Seth Rollins kicked off RAW and started talking about the events of last night. As he recapped the incidents and got to the part where the Fiend attacked him, the crowd chanted 'Yowie Wowie'. Bray Wyatt appeared on the Titantron as the arena went dark. While Bray was talking, his stuffed animals told Rollins to run.
Rollins stayed in the ring and Bray spoke about forgiveness but mentioned that 'he' never forgets. He teased another appearance from the Fiend later in the night before laughing it off and saying goodbye to Seth. The title cards for the upcoming matches were upside down and we couldn't tell if it was Bray messing with us or a production mistake.
