#5 What Bray Wyatt did to focus on his character

Bray Wyatt's Fiend gimmick has captured the imagination of the WWE Universe, and it seems that he has put in a lot of work to make the character appealing and different, and shock the audience.

He went in deep into the gimmick, with Braun Strowman revealing in the Notsam Wrestling Podcast the extent that Wyatt went to make the character work.

"Bray is one of my closest friends inside and outside of the business. It's great to have him back. He got in a pretty weird place for a while with what was going on character-wise, and he literally went into the drawing board and started from scratch.

"We went for a while without even talking because he went so deep into this character; he shut himself out from the world. I remember watching the very first episode of the Firefly Funhouse and was thinking, 'What the hell is this? Bray, what are you doing?' But the more I watched, I couldn't turn away from it. It was so intriguing what he was doing, and then they brought 'The Fiend' out and I was like, 'Alright, it's unbelievable." (H/T WrestlingInc)
