The former WWE Champion is currently feuding with LA Knight on the blue brand. His official return to the ring will be at the Royal Rumble this month, where he will face Knight in a Pitch Black match. Despite the injury, he is expected to go ahead with the match.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has revealed that Bray Wyatt suffered a broken finger during his match against Mahal. He also stated that he would not be taking any time off due to the injury, as working through a broken finger is very common.
The potential reason for the Pitch Black match between Bray Wyatt and LA Knight
The Pitch Black match being advertised for Royal Rumble will be a first-time-ever match. The rules of the match are still unclear, but the idea was that WWE wanted Wyatt’s on-screen return match to be something special. Meltzer commented on the possible reason behind this match:
Bray Wyatt’s return has received mixed reactions from fans. Despite returning in October 2022, fans have been waiting to see the former Universal Champion back in action, therefore, expectations are high for the first-ever Pitch Black match.
