the bray wyatt style of promos are just bad, if you want to be cryptic that's alright but you can't just say a bunch of schizobabble and hope people pretend its good. It needs to be a promo in two layers where it has a meaning when heard for the first time but if you really look into it, there's a hidden meaning that people can make up a bunch of theories about and post it on social media. Kross does it sort of but he's starving for approval so he confirms it all when people find out. They need a really good writer for something like that.

They murdered people in their debut, and it was never capitalised on.

HHH can't book and they didn't learn from Bray's crap. Still cutting nonsensical promos. The first two vignettes with Bo and Rowan were great cause they were actually about something. Was all downhill from there. The shitty long feuds they have don't help at all

Bray was a shitter and easily the worst champion in the company's history, but was immortalized due to an early death like other overrated shitters like mac miller, amy winehouse and kurt cobain

Repeatedly shelved and returned
No high stakes matches
Done nothing but face jobber tag teams for over a year

Absolutely dog shit booking. Say what you want about spookslop but they could have done something with it by now Loads of people seem to be getting booked like this. It's like the Black Mirror episode Fifteen Million Merits. Someone debuts or returns to big fan fare, loads of hype and production gimmicks, and instead of actually writing a story around it, it becomes just a brand and a gimmick for that person that you're somehow supposed to still care about.
>here come the Wyatts to do their spooky Wyatt stuff!
>oh yeah, and then what?
>what do you mean "then what"? they come out and do their spooky Wyatt stuff, that's it .

Nakamura has been the same recently. Drew is another one and perhaps the best simile for the Black Mirror episode. Gets over doing his smark bait work shoot promos, then they say "hey that's good, that thing you do with the smarky promos, just come out and do that every week" instead of actually booking him in any storylines or having him win anything.

Bray sucked in the ring and never had a good match, all of his "characters" were just an excuse for him not to sell and claim he had to go over. Despite his "muh character" shit the only good scamdemic era cinematic match he had was with Cena and was only good because of Cena. He got stale af with his fiend shit and needed to be carried by Lexi Dimes. None of that need to be continued. The Wyatt Six only worked as a big production to close the Netflix show but there was no way of following it up because it's wrestling not a fucking horror series.

they didn't bother to write a real storyline for the return
relegated to one of the worst tag divisions in wrestling history
the name sucks. there's 5 of them
the bray wyatt shine/sympathy has worn off
they aren't spooky, scary or cool

Mac Miller is a weird one because he was a total mid-carder when he was alive but because he died young people herald him as this legendary figure.
Cobain actually made good music and had an interesting gimmick though so I'm not giving you that one.
