Report: WWE has reportedly revealed Bray Wyatt’s WrestleMania status
WWE recently teased Bray Wyatt on an episode of SmackDown amidst reports that he might be down with an illness. This has thrown everything "up in the air" according to Dave Meltzer.

There have been some doubts surrounding Bray Wyatt’s WrestleMania plans and his health as of late. Now, a recent report and WWE programming have added some interesting rumours about his plans as well.
Dave Meltzer recently appeared on TSN Radio’s Sunday Night’s Main Event, where he talked about Bray Wyatt. Meltzer said, “He’s ill. He was supposed to be at the show Friday and he was not so he’s still ill. They did do a quick tease of him so he’s not gone from the company. When I asked this week if he was going to be wrestling Bobby Lashley at WrestleMania, I did not get an answer and they did not promote that match on either show at all.”
The “tease” that Meltzer mentioned was during a backstage segment on Friday Night SmackDown. Eagle-eyed viewers might have noticed that Bray Wyatt’s new logo was behind LA Knight when he was roaming backstage after his loss. This tease has put some rumours to bed about Bray falling out with WWE’s creative and leaving.
However, as Meltzer notes, there is no definitive answer right now from WWE regarding the Bray Wyatt vs. Bobby Lashley match at WrestleMania. The WON journalist implies that this is because there is no clarification within the company itself. “I was not given an answer so my gut is that it’s up in the air,” Meltzer said in the podcast.

Bobby Lashley vs Bray Wyatt match dropped from WrestleMania 39?
Bray Wyatt’s last live appearance on WWE TV was before the Elimination Chamber event on SmackDown. On that show, The Eater of Worlds challenged the winner of the Bobby Lashley vs. Brock Lesnar match. The fans got to see the former cult leader virtually on Raw a few weeks ago, where he sent a “Muscle Man” video for the All-Mighty. Recently, as Meltzer said, the company has dropped all mentions of the rivalry from their shows. Though, Bobby Lashley recently took to Twitter to address his WrestleMania plans.
The All-Mighty threw down the gauntlet for anyone willing to challenge him at the Grandest Stage of Them All. However, there doesn’t seem to be anything planned immediately for the former WWE Champion, as he went missing along with Bray for the past couple of shows. If Wyatt fails to recover by the time of WrestleMania, the WWE Universe will have to wait to see if Bobby Lashley will meet the same fate as well or if he will get a short feud with another challenger.
