Bray Wyatt, as many fans expected him to, made his highly-anticipated return to WWE at Extreme Rules 2022

WWE welcomed back Bray Wyatt tonight with a huge return at the end of the main event to Extreme Rules 2022.

Matt Riddle and Seth Rollins competed in the show's main event in the Fight Pit, the first time WWE has brought that match to the main roster.

At the end of the match the lights went black and Wyatt appeared, making his first appearance on a WWE show since April 2021.

Bray Wyatt's return to WWE

The segment saw various versions of Wyatt's Firefly Fun House puppets showing up throughout the arena in what was an incredibly creepy segment.

After a creepy video, Wyatt appeared at the top of the ramp, taking off a new mask to reveal himself as the 'White Rabbit' as the show went off the air, as you can see from the footage below.

Latest news on Bray Wyatt's WWE return

WWE has been teasing the return of Bray Wyatt for several weeks since the 'White Rabbit' vignettes started airing in September.

While nothing was confirmed right out of the bat, it was reported by Fightful Select that members of the WWE roster immediately assumed that the cryptic teases were leading to Bray's comeback.

The teases, over the next few weeks, then started becoming much more clearly about Bray, while still managing to be quite creepy and cryptic.

In fact, the most recent tease on SmackDown last night, which repeated Wyatt's signature 'Let Me In' phrase was the most overt tease that he was the subject of the teases.

Bray Wyatt is likely returning to WWE

Wyatt was cut by WWE, in a move that shocked the majority of the roster, by Vince McMahon in July 2021. Reports from Fightful at the time suggested that Wyatt's colleagues feared for their jobs because of how shocking Bray's release was.

Bray's departure from the company was rumoured to be linked, according to rumours, to his broken relationship with the ex-WWE Chairman, as well as his big-money contract.

However, reports from PWTorch noted immediately after Vince's exit that Wyatt was more far more likely to come back to the company to work for Triple H, which has now happened.

If you manage to catch the show today, you can watch the event in full, including the one-hour pre-show, right now on-demand on the WWE Network.

You can watch all of the fallout to Extreme Rules on Monday Night WWE Raw live in the UK on BT Sport and in the US on the USA Network.
