So last week, we could a promo on the Wyatt focused solely on Harper. And damn near everyone was screaming that it was a sign of Harper push. From fans to dirtsheets. But now we just had a promo focused solely on Rowan. It ended w/ the eerie message of "It's Coming."
So now that Rowan was the spotlight this week, where is this all heading? I have no idea, but it doesn't seem as if the group is breaking up.
Edit: Although just rewatched, Bray mentioned how he fixed both and is setting them free in both promos. So really, I have no idea what is going right now, lol. Could go in a lot of different directions with these promos.
Im still a little scared it COULD be a split up but my first guess was theyre showing us their back stories (a year later fpalm) so they can re build what they fucked up. And the whole theyre set free thing means theyre set loose on the WWE to terrorize it??
Idk but The Wyatt promos have been the best thing on RAW so far...
I don't know what to make of it at the moment but those vignettes are just amazing. I hope this isn't just going to be another "End of the world" thing like they did with Jericho and overhype it with no real follow up or irrelevant climax.
I don't think it's a repackage. They'll still be Erick Rowan, Luke Harper, Bray Wyatt as the Wyatt Family. It seems like they're going to give them more substance to their characters. It's working so far, I'm beyond interested, and I know all those pops those vignettes are getting the viewing audience is liking it too.
Whether they split up or they have one more strong run as a faction, I just hope they have a direction for all of them. None of this "oh a factiobn/tag team, lets break them up and have them feud with each other" and it leads to ultimately nothing.
These three guys are special, and can do so much for the product. Just do it right WWE, please.
Meh, imagine if they put the tag titles on Rowan and Harper when they were having amazing matches with the Uso's. Or have Bray look strong against Cena like he did against Bryan.
If a push happens it will probably last a few weeks till they get ruined again.
I'm ready to just let this play out and see where it goes. The video packages have been amazing and I'm interested to see what is going on with the group. Should be fun to watch.
Bray said that he was setting them free, so it might mean that they're going to either push Rowan and Harper as a team or they're going to push them as single wrestlers.
What I'm hoping for is a grand "re-introduction." Keep Bray the same, But have Harper and Rowan in altered attires (give Rowan a new mask and things like that). Really establish themselves as a force again.
For the past few months, the booking has been so lazy the Wyatts. Part of what made Harper and Rowan's matches special was having Bray at ringside. And they got rid of that. They should be a separate entity. Harper and Rowan shouldn't be lumberjacks. Bray shouldn't associate himself w/ other people outside of his cult unless for good reason.
Bring back their solidarity. And if you can do that, maybe even expand the Family. They need to be reestablished as a force again. There are a lot of wholes on the shows these days and a reestablished Wyatt Family would help fill those holes.
No more cult leader crap, just let them be fully fledged supernatural characters once and for all, like they should be. Bray Wyatt's entire character is a demonically possessed preacher, so let him play that up.
They're is a balance that needs to be reached though. Too much super naturalness will just look hokey. Bray, as he has bee portrayed to me, is a backwoods cult leader. I would like to see more of him how he was in the early promos. Preaching to big groups in the woods. They had a supernatural feel without being overbearing.
I agree though that I would like to see a more deomonic side of the Wyatt Family and even expand the family. Just don't go overboard with it. I don't see Undertaker Ministry level of super naturalness.
They need to have them all go after gold.... have Harper and Rowan go after Stardust and Golddust for the tag straps, that would be a great feud... and have Wyatt either go for the IC or the World title...
speaking of the dust brothers, here are 2 strange characters who went after the tag titles by refering to them as "the cosmic key" - simply have Bray serve notice that "Abigail told him the way to power is to control all that they hold dear.... and in the land of the sheep they crave gold... we are coming for all your gold..."
I doubt the WWE even knows where they're going right now. They're just trying to keep them relevant for now since they have no plans.
I'm glad to see the Rowan promo as it's clear now that they aren't actually just splitting Harper away from the group. The 'It's Coming' on the pregnant stomach though almost makes me think there's going to be a new Wyatt Family member debut. No idea what else they're doing right now.
Back story's is what I was hoping for after the Harper vignette and seems what we are getting. They even gave Erick Rowan the traits I suggested in the Harper thread. I know Harper may be the jewel, but Rowan deserves a shot too, and they should remain a stable under Bray. Singles, tags, 6 man tags. Please don't screw it up.
So Ive been watching a lot of the Wyatt Family's promos and matches...Especially during their feud with the Shield :banderas
And just watched both, Harper and Rowen vignettes again and I just dont understand the whole back story a year later? They were both fucking amazing, but I have no idea what direction they're going. He could be setting them free and unleashing their wrath (reboot), or is he really setting them free from the family!? But then there was the whole "Its coming" on a pregnant chick...
PLEASE give this stable another chance and book them how they should! Like fucking psychopathic monsters, with a diabolical leader. Dont split em up and lose em in the shuffle! :cuss:
So happy that Rowan got a separate promo, always marked for the guy, it was more creepy than Harper's, the visuals were insane, excited, hope Rowan gets a good push as well, that promo was promising and he actually did very well with his little monologue.
I think Rowan should get a modified attire, switch the Sheep mask to a Goat mask.
I too marked for the Rowan vignette, it felt good to know that they aren't completely giving up on him. People expect him to fall by the wayside but I think with a AE Kane-like gimmick and wrestling mask a mobile giant with stamina that works safely has a lot of value.
It can't be a repackaging, same names, same theme, same motives, same music etc. I dunno what it is, I am very intrigued, they have fucked them up once and doing it again will kill the Wyatts the WWE better do something right for once.
Well, it all depends on how they're booked, the vignettes looked great but it all comes down to how they'll be booked.
