The World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) universe was recently treated to a unique behind-the-scenes (BTS) look at a memorable moment in sports entertainment history. The company released a never-before-seen clip that showcased the late superstar Bray Wyatt’s cinematic encounter with Braun Strowman. The video captures the two wrestling giants sharing a laugh and enjoying the process of filming their Swamp Fight, a match that has since become a part of WWE lore.
The rivalry between Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman began in April 2020 when Wyatt challenged Strowman for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Their first clash took place at the Money in the Bank event that year, where Wyatt was defeated. However, the Eater of Worlds didn’t back down and returned in June to confront Strowman once again. This time, they faced off in a Wyatt Swamp Fight at the Extreme Rules event, where Wyatt emerged victorious, adding a significant chapter to their storied feud.
In the BTS clip shared by WWE, the camaraderie between Wyatt and Strowman is evident as they prepare for their cinematic showdown. Strowman reflects on the experience, expressing a wish that the match could have taken place in front of a live audience. Despite the absence of fans, he acknowledges the special nature of the encounter, saying, “Yeah, I wish we could have done what we did in front of a hundred thousand people, but, like it was special!”
The Undertaker, a legendary figure in the WWE, also weighed in on Bray Wyatt’s impact on the wrestling world. On his Patreon page, The Undertaker revealed that he believed Bray Wyatt would have been the most fitting candidate to end his iconic WrestleMania streak. He reasoned that Wyatt’s character would have benefited immensely from such a victory, more so than Roman Reigns, who ultimately broke the streak. The Undertaker elaborated on the parallels between their dark personas, suggesting that Wyatt breaking the streak would have been a significant accolade for him and could have extended the legacy of The Undertaker in a new way.
Bray Wyatt’s creative genius and his contributions to the WWE have cemented his place in the annals of wrestling history. His innovative approach to character development and storytelling in the ring left an indelible mark on the industry. As fans continue to reminisce about his performances, the legacy of Bray Wyatt, one of pro wrestling’s brightest minds, will undoubtedly endure for generations to come.
