On a recent episode of Arn Anderson’s Podcast, Arn was reviewing the 2016 Fastlane show on Patreon and revealed a storyline that was pitched for Bo Dallas and Bray Wyatt.
Arn had the following to say about the possible storyline that was pitched but never went through in WWE programming:
“Let’s just say, and at that time, I pitched a deal where you brought him in with the Wyatts, and you told him who he was. He was Bray Wyatt’s brother, and he was Mike Rotunda’s son, and you know, do a deal where, let’s just say that Mike came down during one of the Wyatts matches in his capacity as a producer was trying to break up a fight that let’s just say, Big Red and Brodie Lee, they dropped Mike and for the first time you had Bray Wyatt, you know, who, other than join in what was going in with the other two Wyatts, he pulled them off and said, ‘Not him, not him.’ Now you’ve found out that he is the son of Mike Rotunda because I don’t think that it was 100 percent everybody knew that.”
Arn Anderson added that having Bo Dallas in the Wyatt Family as a babyface full of monsters would have been more of a stable launching pad for the WWE star:
“Now you have the Wyatts back off, and Bo introduced like the babyface other brother, who he really is. You put him there with that group, and you’ve got all these monsters with these foot-long beards, and there you’ve got this babyface who is Bray Wyatt’s legitimate brother, and you know, he’s standing over here, and it would just open up different avenues to give the kid a chance to get started and in the mix with top talent. You could have went anywhere with that. Just as an example. I know that’s long-winded, and it was just something that was pitched, but it would have given him a better launching pad than having him run around with a Bolieve sign.”
How interesting could that storyline have been if WWE decided to go through with the idea? Would Bray Wyatt had created “The Fiend”?
