Bray Wyatt Vs. Dean Ambrose At Survivor Series: Final Preview

After looking like this might be something major at Hell in a Cell, this feud has really lost that heat. The feud between Bray Wyatt and Dean Ambrose is still the second biggest feud going on right now. These guys have unique characters. Promos could have been better, but that is more because of direction of the storyline than the promo skills of these two. The match should be entertaining.

Who wins? The WWE has not developed this feud well enough to make me give a damn about who wins. I don't feel like the outcome of this match really matters. All that being said, I'll go with Ambrose.

Does this feud continue after Survivor Series? I think it does. This feud can lead to something more than this. There is not much time between Survivor Series and TLC, so that further suggests that the WWE will just continue this feud to a more violent encounter next month. That is something to look forward to. In terms of storyline, however, what is there to look forward to? It would be nice if this was more than just a grudge feud. Dean Ambrose beats the hell out of Bray Wyatt out of revenge, then moves on. Make it more interesting than that. Let me just bring up one possibility. It seems Bray Wyatt will not be getting back his two henchmen. One of them even turned face. Unless some swerve happens or the WWE revisits the stable in the future, it is done. Why not finally have Bray Wyatt succeed in brainwashing someone to his side? Let Ambrose be the first member of a new "Wyatt Family" stable. Will the fans ruin it? If the WWE does it in a way that makes it seem they are screwing Dean Ambrose, this might turn out like Daniel Bryan. This isn't really screwing anyone. It would help Bray Wyatt look good and give Ambrose something to do.

When The Shield broke up, I felt Dean Ambrose would be the one least likely to get an A+ career. With all the depth issues and the fact that he was connecting well with the fans, I was hoping they would still push him very well. In relation to everything else going on, they are still pushing him well, but it is still pretty poor in general. That is an indicator of how bad a lot of other things must be right now. Ambrose can lose his momentum with this feud. I don't even see this as the WWE trying to bury him. They just cannot do better.

Is Bray Wyatt the Wyatt least likely to succeed? I have seen some fans bring that up. I wouldn't go that far. But he has lost his stable. And those two are involved in a PPV main event, while Wyatt is involved in a feud that is essentially easing Ambrose out of his previous main-event feud. If they want to make this feud really mean something for Bray Wyatt and keep him relevant, they have to improve the storyline. I cannot picture his former henchmen becoming legitimate A-tier players, but I can picture all of them eventually remaining B+ players.
