“Second to None” – Seth Rollins Labels Bray Wyatt a “Special Man” Who Gave Him Something He Never Could Have Imagined

Bray Wyatt’s tragic demise has left a big void in the wrestling world. Fans are shocked and still can’t believe that their favorite superstar is no more. He enthralled the audience with his creative storytelling and fans always looked forward to seeing him with his bag of tricks.

Even after a week, condolences keep pouring in from fans and superstars alike. And Seth Rollins just gave his due respect to one of the greatest creative minds to ever grace WWE.

Seth Rollins still remembers the first time he heard Bray Wyatt

Both Seth Rollins and Bray Wyatt aka Windham Rotunda had their humble beginnings in the FCW (Florida Championship Wrestling) which was later rebranded into NXT. During his time at FCW, Rollins had the chance to witness Rotunda describe his then-new character of Bray Wyatt to the entire FCW roster.

On his recent appearance on WWE’s After The Bell podcast, Rollins and the host Corey Graves talked about that very promo class of Bray Wyatt they both witnessed together.

Rollins said, “What it turned into, I could have never imagined, that was special, but I can’t remember the time, place, I don’t remember the day, I don’t remember, we had a million promo classes, but I remember distinctly the first time I heard his voice, that Bray Wyatt delivery, that cadence, that whisper changed everything. And then he was off to the races from there.”

He went on to praise Wyatt for his patience and resilience in delivering that character and believing in his creativity. He added, “His creativity was second to none. Character work and effort that he put into that character and what the vision for Bray Wyatt was, second to none.”

But as Rollins reminisces about Bray Wyatt’s creative genius, let’s take a trip down memory lane to when Rollins and Bray Wyatt were feuding.

The Shield and The Wyatt Family feuded back in 2o14

The Shield was the most dominant villainous fraction in its time. And the only other group that ever gave competition to them was the ominous Wyatt Family.

Both these rams eventually settled their differences at Elimination Chamber which the Wyatt family won. Later on RAW, The Shield had another chance to settle the scores but again lost to The Wyatt Family as Reigns walked out during the match. The Shield eventually broke up sometime after that match with Rollins attacking both Ambrose and Reigns.
