Bray Wyatt says he’ll do pretty much anything in wrestling because he likes to take risks and stand out.
Wyatt returned to the ring at WWE Royal Rumble, where he competed in his first televised match since WrestleMania 37 in 2021. He faced LA Knight in the mysterious Mountain Dew Pitch Black Match. The bout garnered plenty of buzz, as fans didn’t know what to expect, and it turned out to have a distinct presentation due to the usage of neon lights and other elements.
Speaking at the Royal Rumble post-show press conference, Wyatt was asked to share his thoughts on this unique time in wrestling history. He responded by emphasizing that he likes do things that no one else does, as he wants to leave a legacy.
“I think there’s some people that like new concepts, and people who take risks and things, and then there’s people that don’t just because they don’t,” Wyatt said. “It’s a sport to some, and it’s a show to others. But I think the beautiful thing about wrestling and this industry is that there’s something for everyone. I’ve always kind of prided myself on the fact that I’ve been willing to take risks and do things that no one’s ever done.
“Because in my opinion, if you’re not willing to do that, then what are you doing here? It’s about kind of leaving a legacy for me, and I’d do pretty much anything, especially if no one’s ever done it before because I’d know that people would notice it. It’s fun for me.”
Wyatt recently opened up about his WWE release and his return to the company.
