5 ways Bray Wyatt could change the landscape of Monday Night Raw

Bray Wyatt returned at WWE Starrcade, and was involved in a match with the acting Raw General Manager, Baron Corbin. 'The Eater Of Worlds' has been out of action since his tag team partner, Matt Hardy, moved out of in-ring competition due to a back injury that needed time to heal.

In a video posted by Matt Hardy back in the day, he had stated that he is taking time off and started working as a television producer. It was around this time Bray Wyatt appeared on two separate occasions in singles competition, before he decided to move out of weekly shows.

In a first after a long time, the leader of 'The Wyatt Family' made a surprise return in a match against the current acting Raw General Manager Baron Corbin. Bray secured a win against the current authority figure, but it is unclear if he will show up on Monday Night.

If he does decide to show up, we could be in for something amazing this week, but it would be great if he is a regular feature, and here are 5 ways he could be utilised on the show.


#5 Feud with Baron Corbin

Baron Corbin got into two matches with Bray Wyatt, but was on the receiving end of two straight losses at the hands of the returning wrestler. In an attempt to take out his frustrations on him, he could put him into powerful matches on Raw which could include a handicap match against Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley.

After their attempt to take out 'The Eater Of Worlds', we may see him take out the associates of the acting Raw General Manager using his powers. This would also set the stage for a Baron Corbin versus Bray Wyatt match in the near future.

#4 Team with Finn Balor

Finn Balor and Bray Wyatt haven't seen each other eye to eye, but now with Bray Wyatt without his tag team partner, and Finn Balor struggling to make his way back to the main event scene, it would be great if the company decides to pair these two performers together.

While this would be a quick decision, they would be great contenders for the coveted tag team titles, which have seen a decline due to being given to irrelevant teams or not enough storylines in the tag team division. The two phenomenal performers know how to pull off a storyline and perform to the best of their potential, which would give fans moments to enjoy.

If they win the tag team titles on the flagship show on Monday Night, the ratings for the show and segment would be off the roof.

#3 A match with Drew McIntyre to be the #1 contender for the Universal Championship

Braun Strowman is out of action due to a savage attack by Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley last week on Raw. The attack gave The Monster devastating injuries, and in an attempt to seek revenge for the former Wyatt Family member, Bray Wyatt could challenge the new heel faction.

After the same happens, we may see Drew McIntyre answer the challenge, and in an attempt to hype up the match, we could see these two fight in the ring for the #1 contender spot for Brock Lesnar's Universal Championship. After a series of blindside attacks, these two could fight inside the steel cage at TLC to be the worthy contender for the Universal title.

'The Beast Incarnate' hasn't faced anyone like Bray Wyatt for the title, while he did fight The Undertaker, it was a non-title match. This feud would intrigue fans, and we may see the fans tune in every week to see the build-up to this match at Royal Rumble.

#2 Create a new Wyatt Family

As the image clearly suggests, Bray Wyatt is all alone in The Wyatt Family, and needs some members to complete the group. The once dominant faction has broken, as two members - Erick Rowan and Luke Harper, moved to SmackDown Live and are currently not in action, while another member, Braun Strowman, became the breakout star for the family and WWE.

He is the star WWE needs, but since he is also out of action like his fellow former Wyatt family brethren, it is about time Bray Wyatt creates another dominant team on the red brand, and it is a possibility that this faction would be the saviour of the red brand's tag team division which has been going down.

We need some intense competition on Raw, and it is possible this faction could give us just that.

#1 Put deserving performers over

Deserving push!
Deserving push!

Lars Sullivan is a powerful performer, and recently there were promos of the top NXT star making a transition from the yellow brand to the red brand. As he is destined to get a push, we may see him get into a feud with Bray Wyatt.

It is possible that the powerful performer will fight the master of mind games, and when it would look like we have seen the best from these two wrestlers, these two would put on a classic which would be remembered by all. This would lead to some mainstream media coverage, and also make Lars Sullivan better in the process.

A feud between them could culminate at WrestleMania, which would be 'best for business'.
