Bray Wyatt hasn’t been seen since Hardy threw him into the Lake of Reincarnation during the Ultimate Deletion nearly a month ago, so his return was quite the surprise. It was even more surprising that he helped Hardy win – but the WWE Universe is totally on board with the turn.
Bray Wyatt as a face has the potential to be massive. Much needed change. #WWE #WrestleMania

A Bray Wyatt/Matt Hardy alignment is something I'm far more happy about than I ever thought I'd be. #WrestleMania

Bray Wyatt with Matt Hardy is a GREAT sight. I hope they pair them for the Tag Team Titles. That could easily resurrect Bray Wyatt’s career #WrestleMania

This was a fantastic twist on WWE’s part. Fans weren’t expecting a lot from the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, as it’s proven to be nothing much more than a time-filler that gives little-used Superstars something to do on the grandest stage of them all. But Wyatt is beloved by fans, and he’s been stifled by terrible booking for a long time. An alliance with Hardy could go a long way to revive his career, and the colorful characters of Woken Matt Hardy and the Eater of Worlds are a natural fit.
The question is: what does this mean for Jeff?
