The Wyatt Family: Their Here.


On the 7th of November 2013, after months of warnings that they “were coming” The WWE universe saw the debut of three indefinable men; The Wyatt family. Consisting of Bray Wyatt, and his followers Luke Harper and Erick Rowan, they are one of the most intriguing, abnormal and most importantly spiritual factions to debut in the WWE. These three unorthodox men have clearly followed the buzzards right into sports entertainment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HzXIyma3_w 

The promos leading up to the debut of this heel faction sparked only questions and suspense amongst the WWE universe. Fans were filled with high expectations over what these men could bring into the squared circle and in my opinion, we have not been let down yet. From demolishing monsters like Kane to entire tag teams like 3MB, the Wyatt's have made nothing less then a devastating impact. The frightful trail of bodies already left by these men has only begun; with new victims falling every week, it is clear that no one in the locker room, big or small, is safe from their wrath.

However the Wyatt's are more then just a tag team, these three men are symbolic of a backwoods cult, those who strive in the element of mother nature and solitude amongst themselves and those they consider 'part of the family' . At a combined weight of 865 pounds, it is without surprise that the Wyatt's have been able to easily manhandle their targets. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8Y7KepTYWA

Their potential for a push and long term storyline is extraordinary, WWE really has been given a chance to revive the tag team division through a heated rival that could go either way. The best part of this is that the foundation for it is slowly being built every week on RAW. With The Shield currently holding the tag team titles, we could be led into a back and forth rivalry where the two teams compete in six man tag team matches, normal tag matches and singles competition. This could seemingly result in a win-win situation for both the fans and the company, with both teams being prominent, dominant and overwhelming. The cries for the revival of quality tag teaming wrestling that WWE once prided itself on delivering, may soon be answered.

After less then a month on live television, this cult has created a real buzz for themselves. We have only seen a taste of what the Wyatt's are capable of, from their cryptic messages (@BrayWyatt), to unexpected assaults on superstars, the WWE audience is in for many great moments to come. What happens down the line for these three men is highly anticipated and could dramatically change the landscape of WWE in late 2013 and early 2014.
