Bray Wyatt might be a fallen gem who can never revert to his former glory but his alter ego, the enigmatic Uncle Howdy, can for sure. Since the last few days, WWE has been heavily teasing the idea of Bo Dallas’ return as the accomplice of his late brother. If that materializes, fans can at least get a piece of Bray Wyatt that they have always been looking for since the star breathed his last. As a testament to this huge sentiment of fans regarding Windham Rotunda, we saw a dedicated fan donning The Fiend mask.

As a matter of fact, the passionate fan’s tribute only came to light courtesy of another figure who has close personal ties with an esteemed wrestler.

A deep cloud of melancholy loomed large on the sky of the entire wrestling realm on Aug. 24, 2023, when the news of Bray Wyatt’s sudden demise left the fans and veterans deeply disheartened. The cloud has been lingering here ever since, as fans are still struggling to get over the heart-wrenching event. From Husky Harris, being a cult leader to The Wyatt Family to Firefly Funhouse Bray to The Fiend, Windham Rotunda etched such a legacy that goes beyond the cycle of life and death. Among all of his extra-ordinary gimmicks, The Fiend which dates back to 2019, stood out as the highest manifestation of Wyatt’s creative mind.

The supernatural figure used to send chills down the spines of the viewers whenever he showed up in the ring to flaunt his iconic mask. Until the WWE Super Showdown in February 2020, The Fiend remained undefeated. It was WrestleMania 37 in 2020 when the mysterious figure wrestled a match (against Randy Orton) for the last time. It’s been four years and fans still keep it fresh in their memory.

Wyatt remains a much-beloved figure post his untimely passing. His storied legacy would have recorded a sharp rise if his intended clash with Roman Reigns had come to fruition. A former Bloodline member revealed the scrapped plans the WWE had in store for Reigns and Wyatt.

While speaking at the Gorilla Position, former Bloodline member Jey Uso noted that the initial plan for Roman Reigns’ Tribal Chief character was to butt heads with The Fiend but later it has been nixed for creative ease. ”At first, I think the first angle that Roman was supposed to have was with The Fiend, but I don’t think The Fiend would have elevated The Tribal Chief the way it came through me. It was just leveling up every single week.” Uso said.
