Bray Wyatt
The Rotunda family member first arrived on the main roster as an NXT call up back in 2010 as part of the Nexus faction. Back then he used to be known as Husky Harris. Under that characteristics, people barely thought themselves to have achieved success. Three years later, WWE completely rechristened him as the leader of the Wyatt Family, Bray Wyatt.
As the then tagline said, Wyatt literally had the “whole world in his hand.” His popularity, merchandise selling, and capability of moving merchandise gradually led the WWE fans to compare him with none other than The Undertaker. Despite getting buried by other contemporaries, time and time again, the former WWE Champion’s charisma is still significant to the fans and we can only imagine how good of a use he could be in the future on WWE’s mainstay TV with more colorful characters.
