• “The most insulting, rotten, embarrassing, fake, phoney, bad bullsh*t I’ve ever seen in wrestling” – WWF Legend On The Fiend
Former Universal Champion “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt was released from WWE last year and he hasn’t returned to wrestling ever since.
During a recent edition of his podcast, WWF Legend Jim Cornette addressed the rumors of Wyatt retiring from pro-wrestling.
Cornette went on to rip Wyatt’s Fiend gimmick. Below is what he said:
“People want to know where he is. I have no idea why. I have no idea why anybody is interested in The Fiend after the Firefly Funhouse and the crispy critter from Canyon Creek got burned alive, and all that hocus-pocus science fiction, horror movie mumbo jumbo.
The most insulting, rotten, embarrassing, fake, phoney, bad bullsh*t I’ve ever seen in wrestling – and they still want to know, ‘Where is he and when’s he coming back?’
If he wants to retire, I’m all in favor of it. I might have liked the guy but when I saw The Fiend, nah.”
