WWE Rumors: Secret way Bray Wyatt is choosing which Superstar to attack revealed

What's the story?

When Bray Wyatt attacked Finn Balor, everyone assumed it would start a programme between the two with the pair facing off at SummerSlam. Whilst that was proven to be the case on SmackDown when Firefly Funhouse returned to interrupt Finn Balor, the waters were muddied somewhat by Wyatt's seemingly random attack of WWE Legend Mick Foley on the Raw Reunion show.

But those that are paying attention might have discovered that there's some method behind 'The Fiend's' madness.

In case you didn't know...

Bray Wyatt's return was signposted by a series of well received vignettes showing Wyatt as a reformed children's television host, working with a bunch of creepy puppets and seemingly repressing elements of his previous cult-leader gimmick and introducing a new sinister 'Fiend' character.

The vignettes finished and the WWE Universe was left wondering when we'd see this new Bray Wyatt return to in-ring action and that question was answered when he shocked everyone the day after Extreme Rules and attacked Finn Balor.

The heart of the matter

So how does Bray Wyatt decide whether or not he's going to attack someone? Well, the answer seems to be in this Firefly Funhouse video. Pay close attention to the gloves and what Wyatt does with them.

Did you get it? Take a look again at the videos above of Wyatt's attack on Finn Balor and Wyatt's attack on Mick Foley and you'll notice that Wyatt seems to be 'listening to his hands'.

Caught this in the TL last night, and it may have been obvious to some of you already, but Bray is "listening" to his hands (or just simply signaling his decision to the fans) and deciding whether he should "Hurt" or "Heal." Foley and Balor obviously didn't get so lucky. #SDLive pic.twitter.com/bogz2MBNwE

As Wrestling Inc mentioned in the tweet, this would have been obvious to a lot of you, but it's a detail worth mentioning and presents an interesting facet to Wyatt's gimmick, as we could see 'The Fiend' choose not to hurt someone.

What's next?

On SmackDown Live 'The Fiend' announced that he's accepting Balor's challenge to a match at SummerSlam by bringing back Firefly Funhouse. Will Wyatt choose to 'hurt' or 'heal' Balor? We'll have to wait and see.
