Bray Wyatt Planned To Form New WWE Faction; Members Revealed

Bray Wyatt nearly created a new faction in WWE before his tragic passing.

The former Universal Champion was initially part of Nexus when he debuted on the main roster in 2010. His first faction experience did not end well, as he was sent back to developmental.

In 2012, Wyatt returned to the main roster as the leader of another group, The Wyatt Family. This time, it was a huge success. After the disbanding of the faction a few years later, the WWE legend debuted the gimmick of The Fiend, aligning with Alexa Bliss.

In a recent interview with Denise Salcedo, former WWE star Scarlett Bordeaux revealed that Bray Wyatt once planned to form a cross-brand faction with her and her husband, Karrion Kross, that ultimately never materialized.

NXT made me feel like this is going to be huge. I remember everything felt like it was going so well. We became friends with Bray Wyatt, and he wanted to have a group with us, and that was a whole thing where there was going to be different groups on different brands. There was this idea for all of us to have, like, different groups on different brands, but together as, like, basically one faction. [36:51 onwards]

Dark Alexa Bliss Has Retired From WWE

Alexa Bliss’ dark character was a key part of Bray Wyatt’s Firefly Fun House. However, the former Women’s Tag Team Champion recently announced that she has retired the gimmick.

In a Cameo video sent to a fan, the SmackDown star explained that she made that decision out of respect to Bray Wyatt and the rest of the Wyatts.

About Dark Alexa. Look, while I love that it meant something to you, it meant so much to me as well. That chapter is very special and very close tied with my time with Bray, so out of respect to him and the Wyatts, I like to keep that version of myself exactly where it is. And for the time, it is retired and untouchable, but I can still be with it.

On hard days, remember that even the strongest versions of ourselves are built through the darker moments. You’re allowed to feel it, but don’t let it stay there.
