Bray Wyatt once openly pitched a Chainsaw DeathMatch with “The Icon” Sting

The famous yet unknown moment took place at the end of the American Football season in 2020. Bray Wyatt, a longtime Las Vegas Raiders, made a huge announcement if his team made it to the 2021 season of Super Bowl.

The Eater of World went on to state that if his beloved Raiders make The Super Bowl next year, he will wrestle “The Icon” Sting. And not just in a normal match, Bray Wyatt wanted to fight The Stinger at halftime in a chainsaw deathmatch.

In fact, the former WWE Universal Champion took to his Twitter account and openly made the statement. He called out the then-Raider Head Coach Jon Gruden and gave him the responsibility of preparing the team. He wrote:

Obviously, the Chainsaw DeathMatch between Bray Wyatt and The Icon would have been a cinematic one, unfortunately, that could not happen. A few months after the post, Sting left WWE and signed with AEW later that year.

The Eater of Worlds is currently entangled in an interesting feud with LA Knight

After falling prey to Vince McMahon’s budget cuts last year, Bray Wyatt made his return at the recent Extreme Rule PPV. This time, Bray Wyatt has kept fans hooked up with his cryptic promos without even wrestling.

Nevertheless, the way WWE is projecting his current persona, fans can expect another cinematic match in the future. Though a chainsaw deathmatch against Sting would have been an interesting one to see if things had gone according to Bray Wyatt in 2021.
