Last week’s episode of Monday Night RAW finally saw the return of Bray Wyatt to live TV. He debuted his new ‘Fiend’ character, assaulting Finn Balor in the process.
This attack seems to be setting up Wyatt’s return feud and, notably, Balor’s exit feud. Finn reportedly requested time off from WWE, and the promotion will probably use the bout between the two as a means of giving it to him. Their match will most likely take place at SummerSlam.
If you thought we might be getting a matchup featuring The Fiend versus The Demon, however, prepare to be disappointed.
A fan asked Dave Meltzer on Twitter whether the Demon will be appearing at SummerSlam. Meltzer’s two-letter response was to the point: No.
At one point we were on the cusp of a match featuring The Demon vs Bray Wyatt’s Sister Abigail persona, but this never came to fruition. It appears that the WWE Universe will simply have to wait a little longer if they want to see the Demon take on a more psychotic Bray Wyatt.
There is a good chance that the matchup will be made official during tonight’s RAW Reunion special.
SummerSlam takes place on August 11th from the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Canada.
