Over the years, there have been many characters or gimmicks that have gripped the WWE Universe. The newest member to that list is Bray Wyatt's sinister persona, The Fiend. From the Firefly Fun House segments to the sporadic appearances from The Fiend, everything about this character seems to be perfect.

The Fiend made his debut against Finn Balor at SummerSlam and it was one of the best debuts ever witnessed by the WWE Universe. After SummerSlam, Bray Wyatt wasn't on the next Raw and SmackDown episodes. This was done by the WWE to keep the fear and the unpredictability around the character alive.

The Fiend returned this week though and attacked another legend, Jerry Lawler. It seems as if Wyatt's dark persona has become some sort of a legend killer. The likes of Mick Foley and Kurt Angle have also faced the wrath of The Fiend.

Now that The Fiend is looking for new prey, in this piece, we take a look at the three Superstars who should be the next in line to feud with him.

#3 Cesaro

Cesaro

Cesaro is one of the most underrated singles performer in the WWE right now. The quality of matches that he puts on with any WWE Superstar on a given day is absolutely brilliant and for a talent like him, not being involved in any feud is criminal.

Now that he is also out of the King of the Ring tournament after losing to Samoa Joe, it seems like WWE doesn't really have any feuds planned for the Swiss Cyborg.

That makes him a perfect target for The Fiend. A Cesaro vs The Fiend program can elevate not only Wyatt's character, but it would also put Cesaro back on the higher mid-card. These two will put on an absolute classic if they come up against each other, although it doesn't seem likely to happen anytime soon.

#2 Aleister Black

Aleister Black

You would have probably guessed that Aleister Black's name would pop up somewhere. The proposition of seeing two of the best wrestlers who love to play mind games with their opponents coming up against each other would bring the WWE Universe off their seats.

WWE can really go anywhere with this feud and the amount of creativity we would get to see on and off the ring would be absolutely mind-blowing. Both Black and Wyatt have dark and mystical gimmicks and just imagine both these Superstars coming out of nowhere in the dark to attack each other!

While WWE would want to protect Black by not making him face one of the hottest characters in the WWE right now, if this feud happens, it would display what Black is all about and maybe he could impress the WWE Universe with his performance.

It's not as if Black is getting too much screen time. In fact, he barely gets any screen time and mostly telling someone to knock on his door and challenge him. WWE needs to get a storyline for Black and a feud against The Fiend would be perfect.

#1 The Miz

The Miz
The Miz

The Miz is just the kind of Superstar The Fiend needs to face as nobody in the entire roster can sell the fear of facing The Fiend better than the A-Lister. The Miz is one of the best if not the best on the mic and he can really hype the monstrosity of The Fiend.

The A-Lister will face Baron Corbin in the King of the Ring tournament next week on Raw and that is when The Fiend could intervene to cost the Miz the match. This would cause a feud between the two leading to a match at the Clash of Champions PPV.

The Miz hasn't been involved in a full-fledged feud for a long time and a proper feud would benefit him. Even though the A-Lister would most probably lose the match against Wyatt, he would really make The Fiend look more dangerous.
