The former WWE Universal Champion Bray Wyatt was previously released by the company in July last year amid the budget cuts. His last in-ring appearance came at WrestleMania 37 when he lost to Randy Orton. He has been away from pro wrestling for quite some time. It was reported that he had been working on a horror film project along with special effects artist Jason Baker.
WWE removes Bray Wyatt entrance song
One of the fans on Reddit, TrippleWins recently noted the WWE removed Wyatt’s original “Live in Fear” theme and The Fiend’s “Let me In” theme from the official WWE Music YouTube account. It seems that WWE might be removing the themes of wrestlers that do not work for WWE anymore. The fan also noted how WWE removed Aleister Black’s theme song as well.
During the days of the Wyatt Family, Bray had cut his promos on a rocking chair. While speaking on Foley Is Pod, Mick Foley revealed that Wyatt had reached out to him about a pitch influenced by Foley’s 2004 promo on Randy Orton.
“I remember him telling me, ‘Hey if you have a chance … I’m doing this thing, got a rocking chair.’ He alluded to the promo I did with Randy Orton.
I thought it was one of the best things I’d ever done and this is where Vince talked to me about the wisdom of doing it backstage instead of in the ring, because I could focus 100%. You didn’t have to wait for beats or pops, you didn’t have to get a cadence down, you didn’t have to worry about somebody yelling ‘what’.
By being able to do that backstage with the barbed wire bat in the rocking chair, alluding to the things I had done in Japan and the lengths I was willing to go, the things I was willing to do to human beings who were respectful and kind, that I was wondering what lengths I might be willing to go [with] Randy Orton.”
Wyatt is already planning for a highly-anticipated comeback. ‘The Fiend’ was WWE’s most popular superstars before he was shockingly fired last Summer. As ‘The Fiend,’ Wyatt was one of the very few supernatural characters to get over with fans. Though he built popularity, there was a feeling within WWE that Wyatt was doing more harm than good.
