Many people expected Bray Wyatt’s return to WWE, but WWE Senior Vice President of Live Events “Road Dogg” Brian James claims he had no idea it was going to happen.
Wyatt made his return at the end of WWE Extreme Rules, and Road Dogg admits on the latest episode of his Oh… You Didn’t Know? podcast that he had no idea the former Fiend would be returning.
“It was done so well and it just a visual roller coaster ride. I am not in that, those inner circles anymore that talk about creative, so I honestly did not know he was coming back. I love it. I love not knowing.”
He continued, “There is something very liberating about being ignorant … Not knowing everything is cool sometimes, because then you get surprised and so, I think that’s the age old argument about spoilers.”
Wyatt’s return was teased via the “White Rabbit” QR codes, and he finally made a return at the end of Extreme Rules.
He has since appeared on SmackDown, and despite his latest promo in which he said he was going to do “horrible things,” he is reportedly the top babyface on the brand internally, just ahead of Drew McIntyre.
