At WWE Fastlane 2021, Alexa Bliss and Randy Orton took part in an intergender match with vicious consequences. Bliss manipulated The Viper through her surreal magic tricks, and it all led to The Fiend's big return.
As predicted, The Fiend returned to WWE with a new look. However, the execution of the match and the return of Bray Wyatt's alter-ego made it a special moment indeed. Now that The Fiend is officially back on the Road to WrestleMania 37, fans will look forward to the next few episodes of Monday Night RAW.
What do you think will happen in Wyatt's and Orton's saga from this point onward? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
Here are the five biggest questions after The Fiend's return at Fastlane.
#5 How will Randy Orton retaliate before WWE WrestleMania 37?
Alexa Bliss pinned Randy Orton's after the latter got hit by a Sister Abigail at the hands of The Fiend Bray Waytt.
In this supernatural saga, the odds have become increasingly stacked against Orton over the past few weeks. While he faces a nemesis that seems to have magical powers, The Viper doesn't possess any supernatural abilities himself. As a result, Bliss has been in control.
Thanks to The Fiend's comeback, the odds are stacked against Orton even more now. What will The Viper do to gain some kind of advantage ahead of WWE's biggest pay-per-view of the year?
Perhaps Randy Orton's plans may be revealed during the upcoming episode of RAW. Orton will certainly address The Fiend's return, but what can he do to retaliate against his longtime rival?
This WWE feud will most likely end with The Fiend's successful revenge, but Orton might deliver one final blow to Wyatt's alter-ego before WrestleMania.
#4 Will WWE change The Fiend's character?
At WWE Fastlane, The Fiend emerged with a new look that perfectly encapsulated the results of the Firefly Inferno match. The Fiend's appearance conveyed that he had been set on fire at last year's WWE TLC event.
His new look seemed like a mash between popular elements that are seen in classic horror films. Aside from the new outfit, will WWE allow a few other changes to be incorporated into this gimmick?
Could The Fiend make his future entrances with a new or modified theme music? Even though his current theme song is excellent, a change in entrance music will set the tone for the character's recent resurrection.
Also, will The Fiend's mentality change now that he has returned to WWE? The fire couldn't kill him at TLC. And as they all say, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Perhaps Bray Wyatt's alter-ego could become mightier than ever before.
Let's hope that if WWE's higher-ups decide to make some additional changes to The Fiend, those modifications last for a considerable amount of time.
#3 What will the stipulation be for Randy Orton and The Fiend's eventual clash in WWE?
All the signs point to a clash between The Fiend and Randy Orton at WWE WrestleMania 37. Their long-term feud will most likely culminate in a final confrontation at The Grandest Stage of Them All.
However, we have no idea what the stipulation will be. Two months ago, it was reported that WWE had planned a Firefly Fun House match between The Fiend and The Viper at the Royal Rumble. But this rumor did not come to fruition. Could their potential Firefly Fun House match take place at WrestleMania 37 instead?
However, since fans will be in attendance for this year's WrestleMania event, many believe that Wyatt and Orton shouldn't have a cinematic match at The Show of Shows.
Another option would be to incorporate a few cinematic elements in a live setting. Perhaps the two could even face each other in a match with a traditional stipulation mixed with a new idea.
The biggest swerve would be if The Fiend and Randy Orton are booked in a traditional singles match at WrestleMania 37.
#2 Whom will Alexa Bliss feud with in WWE?
After WWE TLC 2020, Alexa Bliss' storyline revolved around torturing Randy Orton during The Fiend's absence.
Now that The Fiend can resume his rivalry with The Viper, Bliss can refocus her priorities on the women's division. Before this year's Royal Rumble pay-per-view, she won against WWE RAW Women's Champion Asuka twice. Bliss could renew her program with Asuka soon.
Meanwhile, Rhea Ripley will arrive at RAW this week. WWE fans haven't forgotten that Ripley eliminated Bliss from the women's Royal Rumble match. So could these two stars feud with each other in the near future?
With just three episodes of RAW remaining to go before WrestleMania, Bliss may just stick to her current storyline with Randy Orton and The Fiend. She has already fulfilled her major role in this bizarre saga, which is why WWE should look to utilize her talents in other storylines soon.
While The Fiend and Alexa Bliss are already reunited, the next slide will take a look at the future of a significant Firefly Fun House personality.
#1 What about Bray Wyatt's Firefly Fun House?
While WWE Fastlane was a delight for fans who wanted The Fiend to return, the future of Bray Wyatt's Firefly Fun House could be in jeopardy.
The Fiend's burn scars and injuries were responsible for his new look. In all these months, The Fiend's jovial counterpart has been absent from television as well. Since the host of the Firefly Fun House represents an optimistic belief, it wouldn't fit him to appear on WWE RAW with ghastly scars all over his body.
Of course, The Fiend's cheerful counterpart could still make appearances if both personalities are truly separate from each other in terms of the storyline.
There is a more exciting alternative to this situation, wherein a brand-new personality could surface to act as a medium between The Fiend and the WWE Universe.
Either way, the Firefly Fun House wouldn't be the same without Bray Wyatt's optimism. How exactly do you think this plot thread will be resolved on WWE RAW?
In the above video, former WWE head writer Vince Russo suggests how WWE could utilize Wyatt as the "three faces of Mick Foley."
