When Bray Wyatt ruined WWE's best feud 9 years ago by attacking top babyface

Bray Wyatt has appeared unannounced during WWE matches on several occasions during his career. The Eater of Worlds once ruined a top star’s momentum by interfering in his match nine years ago. The star is none other than former WWE star Dean Ambrose.

Bray Wyatt attacked Dean Ambrose during his Hell in a Cell match against Seth Rollins at the namesake pay-per-view event on October 26, 2014. Ambrose was on the verge of winning the match, but Wyatt’s interference cost him his win against Rollins.

The Wyatt Family patriarch used his lantern to cause a distraction for the former Shield star. Wyatt then took out Ambrose with a Uranage Slam, allowing Rollins to pin his former tag team partner for the win.

Ambrose versus Rollins was the hottest feud in WWE at the time, and fans didn’t like Vince McMahon’s decision to insert Bray Wyatt into the storyline. Wyatt’s interference forced the former United States Champion to shift his attention from Rollins to The Fiend.

The two would battle on weekly television, house shows, and pay-per-view events for the next several months until Wyatt turned his attention towards The Undertaker for a largely forgettable match at WrestleMania 31.

Bray Wyatt is rumored to return at WWE SummerSlam

While Aftab’s favorite wrestler in AEW is Hangman Adam Page, he doesn’t have a favorite in WWE yet. However, he considers Stone Cold Steve Austin to be the greatest professional wrestler of all time. His earliest memory of watching pro wrestling was when The Rock faced The New Age Outlaws in a handicap match, but it was the John Cena vs. Edge match from Unforgiven 2006 that got him hooked. If given the chance to manage a star from the Attitude Era, he would choose The British Bulldog, as he believes Davey Boy Smith was a terrific worker and could've benefitted from having a mouthpiece for his lack of mic skills.

When not watching pro wrestling, Aftab enjoys reading science fiction and watching anime.
