Wrestling legend Kevin Nash recently shared his thoughts on a variety of topics during an episode of his popular podcast, Kliq This. One of the subjects he discussed was the late Bray Wyatt and Nash’s belief that WWE missed an opportunity to elevate Wyatt’s career at WrestleMania 31.
Nash expressed his opinion that Wyatt should have defeated The Undertaker in their singles match at the event. He felt that Wyatt’s unique and believable gimmick made him the perfect candidate to go over The Undertaker and solidify his status as a top star.
“He was on a different plane… they were so different,” Nash said. “It was a believable gimmick, and the thing was, and I will say it to the day I die – if you weren’t gonna put over Bray at WrestleMania against The Undertaker… I was at that show, and it was time. He was the chosen one, and it would have put him over the top, and he didn’t win. I think his push kind of took a s**t. You could have raised the stock in Bray.”
While Nash’s comments are purely speculative, they provide an interesting perspective on a pivotal moment in Bray Wyatt’s career. WrestleMania is often seen as a platform for pushing new talent and creating memorable moments, and many fans and industry insiders have debated whether Wyatt should have emerged victorious against The Undertaker.
Wrestling fans and critics alike have long praised Bray Wyatt’s unique character and captivating storytelling abilities. His “Eater of Worlds” persona and ability to command the attention of audiences have made him a standout performer in WWE. However, some argue that the company failed to fully capitalize on his potential.
Bray Wyatt’s WrestleMania 31 match against The Undertaker was highly anticipated, with fans eager to see how the two contrasting characters would clash. Despite a strong showing, Wyatt ultimately fell short, and some believe this hindered his momentum and hindered his overall push within the company.
It’s worth noting that The Undertaker’s undefeated streak at WrestleMania was already broken the previous year by Brock Lesnar. Many fans expected this loss to be a turning point for Wyatt and a chance for him to ascend to the next level in WWE. However, The Undertaker emerged victorious, leaving fans and industry insiders questioning the decision.
While it’s impossible to say for certain how Wyatt’s career would have unfolded if he had defeated The Undertaker at WrestleMania 31, Kevin Nash’s comments shed light on the potential missed opportunity. Nash, a veteran of the wrestling industry, has a unique perspective and provides valuable insight into the inner workings of WWE.
Ultimately, the decision to have The Undertaker defeat Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 31 is one that continues to spark debate among wrestling fans and industry insiders. Whether or not it was the right call, it’s clear that Wyatt’s character and abilities have left a lasting impact on the world of professional wrestling.
