When someone else is given elements of a character you originally portrayed, then you are released because the company has too many spooky characters:

No God damn sense. These budget cuts are so mysterious, the first thing they do is to go after Bray of all people?

Good move for both parties. Bray was great at creating and performing interesting characters, but terrible at translating them into the context of wrestling matches. Very rarely delivered promos that built up one guy beating the other, and was never an effective heel for his position on the card. He was always more of a curio than anything else, and his characters always wore thin after the initial excitement. Pretty much every feud he had diminished both himself and the other guy, which was a shame. Maybe he’d have been a better babyface but they never fully committed to a babyface run with him. I hope he’s okay, and I hope he finds something his creative energies are better suited to, whether that’s wrestling somewhere else or some other walk of life. Pretty much my thoughts too. Well said.

It’s insane that both guys in the Summerslam main event last year no longer work for the company. Crazy! You know WWE's bad when I literally can't remember for the life of me what that match was.

Fiend winning the Universal title from Braun after chasing it ever since Mania. Overshadowed by the return and defeat by Head Cheese Roman after *checks calendar* one week.

Bray will absolutely be back once he works through his mental health issues. Release was probably a mutual decision because of them.

I wasn't really a Wyatt fan. But I am just about done in investing in anymore WWE talent. Why should I spend time getting behind someone, buying their merchandise, figures, watching them weekly if they are just going to end up being fired? A massive chunk of the roster has now been gutted. I can't get behind anyone anymore.

In the past they’ve been burned on things like this and have been pretty good about keeping their money makers on contract while they are away getting better.

If you asked me I’d say all this looks like he’s trying to tank his own company before he sails away…but I don’t really think that makes sense either unless he’s HIGHLY vindictive….so on second thought 🤔

I don't watch wwe all the time but I felt like they never knew what to do with that character. Once he lost to Goldberg that was pretty much a wrap.

I've always been a huge Wyatt fan so I'm gutted. I don't usually compare wrestlers but Wyatt was the closest thing we ever had to Kane & Taker which is rare in todays era.
The merchandise he sold was insane so that alone is a huge loss for WWE.

I am not shocked. Alexa Bliss took the character that Bray was doing and has done it 100 times better than Bray. It will be great to see Husky Harris working in AEW though. The Fiend gimmick sucked, the Alexa gimmick also sucks. Both people were better off before either gimmick The Fiend was over as hell and was a merch machine. Also, Alexa's gimmick has made her a focal part of Raw so way better than the generic mean girl character that anyone can play.
