The Undertaker Comments on Being Hopeful WWE Goes Back to Original Bray Wyatt Character

Metro held a recent interview with WWE Hall of Famer The Undertaker. One of the topics discussed included The Undertaker’s thoughts on Bray Wyatt’s work in WWE and being hopeful that WWE will go back to Wyatt’s original character.

“They need to back Bray’s character up to the original character, get away from – they’ve kind of got themselves booked into a situation where it’s kind of difficult for him to have matches. I think the original Wyatt Family Bray, that’s the money. I got to work with Bray at ‘Mania the year after I got concussed in the Brock match. I worked with Bray – I think a lot of him, and I like what he’s doing. I think they just have to figure out how to… they need to back it up I think. His promos, and then his ability to work – he’s an incredible, incredible worker but he’s not getting the opportunity to do it. I hope the best for him, I really do think a lot of him. We’ll see what happens there.”
