It's incredible to think that a four-month build to The Fiend-Randy Orton match at WrestleMania ended in less than six minutes. This was The Fiend's big return to the ring, and he shredded the "burned" look for his old one - indicating that he had been restored, somehow.

While there was no explanation for that, things only got more bizarre. Alexa Bliss suddenly emerged with a new look and went on to cost Bray Wyatt the match. There were more questions after this match than there were answers - which is the opposite of what a WrestleMania match should do.

Either way, Randy Orton pinned The Fiend with a single RKO and quickly escaped, seemingly putting all of this mess behind him. Alexa Bliss and The Fiend stared each other down post-match, and they both vanished. It seemed to indicate a shift in power, but this was a big opportunity - not only to re-establish The Fiend as a legitimate threat but to give him his revenge against Randy Orton from WrestleMania 33 in 2017.

WWE did the opposite, and now The Fiend character might be damaged. The three-time World Champion might just have to undergo another character change, which is a shame since he seemed to invest so much in 'The Fiend' character.
