Bray Wyatt... a cryptic and rambling WWE character whose real-life creator of the gimmick has the mind of a genius. Of long-form storytelling. Yet... always misused by top brass. Originally coming in as a generic big guy named "Husky Harris", he was on the verge of being fired. Either lose weight and get stronger... or go on your way. That's what he was told. So he became Bray Wyatt, a guy living in the swamps with his "Family", the Wyatts and "Sister Abigail" as his guide. She was never on TV, despite speculation she would be eventually. No, she has yet as of this writing to ever be seen in-person except in an empty rocking chair that's rocking... but is that seeing someone? Not really. Though I suppose, currently, there is "Abby the witch", a puppet of his... we'll get to that.
Our dear Bray Wyatt was still misused by top brass, and managed to have a very short title reign where... they did nothing with him. And he just dropped the title and disappeared for a while. The "Wyatt Family" was plagued by the members taking turns being constantly injured. One would get better, the other would be hurt. A trio isn't so effective when they're constantly a duo placed into three-on-three storylines... so eventually, the "Family" broke up. But a couple years before the "family" broke up, we get a story time. Story time... with Bray Wyatt. But this story... it's curious. It's 4 years old now, and you can see it for yourself here:
What's strangest about this "story time" is... there's something off. Our dear Bray has this... creativity. This idea for characters. Characters in a universe of his own, and he tells the story so well. It goes into a bit of Sister Abigail, and "The Man in the Woods".
But there's also something off. His mannerisms... and the descriptions he gave of "The Man in the Woods"
"He had no pigment in his skin. He was as pale as a pearl. He had thin yellow hairs running all the way down to his knees." "...His eyes were yellow, like a cat."
But that's not all. Towards the end, you can see some mannerisms... putting both hands to his ears for just a moment...
Fast forward to a year and a half ago. He goes against an enigmatic and absolutely insane Matt Hardy, known as "Woken" Matt Hardy in something called the Ultimate Deletion.
It's much more cinematic than a usual wrestling match, and in the end... Bray Wyatt is DELETED!!! He is thrown into the "Lake of Reincarnation", and Sister Abigail's control over him seems to have dissipated. Bray makes sporadic appearances, but eventually... just isn't seen anymore.
Bray Wyatt goes missing for a long time. People expect him to be fired or to leave WWE. But hardcore fans... they knew better. And so they followed his Twitter. Every once in a while, he would post messages that seem like he's in an asylum, getting help. A record of his time there, speaking of his progress. He would delete it shortly after. He gave hints, but he was very cryptic in classic Bray Wyatt fashion.
Shockingly, we get random videos. Creepy ones, ones that would make you think "THAT'S BRAY! HE'S COMING BACK, AND THIS IS CREEPY STUFF!"
Then, we hear... "We're really glad that you're our friend! And this is a friendship that'll never ever end!" and we see "FIREFLY FUNHOUSE" on our screen. WHAT?! And our host for the Funhouse is... BRAY WYATT! The characters are "Abby the Witch", "Mercy the Buzzard", "Ramblin' Rabbit", and "Huskus the Pigboy". After a very, VERY strange episode of a twisted Blues Clues featuring a chainsaw, we get a riddle, and we were to hunt down the answer. Bray hid secret messages in 8 of his promos. Non-sequitrs he intentionally placed for people to notice, but nobody ever delved very deep. He did have a habit of... RAMBLING, after all.
The solution is:
"What makes you smile?
I know you’re listening.
Let me in!
We don’t belong here.
What happened to you was such a tragedy.
Limbo is no place for a soul like yours.
I believe I found the answer.
The angel with the burnt wings is waving you on home."
"Let me in" is a phrase that we now know as ominous...
Why?
Watch the Firefly Funhouse episodes here:
This isn't our swampy boy! Something's different. There's something there. Without the leash of Sister Abigail, and the Lake of Reincarnation bringing out the "REAL" Bray Wyatt... this wild dog has been unleashed. He's not rehabilitated at all. He says he can control it, but this monster is prowling. This monster is lurking. This monster wants in.
Let Him In.
Hope you liked storytime with Lani. Figured I'd give some videos to watch, and some context on who The Fiend is instead of just posting the SUPER AMAZING song.
Oh, and quick note... Bray Wyatt went to a professional Hollywood Effects guy, and the same guy who makes Slipknot's masks. And uhh... The Fiend carries a realistic-looking replica of Bray Wyatt's head as a lantern to the ring, so I kinda went with just the music and not the entrance itself. Not that I could post his entrance anyway, Youtube takes it down for violent content because it's so realistic. Hope ya don't mind me sparing the severed head lantern portion of The Fiend's persona. Yeah, this guy's a twisted genius, and it has horror movie villain vibes.
