Bray Wyatt officially returned to the ring at WWE Royal Rumble, competing in his first match since WrestleMania 37.
Wyatt faced LA Knight in a Mountain Dew Pitch Black match, which was a street fight with glow lighting. Wyatt was victorious, and in the aftermath, Uncle Howdy jumped off a platform and down onto Knight as an explosion went off.
Speaking at the WWE Royal Rumble press conference, Wyatt discussed the general creativity in wrestling happening during the current era.
"There are some people that like new concepts and people who take risks and things, and then there are people who don't just because they don't. It's a sport to some, it's a show to others. The beautiful thing about wrestling and this industry is that there is something for everyone. I've always prided myself on the fact that I'm willing to take risks and do things that no one has ever done. In my opinion, if you're not willing to do that then what are you doing here? It's about leaving a legacy, for me, and I'd do pretty much anything, especially if no one has ever done it before because I know people will notice, and it's fun for me," he said.
Wyatt has often introduced otherworldly elements to his characters and stories, performing under cinematic circumstances and as various alter egos.
