Bray Wyatt is a 1993 Fox body Mustang with the 2.3l 4-cylinder engine. He's everything wrong with the 'New Generation' - he sucks. meh, nice try. Bray is own in his world. The Bucks & friends are in their own lane.

Bray is not a new generation problem. It is a character problem. As a character based wrestler, he cannot be lackluster in the ring, and have a bad character. Good character could cover his ring issues, but he cannot suck at both and expect fans to care.

I should have been clearer, given the date of the particular Mustang I referenced, I was referring to Bray Wyatt's silly character being much more at home during the 'new generation' of the early 1990s.

Disruption is doing something out of the ordinary that if it works will change a product. Big right now in tech businesses. Some guys are trying off the wall gimmicks hoping to find that new gimmick that no one thought of that will blow the wrestling industry open. Bray thinks this mystery horror stuff could be disrupting for wrestling. It is not. Now I understand, gotcha. Snarky comments aside, I do get that impression that Bray is trying to revolutionise pro-wrestling, but as you say it's not working at all. The closest he got to doing something really different and really good was the Cena match, but I don't think you can build a product around that type of match. That's a once in a career type of match.

On the ' disruption ' gimmick - I'll throw a challenge out there to come up with the most out of the box idea you'd think might actually work.

Rumour is that Brock turned down a match with Wyatt, I honestly don’t blame him if true.
He isn’t going to act scared of Uncle Howdy or any of the other goofy stuff, so would just make Wyatt look weak.

Just something absolutely cartoony but presented as deadly serious. Bray doesn't have Quack's mind for creativity, c, He makes Vince Russo looks like a genius. The segment on Raw was terrible for 90% of indy wrestling. Let alone, WWE.

I had completely forgotten about the white rabbit angle.
Question is, how do you fix Wyatt? Just straight up " nWo in WWE " style and just drop it in favour of something different, or rework the character slowly?

The best thing to come from Bray’s return so far is WWE realizing what kind of commodity they have with LA Knight. I’m so glad they got him far away from Bray since the Rumble. He’s been a major bright spot on Smackdown.

Best way to fix Bray now is take him off TV for a PPV cycle, then reintroduce him with a different gimmick.

In walks a clean shaven Bray Wyatt.
" Hi, I'm Brad, Bray's younger brother.. Brad, Brad Wyatt. "

Only way to salvage him IMO is return just as the fiend, no firefly fun house, split personalities..uncle howdy and all of those gimmicks.
He should be used like The Undertaker was.
Lashley has an open challenge at Summerslam and here comes The Fiend, so we finally get their cancelled match from Mania.
The Fiend just absolutely obliterates him. Keep him well away from any championships unless he is going to have a long run and he can just reside in the upper mid card like McIntyre and Corbin have in the past.

I think Bray has no creativity left in his bones! Please prove me wrong, Wyatt!
