I think everyone can agree on one thing:
It was the best Mountain Dew Pitch Black Match we've ever seen.
I hope it remains this way.
And the worst as well
And also the worst
It was the Mountain Dew Pitch Black Match of all time
It was the shits
I'm more excited to hear Jim review this than I was for the match. It ended and my first thought was "Cornette is going to roast this"
OMG yes. This was garbage
I told my wife last night I couldn't wait to hear Jim's take on this natch, her response was "WHO THE FUDGE IS THAT!?!?!?!" She was asking wtf was going on with this match
Poor poor LA Knight
@@DarkJediJoker legit did nothing wrong, besides getting himself over....and gets buried with working with Wyatt. Wyatt truly is a death sentence to work with.
How can anyone think that was good? They basically killed LA Knight. And for what?
God damn it. Checked out WWE again, saw how obviously talented and charismatic LA Knight was, then had to watch him job out to Husky Harris in a laser tag match sponsored by a soda.
LMAO succinctly put.
Better than everything stupid Cornette has ever said
@@theguerovaquerosaid the clown watching Jim Cornette 🤡
@@thepancakemann said the clown commenting on the comment of the clown watching Jim Cornette. 🤣 🥳🤡
Jim sandbagging his overuse of a dozen or so Spencers Gifts vibrators is now my favorite thing about this Rumble.
Anything that comes out of a Spencer’s bag is over
And Jim watching video's of banging farm animals but some how hey thinks Bray is the crazy one
@@Rhagen87 what???
I popped.
Makes the cuck story even more believable 🤣🤣
He was supposed to be all weird and evil but was sponsored buy mountain dew. 😂
Lmao yup
but mtn dew is weird and evil lol
Corporate sellout.
Wasn’t his idea
not only that but his song does not sell the idea that he's evil and creepy... his old theme song did the job but this new theme sucks
This would've been the perfect match for Jeff Hardy
Make that Willow.
Dude tna Jeff filled on drugs could have had a better match
Or Naomi with the Glow dance
Tbh if the Hardy’s vs E&C did this in the 2000s, it would have been pretty dope lol
I was thinking that the timing of the match was trash but then I realized after having a 71 minute rumble it was the perfect cool down period. The arena was so dark you couldn't see everyone moving around to use the bathroom, get food,etc. 200 IQ timing on the booking right there 💀
Exactly lol. I was in line for Papa Johns and when I came back there was an explosion for some reason
I feel sorry for LA knight
Yeah but having the men's rumble first wasn't the highest iq move to me
@@detmorales9151 Fr
@@clamstrips how was the stadium Papa John's?
I like LA Knight. I hope we see more of him.
YEAH!! 😂 He's gold. I knew he had potential when I first saw him debut in TNA years ago I believe it was in 2016 he debuted in a stable with Drew Galloway (McIntyre)
Feel bad for LA knight what a humiliating way he being used he a joke now 💩
I agree he was good as Eli Drake yeah
@@sniffmoneyArmsAndAmmo I wonder if LA regrets signing to WWE after all the humiliating things he's been made to do in WWE
@@detmorales9151 you are right I think he does regret it....I thought for sure he'd get a push but after this idk where he goes from here....I'm sure his pay is better here but sometimes money isn't everything 🤔
Give LA Knight something good to do after this he carried Bray in this feud
This was no Feud. It was one match
LA Knighr is a star, dude deserves much better than this garbage.
Hell yes.
I want to see him against Rhodes or Reigns.
I'd love to see the Universal title on him. He's an incredible talent, and has earned a shot.
its spelled Fraud - feud is something completely different then what happened here
Sadly, he's probably buried after this shit.
I spent the entire match waiting for Naomi to show up and feel the glow.
At least that would have made the match interesting
@@Hakeem990 would she have? She’s incredibly dull, even with a cool gimmick.
I was waiting for her in the women’s Rumble
@@SchmergDergen No she isn't, you are
@@pilot8220 lol, sounds like the lack of intelligence you’d find in a Naomi fan.
This is where the pyro for Omega’s exploding death match went. It got swapped at the last minute for Spirit Squad sparklers.
The Spirit Squad sparklers would've been appropriate for Uncle Howdy completely missing LA Knight and the cameras failing to hide it
LA knight is trying his hardest to be a Kenny rip off
@@neilsmith9066 lmao wtf how do they even remotely correlate
Jesus christ that ending was bad,this match was worse. And I say this as someone who does not care for aew too much and usually likes brays promos
@@neilsmith9066 Huh? They aren't even close 😂
The fact that Bray Wyatt felt satisfied with that match is terrifying.
of course they are longer than his promos
You can tell he is a mark for his own crap, he must sniff his farts after every lame promo
Him and Seth both hated hell in a cell. Seth came thru the curtain hot….sometimes they are doing what they are told even if they know it’s trash
@@fabianmarshall4120 apart from that Bray often comes up with all the ideas and likes this bullshit the creation of this shit fiend character was also his idea
and his cringe fanboys are satisfied as well, those are the people ruining wrestling
Imagine if the Undertaker held a Monster Energy Buried Alive Match... yeah I didnt think so either
LMFAO
Think of the first ever Inferno match, Kane vs. The Undertaker... with a giant DORITOS sponsor on the ring mat.
Taker drinks a red bull and sprouts wings and flies out of the grave. I’m telling ya the people will love it BRO
@@James-if3kc it was kane VS Undertaker
He'd be revived by monster energy
The way Jim casually slides in the 15 vibrators he burned through from Spencer’s. Lol. Magnificent.
Uncle Howdy = Shockmaster 2.0 😂
the only person coming out of this better than before was pat mcafee. he found a way to take the piss out of this in a way we could all relate, while also not saying anything that would get him into too much trouble with the WWE. when the black lights came on and he said “good thing i changed my pants before this” i lost it.
That uncle howdy miss was pretty funny and embarrasing
Miss? I think he landed on Cena
He was supposed to miss, the cameras just did an awful job at hiding it and the explosions also failed to hide it.
@@wolfspledge1762 i could tell by the way LA night rolled towards the elbow drop that he was supposed to miss
@@rdtbrik1161 Watch another angle. LA Knight rolled because he needed to fall into the hole along with Howdy.
Why would he land on Knight Fr possibly causing injury to himself and knight? God forbid he would get hit in the heart.
He just goes too far into the sci-fi spooky stuff to the point where he's on interviews saying he doesn't know where this story's going. Keep it simple. You're a normal dude who's had a bad childhood and your dark side comes out when you're provoke. Simple. We don't need life size puppets and weird uncles wearing top hats.
It's almost like he believes he's got these crazy good Ideas and forgets that he needs to tell a story too.
Yeah, he's an actual tank who can talk, he could definitely be a fantastic worker, hell could keep the whole Puppet and Howdy and Abigail stuff as long as they're kept in his head as metaphors rather then actual characters. Could even keep the spooky entrence and hell he really fitted that warpaint before the shit ass mask went on.
He is a big guy who moves well in the ring, he could do some stuff, but he is too hung up on selling the spooky shit, now he doesnt sell moves and his matches end in a weird way and due to the nature of wrestling( and the fact that spooky shit is better when there is mystery I guess) we never end up figuring out what is what, this angle could be so much cooler if after the lights went out and you saw the spooky makeup they went back on and Wyatt just was a powerful and agressive big dude, have it be like Balor and The Demon, its not like he is bringing it back anytime soon, just make this guy have NORMAL MATCHES, he makes the gimmick good, but you cant let him get too much creative control on the matches
They are trying to pander to more and more kids, like the 80s and early 90s cartoon character WWF days, the days that almost killed the company.
Kids don't want to see life size puppets, blacklight matches, etc.....
WWE needs to at least go back to a more edgier program, I guarantee you that more people would watch that instead of this cartoonish BS.
he wants to be a horror movie director/star so bad. its like how chris jherico wants to be a rock star above anything else
I feel like Bray wants to be more of a Horror movie director than a wrestler
He's built like Rob Reiner so this makes sense 😭
Yeah I never been a fan of Wyatt. He used to get on my nerves, especially when he would just random pop up during a random rivalry match and ruin the build up to the previous match.
Well then he could suck at 2 jobs.
Clearly his heart is not in the wrestling business, probably got into it because of family tradition and saw it as an output for his "creativity". He should really pursue a different career and work with Rob Zombie or something like that.
Wasn’t his idea
Bray Wyatt is Brian's Kenny Omega
Finally someone else sees it. Extremely over hyped
I thought Jericho was Brian's Omega tbh
@@chico1680 Jericho was good at one point though.
Omega can actually go on the ring. Like his style or not he doesn't rely on spooky bullshit.
@@tinfoilhat3268 so was omega ,hell wyatt too. What the fuck wyatt did with this match, honestly I have no fucking clue
I felt so bad for LA Knight all throughout this whole feud. He deserved better.
Yeah poor LA he a joke now
He sucked in NWA
Back to being mid card fodder. Being jobbed out to the likes Braun Stroman and Bronson Reed.
@@ClintGreasewood don’t diss Bronson, he’s gonna be the Big Van Vader of this generation. Strowman sucks though
la knight is future of wwe. He is gone to carry wwe for next 10 years and he is only 40 years old.
Uncle Howdy 🤠 tried the Macho Man savage elbow lol
OH NO!!!
Wonder why the first upload was taken down?
It was shorter than this one, so I’m not complaining lol
"Not more than a dozen, 15." This is why Jim is the best.
Nah he's outdated corny af,he loves big macho hairy chest with no kneepads,get lost nerd
I think what's most apparent about the match to me, is that they were told prior to it starting to not work or bump on the Mt dew logo and it must be visible at all times.
When sponsorship goes too far
There were multiple logos though. What the f***?
What the fuck. This fucking company.
Vince is like I was right all along.
Vince McMahon has his flaws but he can see a expired wrestler which is Bray wyatt. Hopefully LA knight is put into a main event program
Yeah Wyatt is a joke.
He’s a fat jobber with a cool Tom Savini mask.
@@Hakeem990 Vince is a cancer but even a broken clock is right sometimes
What's funny is now the Wyatt sympathizers are now turning on Triple H for this match sucking. Instead of just acknowledging that Wyatt just flat out sucks
LA Knight Deserves So Much Better
YEAH!!!
Why?
@@joegreene7619 Nonsense he's a main superstar
HHH doesn't know what he's doing in this instance
He hates him for no reason. Ignore him.
I never really followed him much. Seen him in NWA here an there and would toon into the promo. But now, I'm 1000 percent a fan. And I'm sure now at the very least he's made more fans with this then not. YEAH.
I remember a few months ago when Bray Wyatt came back and after his first promo Jim seemed optimistic about it. Well that didn’t last very long.
Yeah bray is so boring. It’s like trying to make a horror movie but it’s rated PG.
I just thought the same thing. At one point, Jim hated it, and Brian wanted to give it a try with Hunter. They eventually flipped, and now they both hate it.
The thing is I feel like the Fiend could have been a really compelling character back in 2019 when it debuted. Yes, Jim would have always hated it, but that first match with Finn Balor, before the red lights, and getting burned alive, etc. set up the Fiend as a dominant but ultimately still mostly normal opponent. THAT was the Bray Wyatt that intrigued me. This is just… complete nonsense.
@@izclop1375 and being buried by goldberg,the retarded hiac shitshow
@@deathmauler181 yeah, it went off the rails almost immediately, although the strap match with Daniel Bryan was another highlight. Mainly because Bryan is such a good in-ring storyteller, but still, it was a highlight.
His original Wyatt Family stuff was good, then It went bad. The Fiend stuff started ok, then went horribly. Same here, some of the lead up was interesting, now it’s tough to watch.
The Fiend was always a garbage character (with Wyatt, anyway).
Should've stuck with Wyatt family.
A couple of buddies and myself got kicked out of a Spencer's gift for laughing at the dildos, the employee said "if you can't take these dildos seriously you'll have to leave the store".
@@James-if3kc how highly?
Take them seriously, as in "maturely"... I don't think he means the guy mean "take them" as in using them. 🤣
@@James-if3kc thing is, that's the way I read it at first, hence why I responded being i assumed u did also.
Then I realized the punchline was that the worker told them to "Take them seriously" rather than "if you can Seriously Take Them!"
😂
As a kid I remember my mom never wanted me to go in Spencer's, yet all I saw noticed were the cool yesr round Halloween masks and random gag stuff (whoopie cushions, etc etc)
Guess I didn't notice the Dildo shelf at that age, but now, I understand why my (pretty lax) mom acted so sus when I'd want to go in there with my older sis.
Now I want to hear the stories of how Jim went through 12-15 Spencer’s Gifts vibrators back in the late 70s to early 80s more than I want to hear about this match!!
@@James-if3kc is Jim gay? I never really thought about if he had a wife or family...
The way he went in depth about the vibrator quality from that era was far from scripted 😶... Also saying "Only at Spencer's when u weren't old enough to go into a fuckin porno store"
@@James-if3kc CORNY'S CORNHOLE
Perfect sponsor. Every time I drink Mountain Dew, I also see pitch black
I had to get pitch black drunk after it lol
@@patshowiedoit5340 🤣
“A German video with subtitles” 😂🤣 i flatlined
I can’t bring myself to listen to a nonsensical rambling bray promo, but since he is apparently invincible and doesn’t want the title, I have one question.
What does the Bray Wyatt character actually want?
I think not knowing is supposedly supposedly mysterious and interesting
To be fired again, hopefully. I was optimistic for his return but it's just been dog shit.
@Syko 🤣
At least with Kane he was a tank with no title aspirations but he wanted to kill his brother who was equally indestructible and a main eventer. Bray seems to just wrestle people at random for little to no clear reason unless you make one up
@@James-if3kc he would have fueded with house of black, and then gone straight into Keith Lee territory.
Was hoping Wyatt would come to AEW after his release. Kinda glad that never happened
same, no room for him on that bloated roster
Lol I love how Bray Wyatt is considered a bridge too far for AEW 😂 Wouldn’t want Bray to show up and ruin the great booking they got going on at AEW
AEW has enough clowns already, they would have to get a sencond car.
You have guys like Orange Cassidy as champions, but y'all are "too good" for Bray Wyatt 😂😂😂.
Could you imagine just how wacky he would’ve gotten there
This wasn’t a pitch black match, it was a Sin Cara match
This makes sin cara look like Bret hart
@@deathmauler181 that’s too far xD
It was Embarrassing I feel bad for LA Knight horrific match.
I felt like Ralphie in a Christmas story
I followed the Bray storyline since Extreme rules. The white rabbit, coordinates, hidden IP addresses, Google map images, cryptic QR codes, real life funhouse friends, Alexa Bliss stalking, Uncle Howdy...etc etc etc. All in anticipation for his return to the ring. Then the day comes day and...
It lead to a match under cosmic bowling lights telling me to drink more ovaltine...I mean Mountain Dew? I think I'm done with Bray
Lmao
I was just saying how much I miss the Bray Wyatt who had the crowd singing "He's got the whole world in his hands" when he wrestled Cena. *That* guy had something special.
THREE MONTHS of buildup for .... this?
I knew it was going to be underwhelming since he started cutting promos for like 5 weeks in a row without doing anything else, and even worse that 5 weeks worth of promo did not even lead to anything significant. This feud between him and LA Knight has been dragged for way too long, any and all heat they built had been washed away.
I like Bray and I think he's creative and overall can be the top dog, but he'll need some adjustments
"Be sure to drink your Ovaltine" lmfao. I feel it. So much build up, so much suspense for a crummy commercial 🤣
I turned to my buddy after this match and said “Cornette is going to destroy this. I can’t wait”
😂
I heard they booked Terry Funk against him, but Funk's horse was sick
Jim's level of not giving a fuck is really admirable lmao he's just openly talking about how many vibrators he's been through 😂
Idk if it was the way the crowd was mic'd, but to me, it sounded like the crowd was completely confused and out of it. Couldn't see anything and the Howdy bumb was ludicrous. Even under that light, you could tell he wasn't anywhere close to hitting him.
I was there it was confusing, it looked like shit, and no one could see
@@trahapace150 what do you expect? its a pitch black match duh
I guess I am the minority here but, I like Bray Wyatt.
You are not in the minority at all. Bray is awesome. In the ring, on the mic and in every one of his storylines.
Also, best theme music in the business right now.
I loved it just wish it lasted longer
I agree. But it was a non title match in between two Royal Rumbles, so I knew it wasn't gonna be that long lol. As long as it doesn't get to the supernatural stuff like in the past, I'm okay with it.
That's what she said.
I loved it too
@@EscobarFurious lol
Vince made the right call cutting him the first time.
The indie movie scene is calling for Windham.
The match was like if Hallmark started trying to make horror film's. This is what it would look like.
Think of all the awesome Evil Doink matches we could have gotten if Matt Borne had the level of creative control that Bray does, Matt could at least unnerve AND work.
I think LA Knight did great with what was handed to him. I don't know what Bray was picturing but surely it wasn't this.
Exactly
One question I've been curious about for a very very long time now is IF* the Undertaker character was debuting in the 2020-2023 era, how would he have fared today? I'm not comparing Bray Wyatt vs Undertaker's wrestling skills. This isnt about the wrestling part, but I hear far too often how Brays Gimmick matches are horrible and I'm curious how wrestling fans would have reacted to Undertaker's Buried Alive Matches, Boiler Room, Casket Match, Armageddon Rules Match, Body Bag Match, Inferno Match, Last Ride match etc today. Would they have reacted the same as they do Bray? We will never know, but I'll always wonder.
Back in the day people like Jim hated on Taker's gimmick too.
Haters gonna hate.
There's a massive difference between Taker and Bray Wyatt. I wouldn't compare the two. I'd also keep in mind that Taker ditched most of his supernatural/horror gimmickry well over a decade ago.
I think Taker would have fared better because his stipulations still fit into the context of wrestling. Buried Alive, HiaC, Coffin Match, they can work as stipulations because they’re very straight forward.
The fuck was the point of this Pitch Black match shit?
@@ArminVanLiberty I think you're missing the point. I'm not comparing their wrestling skills. Undertaker is head and shoulder better than Bray and it's not even close. But I'm talking about when the Undertaker character was first introduced and the Gimmick matches that went along with it, how that would have been received today? Undertaker character debuted in 1990. So we take 1990-2000. Bray Wyatt Character debuted in 2013. So from 2013-2023. In those first 10 years they both had some really bizarre gimmick matches that people forget and I don't think that would have been received well today is all I'm saying. I could be wrong, but he debuted at a time where characters were 90% of the roster. In 2000-2001 Undertaker came back as The American Bad Ass. I doubt Bray Wyatt will change like that lol but just offering some context here.
@@jackdaone6469 yeah but do you remember those other stipulations? Body Bag Match? Last Ride match? The last Ride match was whoever could put the other person in the back of a hearse. It fit the Undertaker character then don't get me wrong, but I think if Undertaker debuted today and didn't exist in the 90s people would have laughed at those other concepts. My point is, I think Brady Wyatt is trying so many different things (mostly misses) and trying to find one that sticks sorta like an Undertaker. That's all.
YESSS. I've been waiting eagerly to hear Jim's comments concerns opinions about this match, I seemed to enjoy but I was pretty high when it happened
The Wrestlecrap website must love Bray Wyatt because he has single-handedly given them a decade worth of content.
7:48 I just want to hear Bray Wyatt said, "I'm Batman!"😂
Yesss, that would be hilarious an cool.
I'm batman.
Or Im Bray Man, Lol 🙂
Wyatt is more about doing segments, promos, and/or cinematics matches than doing actual matches.
This match reminded me of the "Eye for an Eye" match in that both were booked into a corner with their stipulations.
What's absolutely mindblowing is that there's a big team of writers yet there weren't enough people saying "This is a terrible idea"
@@RagingCookie127 The big team of writers is the problem
The match stipulation was silly. It really wasn’t a stipulation either.
It was just Bray showing off his cool effects, the commentator table being broken, the kendo stick, and uncle howdy’s death dive.
That’s it! It was probably hard as hell for people in the actual arena to see what’s happening through the darkness. It doesn’t help for me that Bray breaks his kayfabe, doing a press conference after the event.
Kayfabe has been dead for 10 years for most wrestlers.
@@deathmauler181 I know. I’m just talking specifically for Bray though, cuz his gimmick seemed like something you’d have to be dedicated to like that. Since also he’s conjuring up forces of sorts with Uncle Howdy lol and cuz of his moment with Undertaker during Raw XXX
Just my opinion though, so don’t take it too seriously.
@@deathmauler181 yup. And wrestling is all the worse for it. We all know its fake. Which is why talent being kayfabe as much as humanly possible would make the shows and stories so much better. Helps build the emotion and suspend the disbelief. Its why MJF is so fucking over.
I've been a big Bray defender but this was beyond rotten
Bad is Bad
Confetti? that was glowing MtnDew
Yeah I guess it's a new product. "Mtn. Dew Pitch Black Balls"
whats crazy is the stuff they did after the match ended could've been included in the build up to the finish. Personally, if the build up to Uncle Howdy falling from a platform bit onto LA Knight would have been the finish/ending. I think people would have liked the match more
I was wondering how this match was going to work. I thought it was actually going to be “pitch black” where the wrestlers wrestle in complete darkness.
I think we can agree that it would have been a hell of a lot more entertaining, if it were.
A completely pitch black match would have worked out totally well so that we all wouldn't have been subjected to see this abomination of a match.
if no one saw it - it would have been a better match, atleast they could have lied about it with no witnesses
@John Doe yeah!
A Bray Wyatt match is like watching an episode of “The Twilight Zone”, except it’s just 22 minutes of Rod Sterling talking.
I'd pay to see Rod Serling talk for 22 minutes, at least he makes sense. With Bray, I wouldn't pay a nickel to hear one word from him.
LMFAO 😅🤣
A Rod Sterling monologue would shit on the combined ratings of every active televised wrestling product today tbh 🤣
Rod Serling could read a phone book and it would still be more interesting than Bray Wyatt
Wasn’t his idea
Nothing says supernatural juggernaut like a corporate sponsorship, puppets, children’s tv, and nursery rhymes.
I was waiting for these ... and we get them within a couple days..
Hell yea
When I was a kid Kane was absolutely terrifying. That original costume plus the backstory of him being BURNED as a kid was legit scary and spooky. But it was also in a believable sort of way. That's the difference between Kane and Bray Wyatt.
True but what also helped is that most fans still believed that back then, even older teenagers. Now in today's time, even little kids don't believe in stuff like that now because they have grown smarter to call out fake stuff due to technology
I stepped out for a smoke during Bray's entrance and when I came back the match was over.
man you smoke one cig for a long ass time
@@coldnightmare199 cigarettes are gross
Never thought I'd say this but I'm looking back on how Bray Wyatt's incarnations (Cult Leader, Firefly Funhouse Host, and The Fiend), his earlier runs, how they always started out intriguing but soon meandered and died down in hindsight, believing "Maybe it's the fact that he had total creative control was the problem." Yes, bad booking contributed to the decline but you now have to wonder about Bray's part in his failure to keep the momentum going.
The green confetti was so they could see the table for the spot in the dark. That's the only thing I could logically think of
It was popcorn
Dude I was so interested in Bray’s return…I should’ve known better.
Yeah Wyatt's, howdy and LA biggest FLOP in WWE history
Uncle Howdy (Bo Dallas) and Bray Wyatt are the new Brothers of Destruction
yea they are so horrible its pure destruction
Odd....... wasnt bo that did the jump..
Guy was 150lbs lighter that bo...... but the guy that jumped gave away who it was right before and during jump...
Wow Jim Cornette name drops FFXIV, never thought I’d hear it
I don't know what's scarier... The fact I know what he's talking about cheap vibrators breaking at the base or that hearing Cornette talking about that is as comfortable as talking to my dad about sextoys... 😳
Jim was never a favorite talent of mine in wrestling. But his podcast is the most funny thing and entertaining thing in wrestling.
With Vince, he had good, shorter storylines that ended with him losing and it went nowhere. With HHH, he has long, drawn out storylines that end with him winning and it not going anywhere.
Vince or Hunter don't matter: they both gave this fat hack creative control... Just face it: Bray Wyatt is a selfindulged juggalo who just rips off his favorite crappy horror movie or comic book of the month
Exactly bro 🤣🤣🤣
And people say Vince was problematic
@@cjskylark6659 Bray Wyatt is problematic. A cartoon character who kills people. Dumbest gimmick ever. Everyone who worked with him needed more than a year to recover. Seth went to midcard, Daniel Bryan left, Orton disappeared, Alexa Bliss fell to the complete bottom of the ladder (yet still somehow wants to work again with that clown... She must have the mindset of a 14yearold)
I miss the fiend, not the puppet weird stuff they did to cena years ago, but man I miss the mask, the way the lights and how they made bray look was sick, but they cant do that every match. still I miss the mask and him coming out of nowhere.
Bryatt reminds of the artsy actor type where everything is over the top to cover up the fact hes not a wrestler but rather an artist performer.
Technically 40% of the matches for this card were a Bray Wyatt special. They wasted Bianca’s time with this, but it didn’t affect her nearly as bad as LA Knight.
I don’t wish any bodily harm on Alexa, but, to keep them in the same segments, have her feud with Nia next. Years ago, they had Alexa no-selling Asuka’s stuff. If their interactions aren’t squash matches with the obvious person going over, keep her away from Asuka, Bianca, and Rhea. I’ll even put Raquel in there because she’s coming up.
Bray looked INCREDIBLY AWESOME in his paint under the lights. And HUGE. Like a character in Mad Max: Fury Road. 🙂🙂
Shame he has the same shit match every time for the past 5 years
It would of looked better if only his face paint glowed and nothing else.
I thought he looked like Predator 😂
These 2 are out of touch. It was a cool match.
@@ProspectNY11211 it sucked 😂😂😂😂😆😆😆
The Undertaker once called John Cena an “overachiever”. I imagine he called Bray an “underachiever” during that moment they had on Raw 30. If not; he should have.
The color choices on this thumbnail are amazing
This review of this match was what I knew it would come
This should have been a gimmick match for naiomi. "Feel the glow" match
Am waiting for the latest Botchamania episode, since it's been a good 2 weeks since the last one. And after loosely watching the Pitch Black "match" and listening to Jim and Brian, I get why we're waiting. Next Botch vid will ggeewwdd.
Can’t wait for next year’s *Dr. Pepper Brown Town Match!*
I think this match was a love letter to Disney. They want Disney to Buy them.
This match seemed like something you would see in a WWE Theme Park.
Didnt know Disney was into spooky rave meets ted bundy
I was 100 % unironically expecting Naomi's involvement in this somehow
Im a wyatt fan , but i was dying to hear what jim had to say and i agree with all the above . Lol as soon as he put on the mask and became invincible i thought wow they are fucked now haha . Only way they got rid off the old mask was setting him on fire hahaha.
I can only imagine the audience during this match.They must've been so confused,lol.
Crowd was dead it was horrible maybe even worse live I haven’t watched back on the network but the biggest pop anything brat related that happened in arena was when at end of Alexa shit happening it went straight to Applebees commercial. The commercial got a bigger pop cuase it was at least timed well and funny
Was really hoping the point was to have Uncle Howdy cost Bray the match so L.A. Knight would get a massive win and Bray's spooky nonsense could then be directed to it's own little pocket between him and Howdy.
That's how it should have been done. Have him remove the mask, Bray could be like "Brother?! You know how evil Uncle Howdy was." Bo can be like "I'm worse" and now you have a (more) grounded feud for Mania.
@@AlwaysOnDeck Well accroding to leaks they plan for Mania is Bray vs Howdy, but apparently that because no one wants to work with him
@@AlwaysOnDeck both of these ideas would have elevated everyone, combine this angke would've made the ple even better , imagine if alexa bliss would further the her story gy turnung into her f8refly character, instead of the random flicker of uncle howdy footage
How is Bray gonna lose his redebut match after not wrestling for a year and a half.
Bray needs to just manage Judgment Day or become a Taxman like daddy.
The color scheme on this has me laughing so hard.
At least it was a match and not some pre-recorded short film like many of Bray's previous matches.
As a “Supernatural” character should Wyatt be doing “Press Conferences” he should be focused on doing scary shit should he not?
Whether you like or dislike Bray Wyatt's stuff, it's still one of the top subjects people are talking about.
Yeah because it’s so bad
@@fishin4bass2002 Bray is the best thing in WWE 💯
@@1Packersgamer have you had a drug test recently? Saying he’s better than Sammy and the bloodline? Yeah right… hell even LA knight got over more than bray in this.
@@fishin4bass2002 regardless of your opinion it's still getting discussed
@@paulholloway8885 what does that even mean? If something is being discussed because it’s bad then that’s not good
They owe LA Knight for this one, he has to have banked some good will with the office
5:36 the duck billed platypus? DANA BROOKE?
This match was amazing
Cutting my initial comment in two. I don't why wyatt does this to himself. Could easily be an undertaker type character for today's product. He has the entrance, he can talk and you believe every word he says. He's also not as bad as he people make him out to be in the ring.
I've seen Wyatt be good in the ring....when he feels like it. The problem is he so very rarely seems to feel like it.
I think the gimmick matches are there to conceal that he isn’t a good worker.
I don't feel like I've ever seen Wyatt have a wrestling match. I remember a lot of character performances, but not regular matches.
Taker was huge, Wyatt is just horizontally big
But what commentator can sell Bray as being an Undertaker kind of character to the audience? WWE doesn't have anybody on either Raw or SD that can do that, especially because Bray himself has no idea what kind of character he wants to be.
And another thing, why the fuck are they doing press conferences after events?
According to my aew sources and Chris Jericho, that isn't a crash pad. That was pure concrete
Uncle Howdy hit John Cena with that elbow. Brilliant
