Bray Wyatt just addressed Alexa Bliss for the first time since his return, so we’ll
see what he had to say.
We’ll also check out the latest theories with Bray Wyatt, and the other updates to
his story
So like we’ve been discussing, the story from October to basically the night of Royal
Rumble was all about Bray Wyatt trying to be a changed person, but Uncle Howdy kept
trying to pull him back to his old evil ways
Uncle Howdy spent several months trying to convince Bray Wyatt to go back to how it was,
but when nothing worked and Bray still wasn’t listening to him, that’s when Howdy changed
his approach to a more physical approach and started to attack Bray Wyatt
He figured if his words weren’t doing the trick, maybe actually putting hands on Bray
Wyatt will get the job done
So you stack Uncle Howdy attacking him on top of his on going issues with LA Knight,
and Bray Wyatt finally snapped at the Royal Rumble to reveal what he was holding in this
entire time
And by Bray Wyatt finally giving in to the dark side, as expected, this pleased Uncle
Howdy and made him very happy with Bray once again
That led us to that post match moment at Royal Rumble where Bray and Howdy collaborated for
the first time to take out LA Knight, showing that they’re both back on the same page
and united
That brings us to the February 3rd edition of Smackdown
This edition of Smackdown didn’t give us much of anything for Bray’s story besides
a very quick thirty second segment
Bray is seen sitting backstage in an unknown location before Uncle Howdy comes over to
him and quickly turns his face to the camera to deliver a quick jump-scare to the audience
and that was it
The segment was very short and didn’t reveal much, but it was still shown in a very ambiguous
way that made it possible to have fans taking in the segment in many different ways
You can argue that maybe the moment was meant to reinforce the idea that Bray Wyatt and
Uncle Howdy are working together and have squashed all their previous issues
Or another perspective you can argue is that Howdy still appears to be the superior of
the two
Maybe It’s not really a fifty-fifty collaboration because Bray Wyatt is the one that’s sitting
down and Uncle Howdy is taking that more dominant role by standing over Bray, basically implying
that he got Bray under his full control
So that’s really the two biggest ways to interpret this moment
It’s either a collaboration, or Howdy is now in full control of Bray’s action
If we had to take a guess and lean towards one of those two options, we’ll probably
be leaning more towards the side of Howdy being in full control
Reason being that this is the same exact sort of conversation that Uncle Howdy has been
having with Alexa Bliss
Alexa has been saying that she’s in full control of everything that’s happening around
her, but Uncle Howdy has now reminded her on multiple occasions that she’s not the
one that’s in control
The biggest time that Howdy has reminded Alexa of this was of course at the Royal Rumble
Alexa thinks she can do everything on her own, but after being unsuccessful in that
match, it was Howdy who came up on the screen to confront Alexa and once again talk about
the topic of control
So Howdy is obviously trying to break through the cracks and connect with Alexa Bliss
He probably wants her to see the great success that Bray Wyatt had at Royal Rumble after
he embraced his dark side
Alexa didn’t fully embrace Uncle Howdy and her dark side, so maybe that’s why she was
unsuccessful at Royal Rumble, maybe that’s the idea Howdy is trying to plant in Alexa’s
head
Howdy was basically trying to imply to her that if she just gave in to him and allowed
him to have control, maybe she could’ve been successful at Royal Rumble
But speaking of Alexa Bliss, what’s the status of Bray and Alexa’s reunion?
What’s going on there?
Well the truth there is that no one knows
Alexa and Bray’s reunion was first teased back in November when Alexa first saw the
logo appear during an interview
The logo appeared several more times throughout the following weeks and continued to revert
Alexa Bliss back into her evil persona as time went on
We’ve seen Uncle Howdy pay a visit to Alexa Bliss several times on Raw, but the big question
that remains unanswered is: when are we going to see Alexa and Bray back together?
Everyone assumed that was the point of the Bray Wyatt logo teasers and Howdy being involved
in Alexa’s story, but there’s been no signs of Bray and Alexa actually linking up
Alexa is still on Raw, Bray is still on Smackdown, so that’s another big issue with this link
up, somebody gotta come over to the other brand so that they’ll be an even better
chance of seeing them together
Fans assume that Alexa could come over to Smackdown sometime in the near future and
maybe that’s when we’ll get that big payoff of Alexa and Bray’s reunion
Bray was actually questioned about himself and Alexa during the Royal Rumble press conference
and gave a very, very interesting response, he had this to say about Alexa Bliss, quote:
“Me and Alexa are just kind of connected forever no matter what.
It’s just kind of the way it’s gone.
And where it leads I don’t know, no one knows.
But I feel like there will be something at some point and it will be memorable, I’m
sure of that”.
End quote
So just your typical Bray Wyatt response, but he did give us just a little to work with
He says that their past is what has them pretty much linked together forever
So you could look at that as the explanation for why Howdy is coming after Alexa, she just
has that link to Bray Wyatt, so he’s after her for the same reasons
Bray says that he doesn’t know what’s next for him and Alexa, but he also teased
that he’s sure there will be another memorable moment between the two of them down the line
So that’s as close we’re gonna get to Bray Wyatt basically confirming that the reunion
with Alexa Bliss is on the way
The next biggest question there is how exactly will it happen because that will be another
big moment in both of their stories
The first time around, Bray captured Alexa to use her as leverage for his feud with Braun
Strowman, but they were both intrigued with each other and their relationship grew
The Fiend isn’t coming back, so he’s not an option to convince Alexa to join them again
And considering that Alexa already has a rocky relationship with Howdy going on, it looks
like Bray Wyatt really is the only one that Alexa can trust and will be the one to bring
her back into the fold
It goes back to the theory of Howdy being in control.
If he sees that Alexa isn’t listening to him, he can now use Bray Wyatt to go over
there and finish off the recruitment of Alexa Bliss
And then once that happens, maybe we do get that memorable moment with will be Bray Wyatt
and Alexa Bliss’ actual reunion itself, which could be Bray bringing Alexa over to
Smackdown
There also are a few light rumors and theories surrounding Liv Morgan
Extreme Rules and the first few weeks after Extreme Rules was interesting for Liv Morgan
because it appeared that she was going through a similar transition to Alexa’s 2020 character
change
Liv was acting all dark and evil, Bray Wyatt’s logo was appearing in all of her segments,
but suddenly all of that was dropped and Liv went back to acting normal again
So it’ll be interesting to see if they do revisit those Liv and Bray teasers and see
if Alexa and Liv could be reunited as a tag team while both being under Howdy and Bray’s
control
So Bray’s story is definitely not fast paced at all at the moment, it’s very slow moving,
but it continues to be intriguing and mysterious
We’ll have to see if Alexa Bliss, Liv Morgan, and others do end up joining Bray Wyatt now
that he’s under the control of Uncle Howdy
