 2017.ĭuring this run, Orton and Harper weren’t getting on well – due to jealousy on Harper’s behalf. This was until Wyatt believed he had Orton hypnotized and in his hands. They already lost Braun Strowman to a dominate single’s run on Raw and Wyatt and Harper were the only members over on Smackdown Live. The Wyatt Family was close to falling out during the 2016 Brand Split. Fantastic story-telling which was done in a similar fashion with…Īnother alumni member of the Wyatt Family is “Greatest Wrestling Match Ever” winner, Randy Orton.
It was entertaining, creative and it gave Bryan an incredible moment with Bray Wyatt inside the steel cage. This was one of the most notable Wyatt Family feuds during their run and for good reason. If you have a beard you fit the criteria so Bryan put the coveralls on to “Follow the Buzzards”.Įven though Wyatt, Harper and Rowan believed they had Bryan controlled, we all knew this was a smart game plan to betray Wyatt and get a one-up in their feud. Maybe Rowan should have had a pet rock instead of a spider to commemorate this.ĭaniel Bryan had his last encounter with Wyatt at Royal Rumble this year but beforehand, he had a fantastic ‘Take Them Out From The Inside’ ambush.Ģ013 saw Wyatt try to lead a new sheep into his herd by recruiting Daniel Bryan into the Wyatt Family. This led to Rowan losing to The Rock in six seconds, which was the last match we saw The Rock in.
The Grandest Stage of Them All isn’t electrifying until the Rock graces the world, however, on this night, the Wyatt Family defused the spark and decided to go face-to-face with “The Great One”. WrestleMania 32 saw the horrifying confrontation between the Wyatt Family and The Rock. Well into forgettable Wyatt Family feuds, they had their shortest but greatest WrestleMania moment as a unit. Nevertheless, the beginning of the Wyatt Family was setting them up for an epic future. Unfortunately, this didn’t happen and Wyatt was rather used to cut a chilling promo, only to keep letting down his word. He sent Kane to hell in his own gimmick match and was ready to tear down the whole roster. Wyatt defeating Kane in a Ring of Fire Match at SummerSlam 2013 set him up as the next demon. Kane may have been well past his prime at the time, however, he still had the star presence as the demon. This was furthered with their first rivalry against Kane. Also, the lantern and the sheep mask “followers”. Despite this, when the Wyatt Family debuted on the July 8 edition of Raw in 2013, they sent shivers down the crowd’s spine, as they were in the presence of a what should have been a big deal.Įverything about them was intriguing and terrifying at the same time! The creepy vignette before the entrance, the eery theme song which is made even more amazing with the Fiend remix. He even lost the rivalry against Chris Jericho in 2014. He had the unforgivable one with John Cena at WrestleMania 30 – before getting his redemption at ‘Mania 36.
Wyatt may be remembered for being on the losing side of most of his feuds. This means they must’ve had some great moments during their tenure. With strange gimmick matches and main event storylines, the Wyatt Family was the top team under the Shield at the time. This anomalous family of unusual bearded men was one of the creepiest factions back at the start of the last decade. However, before Wyatt and Braun started feuding, we had the Wyatt Family. Extreme Rules: The Horror Show will be home to the Swamp Fight between Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman, with Wyatt looking towards his second Universal Championship in the Summer.
