Bray should take a page out of his brother's book and chill on a farm and stay away from wrestling for awhile imo he probably needs it

I think Bray would be pretty good in AEW. So far, they've had a good sense of where to slot people and he'd be a solid upper-midcard/sometimes TNT title level kind of guy and see where he falls from there. Especially with him apparently being in good shape now.

I wouldn't want him as part of the Dark Order but there's a nice "you were friends with my friend" moment to be had there at some point.

But who even knows what he wants to do. He's had a couple kids with whatshername, maybe he's made his money and he's ready to just retire early and chill.

(edit): lol nevermind that last part, he was getting ready to come back and they hosed him

AEW would actually know what to loving do with Bray Wyatt. Plus they'd give him far more creative freedom.

The only problem is lack of TV time.

I don't love Bray Wyatt the wrestler, but the dude's insanely creative and clearly has a great mind for the business, so I'm sure he'd be able to come up with something new and cool.

E: plus, again: AEW took a guy who was doing cuck angles in the WWE (literally cuckolding angles) and made him one of their monster over heels. I'm sure they'd be able to find a use for Bray.

I kinda forgot about this but the vid you posted is a good example of it, but I always thought that changing the chyron for the supernatural wrestlers to just be the name and none of the social media bullshit was a nice touch. Bray had that treatment, Aleister Black had it, I think Taker did too? Because why would a swamp cult leader, a zombie wizard, and...whatever Aleister Black was, care about fuckin social media? Why would they even HAVE a twitter handle to advertise?

Tony was right about the teleporting. Broken Matt had run it’s course twice at that point and the current Big Money Matt gimmick is a way better fit for AEW and Matt is doing his best work in years with it while elevating a bunch of other performers.

I will disagree slightly with Tony, as without stupid magic deletion Matt Hardy we wouldn't have had the goofy swimming pool of reincarnation bit of Stadium Stampede with PnP. That poo poo was great.

I'll add my voice to those that say while AEW doesn't need Windham Rotunda/Bray Wyatt, he wouldn't be the worst addition they could make. The Wyatt Family was hugely over at the beginning, and it was due to Vince being Vince and running poo poo into the ground/discarding stuff he didn't personally like, even if it was over, that he ended up being a joke after a while.

It's time....for the MAIN event!
I think Bray CAN be good in AEW.

1.) This can help him mentally. Brodie's death hit him hard and I think a positive environment like AEW who has some of Brodie's old friends can help him

2.) More freedom with a character he'd like to do. Make a proper monster.

3.) If ANYONE could make a "make x the new DO leader" angle work it would be him as a heel version of his swamp cult gimmick. DO would obviously deny him at first but slowly twist them mentally into acceptance one by one. Is this a good idea? Probably not, but he is the only person who can pull it off.

Wyatt was a victim of his own booking, but full disclosure while I thought the Fiend was an interesting enough idea at its start I could not even begin to figure out how you book that with the Firefly Funhouse stuff on top of it.
