A few days ago, the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento sent out a Tweet that suggested Bray Wyatt would be challenging for the WWE Universal Championship. This would be at the Hell in a Cell PPV, which takes place after Clash of Champions.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (subscribe here), Dave Meltzer provided an update on the plans for Bray at Hell in a Cell.
Here is what he wrote:
“For what it’s worth, and you know the drill with anything this far in advance, the WWE sent the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento info that the main event for the 10/6 PPV in that building would be the Rollins-Strowman winner at Clash of Champions defending the title against Wyatt in a Hell in a Cell match. I should point out that usually in this situation it’s just filler to advertise something to sell tickets. This is not the case here. The real plan at this point is for Wyatt to headline the show and challenge for the Universal title.”
My Take: I feel uneasy about this as it seems much too early for Bray to jump into the Universal Title picture. I just hope WWE doesn’t rush things too much because they have something special with Bray.
