Proposed member for the rumored Bray Wyatt-inspired faction hits the performance center to plot his WWE return after 4 years: Reports

A while ago, it was reported that former Wyatt Family member Erick Rowan had re-signed with WWE. And yesterday, PWInsider noted that he was down in Orlando at the Performance Center. Following up on it, Fightful Select has now revealed that Rowan was indeed at the cutting-edge facility to train for his WWE return. It couldn’t be more obvious that the 42-year-old is back to honor the legacy of the late Bray Wyatt.

Erick’s also been internally listed as one of the five names currently planned by WWE to debut a new faction, and that would be a nod to the impact Bray’s had on this industry. Other names proposed for the cause are Bo Dallas, Dexter Lumis, Joe Gacy, and Nikki Cross. There’s no word on when the faction will eventually debut on television. However, the recent QR code flashes are all but an omen of things about to come.

WWE has once again intrigued their fanbase to a level that’s reminiscent of the White Rabbit teases that eventually led to Bray Wyatt’s return in 2022. If Triple H and his men could emulate that feat once again, it would be a sight to behold. The aforementioned names that are tentatively pegged to be a part of the entire thing could be the vivacious incarnations of those eerie figures Bray had in the Firefly Funhouse.

Until it’s done, it’s all speculation. But as much as there is a majority of fans who can’t wait for the rumored faction to debut, not everyone is as willing. There’s a concern that the act would run out of steam within weeks of its inception, as there’s no Windham Rotunda to turn it around.

Is Alexa Bliss snubbed out of the rumored Bray Wyatt-inspired faction?

As seen above, Alexa Bliss was not included in the list of planned names for the yet-to-debut stable. And as soon as it happened, the fans expressed severe disappointment, as they so dearly hoped that she’d reprise her witchy persona.

Amidst the palpable ado, Little Miss Bliss seemingly addressed those concerns through a post made on X, where she simply asked the fans to just wait. Back in March, Bliss claimed that working with Bray Wyatt was the favorite phase of her WWE career.

And when The Eater of Worlds unfortunately passed away, the former Women’s Champion was in shambles, just like everyone else was. But, out of them, Alexa was probably the one who worked closely with Wyatt since after he debuted The Fiend.
