The Fireflies are out! The haunting piano of Shatter is heard as we see the doorway for Bray Wyatt. The lamp appears and we see Bray smile and walk into frame. He slowly makes his way to the ring observing the crowd and soaking in the adoration. Finally, he gets in the ring and laughs as the crowd sings along. He blows out the lamp and the music cuts.

“My name is Bray Wyatt. I like to think that I have a grip on what people think I am. When I go places, I know people will talk and whisper behind my back and it doesn’t bother me. I pretend I don’t hear it but I understand. My entire life I’ve been looked at like a rabid animal, and know what most people wanna see. The Monster. They just wanna see The Fiend.” He asks them if they wanna see the show but that’s not the man he wants to be anymore. “Believe me, it’s very hard to explain what I had to go through man. I know that what I’ve given to you; violence is the only language I can speak. I have to be truthful. I did not attack LA Knight.” Uncle Howdy appears. “Open your eyes, they can make you believe anything, he’ll make fools if you listen to him. Wake up.” It interspersed footage of old Bray Wyatt.

We cut to LA Knight “Lemme talk to ya. I didn’t get to enjoy Thanksgiving, cause 7 days ago minding my own business, I remember being pulled out of a pile of trash. Now that human trash bag can vomit his lies to the world. It took me everything to come here. If I could appear in front of him I’d ask whose game is it? LA Knight’s.” He walks off and the Wyatt logo appears.
