From the WWE Rumor Mill: Bray Wyatt appears unchanged at WWE live event
What's the story?
Bray Wyatt was pushed into the Lake Of Reincarnation last week at the end of the Ultimate Deletion, amidst rumors that the former leader of The Wyatt Family could be set to be repackaged, but he appeared unchanged at last night's WWE live event.
In case you didn't know...
Bray Wyatt has been on a downward spiral in WWE over the past year and, his loss in the Ultimate Deletion match to Matt Hardy was the most opportune moment for WWE to take him off screen for a while and repackage him.
Wyatt lost the match thanks to a distraction from Brother Nero before Hardy hit the Twist of Fate and secured the pin. After the match, he was then pushed into the Lake of Reincarnation and it was reported that Wyatt's "vessel" wasn't found. This then led to rumors that Wyatt would return to WWE at a later date as a different character.
The heart of the matter
After not being seen for almost a week, Wyatt resurfaced at last night's WWE event and even sent out a Tweet before the show.
Hardy then made an appearance at the event in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada where he appeared without music and once again had a confrontation with Matt Hardy.
Could this be a hint that Wyatt could be returning to screen without being repackaged?
What's next?
WrestleMania is now just two weeks away and Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt don't have opponents for the show, could WWE be trying to find a way to extend their feud into WrestleMania?
Author's take
WWE live events rarely have any connection to on-screen storylines, but since Hardy and Wyatt are in a feud both on Raw and at the live events then this could be a continuation of the feud that fans have already seen. It would be unfair for both men to miss WrestleMania, but if they can't have a match against each other then maybe WWE will add them to the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal instead.
