Bray Wyatt's WrestleMania 39 match set to have interesting twist - Report
Bray Wyatt threw a curveball on WWE SmackDown ahead of Elimination Chamber, shocking fans at the revelation that he will go after the winner of the Brock Lesnar versus Bobby Lashley match in Montreal, Canada.
On the February 24 edition of the blue brand, it was made clear who the mega-star would be facing at WrestleMania 39. During a bizarre segment of the Firefly Fun House, Wyatt addressed The All Mighty's promo on RAW in which the latter name-dropped him.
Bobby Lashley and Bray Wyatt's match at the SoFi Stadium will reportedly have a gimmick, as per Xero News. While no further information was revealed, it was also mentioned that the bout would likely be made official this week along with Finn Balor versus Edge. Both matches are expected to be contested under stipulations.
This will only be Wyatt's second televised match since his return to the Stamford-based promotion in October 2022. His first match at the Royal Rumble was contested under the first-ever Mountain Dew Pitch Black stipulation.

A WrestleMania Hollywood showdown between Bray Wyatt and Bobby Lashley was the last thing anybody had in mind until two weeks ago.
With a fresh matchup and stipulation added to it, the former world champions could pull off a remarkable affair on The Grandest Stage. WWE also seemingly has major plans for Bray's first appearance at WrestleMania in two years.
For Wyatt, in particular, this may be a huge test as his last appearance at the "Showcase of Immortals" was a forgettable dud before being released by the company.
