Top 5 WWE Superstars that were sent back to developmental

#2. WWE Superstar Bray Wyatt

Bray Wyatt is one of the most talented individuals in WWE. However, his skills have needed a little sharpening at times.

The former Universal Champion joined WWE's developmental territory, FCW, in 2009. He spent almost a year training before making his debut on the main roster as Husky Harris. Although he joined The Nexus, he could not stand out amongst its members. WWE soon sent him back to FCW for further development.

The former WWE Champion spent another year in FCW, where he made enormous progress. In 2013, he made his second debut on the main roster as Bray Wyatt, the leader of the Wyatt Family, and the rest is history.

The time Wyatt spent at FCW has served him well. He transformed from a lost rookie to one of the most successful superstars of the current generation. He is now a former two-time Universal Champion, WWE Champion, Raw Tag Team Champion and SmackDown tag team Champion.
