#1: Randy Orton immolates The Fiend at WWE TLC in the first-ever Firefly Inferno Match
Trending
Given the history between Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton, the WWE Universe has been demanding a feud between the two, especially after Wyatt introduced his alter ego, The Fiend. To add more intrigue, WWE announced a Firefly Inferno Match stipulation for their match at TLC. The "Firefly" aspect of it left the fans confused and made them believe that the bout would feature a few elements similar to that of the Firefly Fun House match.
The absence of Alexa Bliss, who was an integral part of the feud and was frequently teased to make an appearance alongside The Fiend, did hurt the continuity heading into the TLC match. Despite all that, the Firefly Inferno match was a really fun affair, and it turned out to be an excellent match from a visual standpoint.
The way the Firefly Inferno Match panned out between Randy Orton and The Fiend may have now set a benchmark for what an Inferno match should be.
From a booking standpoint, The Fiend may have lost to The Viper, but there is a lot more to it than what appears to be on the surface. Movie monsters often go through situations that may kill a normal person, but they often return as seemingly indestructible forces in the long run.
The Fiend was set on fire by Randy Orton in a manner that would certainly be classified as straight-up murder in the normal world. But this storyline has been rooted in the fictional world, unlike any other WWE storyline in recent memory.
Even though Wyatt's alter-ego may have been "killed" at WWE TLC, the character will probably return as an even stronger force - in a somewhat repackaged form - after a considerable period of time. Life is a circle, and Randy Orton's sins at TLC may come to haunt him back in 2021.
