In his latest piece, Caden Moran discusses how Randy Orton joining the Wyatt Family has transformed one of WWE’s brightest stars, Bray Wyatt
When I think of Bray Wyatt, I think of a complete star and the total package. From his in-ring talent to his brilliant mic skills, Bray Wyatt has “Face of WWE” written all over him.
However, even with all of Bray’s incredible complements, he has yet to reach the top of the mountain even with the numerous teases and opportunities that have been shown. After many defeats and losing all momentum, I lost faith in Bray Wyatt & I believed that the WWE would never pull the trigger on what could be a total megastar.
After a stunning addition to The Wyatt Family, Bray’s future has suddenly changed for the better as a 12-time World Champion has helped transform him and has helped carry Bray into the light of WWE as a champion. That man is Randy Orton.
Randy Orton is one of the greatest of all time in the WWE. His transformation into the icon he is today is unprecedented. Pairing him with one of WWE’s young stars was a brilliant idea. Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt have two very similar characters and personalities as “The Apex Predator” and “The Eater Of Worlds” are a match made in heaven.
Orton’s involvement with The Wyatt Family has proven to transform Bray Wyatt by allowing Bray to feel more confident, have more opportunities, and by giving him a fresh road to reach the top as a champion.
Bray Wyatt has always been the type of guy to go out to the ring and give it his all. Win or lose, Bray Wyatt will fight his heart out.
However, after numerous losses, Bray’s confidence had to have been shot down. That is just an assumption, but if you were labeled as one of the WWE’s best young stars and you lost match after match after match, wouldn’t you lose all self confidence?
Since the implementation of Randy Orton joining The Wyatt Family, we have seen an entirely new Bray Wyatt. Before Orton, Bray seemed like another guy on the roster and after Orton, Bray has become one of the faces of Smackdown LIVE. Bray’s attitude and newfound confidence has given him new life by allowing him to connect with the fans (something that was disappearing before the Draft) and allowing him to express himself in the ring and on the mic.
Bray’s newfound confidence due to Randy Orton has allowed Bray to reach new heights in his career. The WWE Universe has been clamoring for Bray Wyatt to become a champion in the WWE and with the help of Randy Orton, he finally has. It may not be the Intercontinental or WWE Championship but Bray Wyatt finally has gold around his waist as one half of the WWE Smackdown Tag Team Champions.
Thanks to Randy Orton’s guidance, Bray has reached his potential in the WWE and the biggest reason for that, and my final point, is due to the incredible teamwork.
Remember how I said Bray and Randy are a match made in heaven? Go back to Survivor Series when Randy sacrificed himself to allow Bray to get the win for Team Smackdown or at the Tables, Ladders, and Chairs event when Bray distracted Rhyno to allow Orton to get the win and claim the titles. Bray and Randy’s teamwork has allowed both men to reinvent themselves to become not just better wrestlers, but better stars.
Before Randy Orton, Bray was just another guy lost in the shuffle with no true direction and since Orton has gotten involved, Bray has been a completely new person. From being more confident to becoming a champion in WWE, Bray has been transformed into one of WWE’s top guys and I have no doubt that Bray has yet to reach his full potential. Bray will be a world champion in WWE and it will be thanks to Randy Orton.
