According to ProFightDB, Bray has won only 36 percent of his matches in WWE. For comparison, the Ascension who are basically jobbing have the same win percentage. Think about that forms second.

I'd rather watch Nakamura.

This forum. Bray was named by Vince McMahon himself on Austin's podcast a few months ago as one of the few guys he liked along with the current WWE Champion. He wrestled in the main event and is treated as a big deal regardless of his record. The only thing I don't agree with was him not beating Taker. He should have and Taker should have had "one last stand" at Mania 32 and retire. Still, I think Wyatt has bounced back. A few months ago we where all worried Ambrose would go nowhere. Two nights ago Officer Ambrose pinned the WWE Champion and was Champion until the Dusty finish. Anything can happen. Just enjoy the show.... or don't. I don't really care, because I am, and that's all that matters to me to be blunt. Bray only lost because of the 7 ft. piece of crap, Reigns only beat Henry by a count out, and Barrett is enhancement talent. Reigns sold like a mother er and the ending protected Wyatt anyway because of Kane's interference. You can't forget. They're still building Roman Reigns to be a star. He is over, I can't see how that can be disputed anymore. I'm getting the vibes that we're getting a Bray face turn soon. Not sure why, but I feel it, and when he does it'll definitely be interesting. I don't doubt that Wyatt's career can recover. I think the real issue at hand is the WWE's horrific booking and general lack of direction for a talent like Wyatt. It feels like we (the audience) have to sit through so much horse crapjust to see a guy finally reach the heights he should've reached months - or in some cases - years ago.

It's funny cause as soon as he was pinned I knew threads like this would happen. Personally I think Bray is fine. He's been booked fairly strong when you consider he's only lost to Cena, Ambrose, Roman, Taker, & Y2J. It's not like he's losing to R-Truth, Fandango, or Heath Slater.
Honestly, I am hoping this may lead to the reformation of the Wyatt Family. They never should have disbanded and we've recently seen Rowan & Harper realign. So it's not out of the realm of possibility.

Its mind blowing how they book these types of situations. Everytime Bray takes 2 steps forward, they knock him 3 steps back. How the is this guy ever suppose to be anything if they have him lose in throw away matches like last night? How the hell does Mark Henry get a countout loss and Bray gets beat clean AFTER interference with a guy that had 2 matches already and was "hurt"?

For me, it's less about the matches he's losing, and more about how mind-numbingly dull he's become as a character. I don't think that's his fault, because they're consistently putting him in nearly identical situations. He's been treading water for nearly a year. It seems silly to think someone who just faced The Undertaker at Wrestlemania could be treading water, but there's really no other way to put it. I don't think WWE has the slightest idea how to handle a character who should be so dynamic.

There's all the talk about the Cena feud killing Bray, but I disagree. What killed him is the completely inept booking that followed it that never gave him a chance to regain any of the momentum that he'd lost in losing the feud. The feud with Jericho should have been a one-off match to begin the build-up, the total squash of the Wyatt Family after Summerslam should be wiped off the face of the earth, and he should have been kept away from Ambrose who just as badly needed a feud to give him a boost as well. It's complete and utter mismanagement.

I think the character needs to change. His promo's are getting repetitive and there are only so many guys on the roster that it makes sense to talk about demons, the fall of society, and all other types of supernatural and spititual crap.
The character was great for a while, but it just doesn't have the lasting power. Undertaker changed himself how many times. He didn't just do the same thing the same way for 20+ years. That's why Undertaker still works, and Bray Wyatt is pretty much doing nothing.

He is in quite a slump with the booking, agreed.
On the plus, Roman looked really strong again.

I never saw anything in him. In the ring he's nothing special and in his promos he's just rambling on about the same crap since he debuted. It's not that great. His character is just so stale, dull and boring.

Bray had a very low ceiling. He was never going to be WWE champion. He was at best, a separate attraction, something different. He didn't need belts or wins or whatever. He's a gimmick with a very short lifespan.

Bray Wyatt should have been in and won the Intercontinental Championship Elimination Chamber. Like if it came down to Bray Wyatt and Ryback, and as Ryback was about to hit the Shellshock, the lights went out and when they came back on he was surrounded by the Wyatt Family. They assault him, Bray hits Sister Abigail and wins the title.

He's very entertaining some times, but bores me at others.
I'm perfectly fine with WWE at the moment so can't really complain about one superstar when Raw has been okay imo for the past couple of weeks.

I can't believe he lost to Reigns after Reigns had been in two other matches.

Simply put, Bray Wyatt's potential was unreal. One of the most intriguing characters of this era. He has a great, unique look to him. Bray Wyatt is the kind of guy who needed a sh*t ton of effort on WWE's part to completely screw up, but they managed to do it. It really hurts to know that this company wasted their chance to make Wyatt a star. Unfortunately, I think Vince's dislike of old-school wrestling is to blame. Bray is a throwback to the kinds of villains we saw in the NWA or Memphis. Vince knows that Southern wrestling nostalgia still has some drawing power, but I can't see him ever putting over a character like Bray as the face of WWE, even for a short time. I hope I'm wrong.

Bray only wrestling on PPVs and the rest of the time cutting backstage promos has kinda ruined him for me. He's not a special attraction, far from it. He should be involved in feuds, appearing physically on RAW each week, having matches to further the feud. Not scary dark promo all the time.

Feeding him to Roman was a ridiculous idea, really could have been a number of other people. The loss to Taker did not hurt him, the one to Cena did. Bray does lose too often than what he should, and they really need to do something different with him, because the current formula is not a winning one, no pun intended.
