Bray Wyatt was initially scheduled for a match against Bobby Lashley at WrestleMania 39, but due to an undisclosed illness, it was scrapped. With Wyatt’s absence in the WWE Draft 2023, there is speculation surrounding his potential return to the company. In this regard, five possible scenarios for Wyatt’s WWE comeback are discussed.
#1. The storyline with Alexa Bliss
A major part of Bray Wyatt’s storyline involved Alexa Bliss during his time as The Fiend. With Wyatt’s return to the company at Extreme Rules 2022, there could be a possible reunion between him and Little Miss Bliss. WWE has linked Alexa with Uncle Howdy, who is also part of Wyatt’s storyline.
#2. Compete for the World Heavyweight Championship
Bray Wyatt has not held a world title for nearly three years. There is a possibility of Wyatt’s involvement in the upcoming tournament to crown the new World Heavyweight Champion. He could make a surprise entrance in the event taking place at Night of Champions on May 27.
#3. Reunite with Uncle Howdy
Uncle Howdy, a mysterious character who was initially considered Wyatt’s enemy, later became his ally. WWE might decide to set up Wyatt’s return by featuring Uncle Howdy on both RAW and SmackDown. His ominous promos and vignettes could hint at the Eater of Worlds’ arrival.
#4. Feud with Cody Rhodes
With Cody Rhodes failing to win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 39 and subsequently engaging in a feud with Brock Lesnar, WWE could have Bray Wyatt and Cody Rhodes face off. Their enmity could culminate in a match at SummerSlam.
#5. Form a stable with Isla Dawn & Alba Fyre
Newcomers Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre have supernatural gimmicks, which could align well with Wyatt’s persona. Upon his return, Wyatt could form a stable with Dawn and Fyre on SmackDown, further enhancing their mysterious aura.
