Bray Wyatt might be done with WWE, but that doesn't mean he is done with professional wrestling. He has enough name value to warrant outside interest, and the most obvious answer is AEW.

Wyatt in All Elite Wrestling seems like an interesting possibility. He isn't like most conventional superstars and was always a more character-driven wrestler than an in-ring one.

While that formula is tried, tested and works, the idea of The Fiend being in AEW doesn't seem to fit. Either way, Dave Meltzer of WON explained that the Runnels (Rhodes) and Mulligan's close family connections could lead to Bray Wyatt getting a job in AEW after his WWE release.

''The question becomes the landing point. His name value is such that most companies would have an interest in him. The character that he used in WWE wouldn’t fit well with AEW, but that isn’t to say they couldn’t modify it in some form. He’s a contemporary of Cody Rhodes, since the Rhodes and Mulligan family were close for decades,'' said Dave Meltzer.

We hope this is true because Wyatt could become a big star in All Elite Wrestling and strengthen their roster greatly. While AEW has several phenomenal in-ring talents, they need more character-driven superstars - and Bray Wyatt has value in that.
