Bray Wyatt was just invited to his first post WWE match, we’ll see what’s the story
there.
We’ll also take a look at the WWE superstar who just resigned, Bobby Lashley’s partner,
and much more
Let’s start things off with this invitation for Bray Wyatt, what is that all about?
Well this all started thanks to former WWE Superstar, Braun Strowman
Strowman has a big tag team match coming up at an indie show that features familiar faces
such as Erick Rowan, Enzo, and Bully Ray
It’s already a mini Wyatt Family reunion with Strowman and Rowan, but it appears that
Strowman wants to extend the reunion even more with Bray
While speaking with Control Your Narrative, Strowman took some time to speak out and invite
Bray Wyatt to come down for the match
Strowman mentioned how Eric Rowan and the rest of the wrestling universe would love
to see him
And that’s all completely true, everyone automatically assumed that Bray would show
up in a wrestling ring as soon as his 90 days was up, but that didn’t happen at all
There’s been no wrestling appearances, not even a single interview from him, so it’s
safe to assume that his movie project has his full undivided attention right now
But like Braun said, the entire wrestling universe would definitely love to see him
Outside of some tweets every here and there, we’ve heard very little from Bray Wyatt
over these last few months
He is scheduled for a wrestling con event later this year though, so maybe he’ll say
a few things during that appearance, but until then, things will probably continue to be
quiet
So Braun offered the invite to the match to Bray, but will he actually take it?
Well you can never say never, but in this specific situation, it looks like it’s very
unlikely he’ll show up at some random event like this unannounced
Bray’s name is still absolute star power and box office, so if he does plan to make
a wrestling appearance, it’ll likely be something that’s huge
But that’s what latest on Bray Wyatt for the time being, hopefully we do get some sort
of appearance from him sometime this year

Roman Reigns is indirectly responsible for one WWE superstar staying with WWE
This superstar in question is Sami Zayn
Sami was coming up towards the end of his WWE contract and you already know how hot
of a topic that is in current day
If your contract is expiring, everyone wants to know where you’re going next, what’s
your next move gonna be, and all of those other details
And for a second there, everyone was unsure if Sami was going to stay or not
Kevin Owens’ contract was expiring around the same time and considering how close those
two are, fans wondered if they would influence each other’s decisions as well
Kevin Owens confirmed that he was staying in WWE and now Sami Zayn has officially confirmed
that he is staying as well
He had this to say on twitter:
“Sticking around and having fun, that’s the Sami Zayn way”
Reports claim that what really convinced Sami Zayn to stay in WWE was his recent usage and
storylines
Sami Zayn had a lot of stories going on all at once for a while there
He became the number one contender for the universal title, had a short story with Roman
Reigns, had a story there with Brock Lesnar, and became highly featured on Smackdown
So reports claim that all of those big stories with guys like Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar
played a role in convincing Sami to stay with WWE
Of course for WWE fans, you gotta be thrilled about the Sami Zayn re-signing
Not only is he amazing on the mic and in the ring, but he can also bring the fire with
some highly bizarre and entertaining non-wrestling segments as well, so just a great overall
talent from every single aspect
Sami Zayn is still being highly featured, he’s now in the Intercontinental championship
scene, so we’ll see what’s next there for Sami and if he’ll continue to be featured
like this

The Hurt Business was no doubt one of the brightest points in WWE during the pandemic
era
MVP was scouting around and made Lashley leave Lana in order to get more serious and he made
Benjamin and Cedric come along as well
The group was highly successful as a unit… that was until Lashley won the WWE title
After Lashley won the WWE title, the faction was immediately split up with poor storytelling
and no real explanation besides a little argument
Reports claimed that the reason they split was because WWE wanted Lashley to stand out
on his own as champion, they didn’t want a group of guys all around him, which is understandable,
but you could’ve done a bit more with a better breakup story that actually made sense
Strangely enough, The Hurt Business reunited on Raw during the late summer of 2021, but
once again with no explanation, poor storytelling, and it was just completely directionless
That was a real weak reunion and never really went anywhere and like we saw recently on
Raw, they officially split again after Lashley took out Cedric and Benjamin
So that group has been on and off nonstop for over a year now, so who knows what the
future holds for that faction
But MVP recently spoke with Corey Graves on After The Bell and revealed even more Hurt
Business plans that fell through the cracks
MVP had this to say:
“Behind the scenes, I was actually talking to Bianca Belair a little bit about potentially
adding her to an organization, a little faction that I used to be part of, because there was
lots of people talking about, ‘Hey, you need a woman in the group.’
And there was some discussions with Bianca Belair, but things went a different way.”
End quote
So just very interesting to hear about what could’ve been
It looks like MVP was serious about bringing in Bianca Belair to stand alongside Bobby
Lashley and rest of the Hurt Business, he even talked to her about it, but for whatever
reason it just didn’t work out
And it’s funny because this was a popular fan theory as well.
Fans really wanted to see a woman get added to The Hurt Business
When Naomi was out on hiatus, fans thought bringing her back through The Hurt Business
would’ve been a perfect return for her
Fans even wanted to see a woman get added to The Bloodline as well, like MVP said, there
were a lot of people campaigning for some women to be added to these factions most likely
because of how much it would help them
If you’re not the Four Horsewomen, if you’re not one of those highly established stars
in the women’s division, TV time and proper usage may be a hard thing to come by in WWE
So by whatever women joining these factions, it would’ve given them a better platform
and more opportunity to get noticed and makes things happen for themselves
So it’s unfortunate that the women were never added to the groups, but on the plus
side, the two main candidates for the role, Naomi and Bianca Belair, are still doing phenomenal
in current day
Bianca Belair is still a threat to the Raw women’s title and Naomi still has a massive
program going on with Sonya Deville, so hopefully their usage continues to be great
