Will someone finally get revenge on The Fiend?

It's no secret that The Fiend has been on a rampage over the last couple of months and he has stockpiled quite a list of victims as well. Interestingly enough though, none of his victims have come back looking for revenge, which begs the question: will any of the victims be coming for him now that he's the champion?

Maybe it wouldn't be one of his former victims at all. WWE legends like The Undertaker or Sting could return to put the supernatural character in check. Either way, WWE has a lot of options when it comes to how to get the Universal Title away from Wyatt without hurting him, and that in itself calls into question how long his reign will last.

Think about this: it felt like WWE was making it clear that they didn't necessarily want Wyatt as champion when Seth Rollins walked out with the belt at Hell in a Cell. Furthermore, It was only after immense fan backlash and The Firefly Fun House being burnt down that the company seemed to feel like Wyatt was a viable option as champion.

In the end, this might not be how WWE wants things to go and could just be trying to appease fans in the short term. The question is how long it last and how the company gets out of it.
