3. Wyatt Family Addresses the Events from This Week

The Wyatt Family battled American Alpha in their rematch for the tag titles. However, confusion caused by Luke Harper at ringside caused Orton to fall to a roll-up pinfall attempt. This would result in an exchange of angry words between Orton and Harper. Things got physical and that was when Bray Wyatt tried to calm his clan.

However, Bray’s attempts would prove futile as Harper and Orton went at it again. A misplaced kick from Harper would take down Wyatt instead of Orton.

This was a first time for Wyatt and the stunned leader of the Wyatt Family kept his nerve and his team intact. However, creative would seek to find more ways to tease an implosion in the coming weeks as well. But still, one would expect Wyatt to come out or appear on the big screen and address the situation.

The implosion of the Wyatts could come at the hands of Orton or Harper equally. Regardless of who is responsible, it would be big moment and would need a bigger stage. The nearest opportunity would be the Royal Rumble. However, all three of the Wyatt Family are yet to enter in the rumble. But expect them to do just that in the coming weeks.
