5 things Bray Wyatt saying goodbye during RAW could mean

RAW was an interesting episode and you can read my take on it here. But while RAW was happening, yet another story was setting the internet on fire. Bray Wyatt cleared out all his old Tweets and put up three cryptic ones. As is often the case with the Superstar, the meaning is not obvious.

It is certainly a matter of concern if this is not a work. But considering just how creative Bray Wyatt is, it does feel like a storyline development. At the same time, this could always be a hint at a real life development as well.

I can only put my thinking hat on and speculate about what Bray Wyatt is saying in the pages that follow. Let me know if you agree or disagree in the comments below.

As I am sure all of you are as well, I'm hoping this is merely a work and nothing more!

#5 Retirement from wrestling

Let's hope and pray this is not the case at all

Bray Wyatt has been one of the most loyal WWE superstars for quite some time now. He works the full schedule and brings his unique character to audiences around the world. In fact, I have had the fortune of watching him in action twice at Live Events in India.

The toll of the road does take a strain on you and therefore, I'm guessing that Wyatt has bumps and bruises from along the way. One of the meanings of the series of Tweets could be that the injuries have caught up with him and he has to hang his boots up for good. This is obviously the very worst of the possibilities.

Let's hope that this is not the case and the Tweets allude to a brand new character. Now that sounds interesting.

#4 Moving out of WWE

Wyatt could be a top player for another promotion

Let's consider Matt Hardy as an example to make this point. Hardy, a man Wyatt teamed up with in the recent past, reinvented himself during his time in Impact Wrestling, to create the 'Broken' Universe. It became so over that for the first time in his career, he became more over than his brother. And then he arrived in WWE with the said gimmick.

Except in WWE, the gimmick was seriously watered down and diluted. We all know how creative Bray Wyatt is and he may face the same restrictions that Matt Hardy did. Moving to another promotion could let him unleash his creativity and let it flourish.

We saw how Cody managed to reinvent himself outside the WWE and Wyatt, a man who's slipped down the ranks may choose to also do so. It's a definite possibility.

#3 A brand new gimmick on RAW

Now, this sounds like a far more positive possibility than the ones I've outlined

Bray Wyatt's gimmick felt tired and dreary towards the end of his previous RAW run. He was speaking in riddles, not making sense for weeks on end. His feud with Finn Balor did not get the payoff match that everyone had wanted. He did not even morph into Sister Abigail, as was once believed.

It may be time for a complete reset for his character. Maybe Wyatt returns without a supernatural gimmick this time around. Maybe he just plays a tough guy who wants his spot, much like The Undertaker's biker gimmick, a few years into his career.

A fresh start for Wyatt isn't necessarily a bad thing. He could even dress up as the Taxman, as his father did.

It would be an interesting change of pace for him.

#2 Becoming Husky Harris once again

Maybe Wyatt is going back to one of his old gimmicks

Wyatt has said time and again that he did not feel the Husky Harris character. But then, maybe it's time to return to his old shell, so as to shake things up on RAW quite significantly. There's always the possibility that he's leading the new pool of NXT talent to RAW.

In doing so, he could form the new Nexus. And it makes a lot more sense for Husky Harris from the Nexus to lead the group, than for Bray Wyatt. This is the only storyline payoff that would justify him returning to the Husky Harris character once again.

Could Husky Harris become an even bigger character with this invasion angle than Bray Wyatt had become? I personally cannot see it, but as Vince McMahon keeps mentioning, it's always good to shake things up on WWE television.

#1 A worked shoot

This could all be part of some grand master plan

Bray Wyatt may tease the fact that he's being released from the company or that he's retiring as part of a storyline. We know that he is cleared to compete owing from the fact that he wrestled at WWE Starrcade. He hasn't been on television since. Something massive may be in the works for the Eater of Worlds soon.

This may have to do with the McMahon family promising the WWE Universe that he'll give them what they want. This could be a creative storyline that mixes a work with a shoot. While it gets the audience curious about what's next for Wyatt, it could all be part of his big return plans.

Ultimately, I think the mere fact that the posts haven't been taken down alludes to the fact that it's a work. And there's nothing to be concerned about.

I can't wait to see Bray Wyatt return!
