Backstage update on Bray Wyatt's AEW status ahead of tonight's Dynamite episode - Reports
If the rumors swirling are any indication, then Windham Rotunda fka Bray Wyatt won't be appearing during tonight's episode of AEW Dynamite.
Posted on the Figure Four Online message board, Dave Meltzer stated that he has been under the impression that the former Universal Champion will not show up for Tony Khan's promotion this week. He added that unless there has been a significant change to the situation in the last 24 hours, AEW fans might not see Bray Wyatt this Wednesday.
The news comes after Cageside Seats reported that despite still being under his 90-day non-compete clause, Wyatt is likely to make his debut on AEW Dynamite in Rochester, New York, his late friend Brodie Lee's hometown. Bray Wyatt's appearance was supposed to be on purpose, to honor The Exalted One's incredible legacy.
However, fans will now have to wait until the end of October to learn about Wyatt's next destination.
Brodie would hate to see us fighting. 🖤 https://t.co/oBvwlpnpDJ
