Backstage details on Bray Wyatt’s absence from WWE TV and return plans. The former WWE Champion was recently released from the promotion.
Bray Wyatt has been a WWE television regular for much of his career. Since adopting the Fiend gimmick he became even more pivotal to the promotion with much more focus on his segments and storylines. However, post-Wrestlemania he just suddenly stopped appearing.

It was speculated that his absence was due to “mental health issues.”
That however, has since been proven wrong.
The former WWE and Universal Champion was away from WWE TV for reasons that had nothing to do with his mental health. He was also originally scheduled to make his WWE return on tonight’s episode of Monday Night RAW.
Backstage details on Bray Wyatt’s absence from WWE TV and return plans
According to a report from Fightful Bray Wyatt had family engagements keeping him away from WWE in both May and June and that the reports of mental health issues were falsely reported.
It was also confirmed that Wyatt is “100% healthy and able to wrestle.”
The report adds that Wyatt was working to add “creative elements to his character.”
He was supposed to return during the August 9th episode of RAW in Orlando i.e tonight’s episode.
Unfortunately for him, he was released from the promotion last weekend. He will now have to wait out his 90-day non-compete clause before he can show the fans what he is creatively capable of.
Judging by his recent tweet, it appears Wyatt himself cannot wait to take the next step and is looking forward to enthralling the fans once again.
