Wrestling World Reacts To Bray Wyatt’s WWE Release (And They Aren’t Happy)

Can you blame them? There are a lot of wrestling promotions in the world outside of WWE but thanks to the power of social media, it can be easy to hear from a lot of them. That is the case when something either good or bad happens and it often can include some rather interesting opinions. The same thing took place again this weekend after WWE made a big change.

This weekend, WWE released Bray Wyatt, reportedly due to more budget cuts for the company. The move came out of nowhere and surprised quite a few people, as Wyatt, a former three time World Champion, was dropped from the roster in a hurry. You do not see changes like that take place every day and as you might expect, a lot of wrestling personalities have weighed in on the situation.

Since Wyatt has been released, wrestling personalities have offered their opinions on Twitter. This includes current and former WWE stars, including Alexa Bliss, who worked with Wyatt in his most recent television run. The majority of the comments praise Wyatt’s abilities and seem stunned at his release. There is no word on where Wyatt is expected to wrestle next.

I think what you meant to say was: “Thank you so much for coming up with such an incredible gimmick(time & time again)one so cool & over, we really didn’t know how to book it right. So we just gave it to someone else so we can still make ALL the money off of it & let you go”????? ? https://t.co/rWVtbxOioA

Wyatt had some pretty special matches. Check out some of his moments:

FULL MATCH - Finn Bálor vs. "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt: SummerSlam 2019

Braun Strowman vs. Bray Wyatt – Universal Championship Match: WWE Money in the Bank, May 10, 2020

FULL MATCH - “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt vs Daniel Bryan – Universal Title Strap Match: Royal Rumble 2020

Opinion: This is one of those things that is just hard to fathom, as Wyatt seemed like someone who would be around for a very long time due to his insane amount of creativity. Assuming he wants to, Wyatt is going to be back someone on the big stage and get the chance to show WWE what they are missing. I’m curious to see where that is, because he is too good to be out of action for that long.

What do you think of Wyatt? Where will he go next? Let us know in the comments below.
