So the big moment finally happened, we finally got The Fiend’s big WWE return and a look
at his new appearance
But before we get into that, let’s go over the match from start to finish because there
were also some new things going on with Alexa Bliss, we’ll also go over the situation
with Randy Orton’s wife and Alexa Bliss as well
So Randy Orton is out first and his entrance is interrupted after he started coughing up
the same black liquid that we’ve been seeing over the last few weeks
It’s still not clear quite yet on what the liquid actually represents, but it does appear
that it’s coming from Alexa Bliss
Especially given the fact that it’s been happening over the last few weeks where there
was no Fiend and just Alexa, so it’s a high possibility that Alexa is the one behind the
coughing of the black liquid
But besides the actual fiend’s return, Alexa Bliss’ appearance was quite different and
new as well, it was sort of swept under the rug by some fans, but take a closer look at
Alexa Bliss
Not only was she using another new remixed and chopped up theme song, she had a new look
herself as well
Could we label this as Alexa’s 4th persona?
Well so far, she has the Funhouse Alexa, Fiend Alexa, and Goddess Alexa,
But this Fastlane version of Alexa Bliss was sort of a cross between Funhouse Alexa and
Fiend Alexa, a little balanced mix of both personalities it seemed like
She had on the signature purple shirt from her usual funhouse persona, but notice that
the overall that she was wearing wasn’t the funhouse overall, she was wearing the
overall that belonged to her Fiend persona
So not only did the personas seem mixed together, Alexa’s outfits from both personas were
literally combined and mixed together
Not only that, but her face as well, it seemed like she had this Harley Quinn sort of makeup
going on.
Very pale face and extremely dark around the eyes, which is of course not how she usually
comes out in the firefly funhouse persona
So even though The Fiend stole the show with his new look, Alexa had her own new look as
well
Now getting into the match, we see a perfect example of what fans have been saying and
that’s the fact that Alexa might have more abilities and powers then Bray Wyatt
We’ve seen Bray and The Fiend pull of some crazy things over the past few years but he
was never capable of some of the things Alexa did in this match alone
Randy approaches alexa’s corner and a massive wave of fire comes out of the corner
Or the even bigger moment of when Alexa dropped the stage lights by only using her head, that
is just some insane supernatural abilities that not even her mentor has, so it’s very
interesting
It all goes back to that theory, could Alexa Bliss be getting too powerful?
Where’s all these abilities coming from and why isn’t Bray Wyatt capable of some
of the things Alexa is doing as well?
It’s all great questions to ask and would make for a great storyline as well, just to
see the origins of where all these abilities came from
But Alexa takes Randy Orton back into the ring and that’s when we get to the fiend’s
return
We see his hand come up from the ring, his old glove and arm is all burnt and he’s
trying to grab Orton’s leg
We see smoke come out of the hold in the ring followed by a big burst of flames and The
Fiend finally emerges after being gone for 91 days
First thing that you’ll noticed is The Fiend’s new mask.
You still see parts of the original mask, but his face been burnt so badly that it’s
all torn up and even scarier than he was before
He also has a new ring gear suit and his hair is a little different as well
So the return was great, it was nice to see them still stick to the theme of fire.
One of the most popular theories for the fiend’s return was that he would come back using fire,
which was the same thing that originally took him out and that turned out to be true
He came right out of the fire from underneath the ring
His mask looks perfect, the burning of the mask, all the details basically fits the description
that everyone wanted to see
As far as his ring gear, it’s not like he had on a burnt version of his old ring gear,
it’s clearly a new attire which looks great and goes perfectly with his mask, but will
we get an explanation on where it came from and where he’s been at this whole time?
We’ll have to see
The small plot hole that has been bothering me these last few months is Bray Wyatt, why
did he had to leave for 3 months as well?
Bray Wyatt spent the better part of 2 years explaining to the audience that the fiend
and himself are two different people
Well it feels like WWE missed the opportunity to prove that was true.
If Bray Wyatt showed up unharmed on raw the night after TLC then that really would’ve
been a mind blowing moment and possibly validate Bray’s claim that the fiend and himself
are two separate people
But the fact that Bray disappeared when The Fiend did makes Bray Wyatt look like a liar
and that him and the fiend are in fact the same person
But now there is a dilemma because The Fiend is now back, so does that mean Bray Wyatt
has been brought back to life too?
Does ordinary Bray Wyatt appear unharmed from the fire, or does he return in a changed way
as well
We see it all the time in several movies and TV shows, when characters are brought back
to life, there’s always warnings that they won’t be their usual self when your bring
them back and that they will be much different
We already know that’s true for The Fiend, Alexa brought him back, but it’s clear that
he’s no longer the same fiend that he was before
So does this same idea apply to Bray Wyatt?
Does he come back changed in a big way as well or will he just pick up from where left
off at in the firefly funhouse?
It just feels like Bray Wyatt should get a grand return like the fiend, if WWE just magically
pops up with a new firefly funhouse with Bray Wyatt like nothing happened that will be really
weird
It just feels like we need an explanation and big return for Bray Wyatt the same way
that we got a big return for The Fiend
All these plot holes about Bray’s disappearance could be covered up and resolved depending
on what Bray says to explain his whereabouts over the last few months
Like we mentioned before, if Bray says he was with The Fiend or anything like that,
it really feels like that’s going to hurt the whole idea of Bray and The Fiend being
two separate people, so WWE does have to be careful there when explaining why Bray Wyatt
has been gone for so long
If Bray Wyatt has burnt marks or anything like that on his ordinary self, that will
also hurt the idea of Bray and The Fiend being two separate people, so you just have to be
extremely careful with that stuff in terms of the protecting the story and characters
————————-
In other news, but still related to Alexa Bliss vs Randy Orton, Alexa picked up the
win by sitting on top of Randy Orton for the pin
This led many people to tag Randy Orton’s wife in pictures of the pin-fall and closing
moments of the match
Kim Orton actually responded to the pin-fall on twitter by tagging Alexa Bliss and saying
that she ‘messed’ up, but Kim used a much stronger word than ‘messed’
The pinfall was the talk of twitter with everyone joking about an Alexa vs Kim Orton match
But that pinfall just fits Alexa’s character better, it doesn’t really fit for that sort
of character to lean over orton and hook his leg, it just fits the character more for her
to just sit on him for the cover
But it was still the talk of the twitter and obviously on the mind of Kim Orton as well
What are your thoughts on The Fiend’s WWE return at fastlane and Kim Orton calling out
Alexa Bliss?
