This one hits different now. Rip to one of the greatest minds of all time. Crazy that Bray is gone

I swear ... if this booking contains a tournament ill lose it

Who’s here after Bray’s passing? So sad to hear that he’s gone now. This would’ve been the ultimate Wyatt story. I know he would’ve loved this different side of his character and this story. RIP Bray. Tell Brodie that we miss him.

"Can I just book Katie Vick again?" that's a sentence I wasn't expecting from Adam of all people.

I don’t know how he did it but Adam booked Bray to be more human for the first time in his career. That’s a very cool thing.

8 months later... it's sad that we will never see Bray's vision for the character... More importantly, it's even sadder that Windham is no longer with us all. RIP Bray

“My brother who taught me to believe” and I got instant chills. This booking is a classic

9:03 well, isn't that line significantly more relevant and hard hitting now.

This was... This was an extremely emotional, heartfelt, carefully crafted storyline. Wow. I was so invested in the mental health aspect. Bray a man who hid behind the monsters he created to deal with his emotions trying desperately to save his little brother from going down that same path.... Just wow man. AMAZING job

And then, after this booking, Bray Wyatt goes on a hiatus & passes away on August 24th. RIP Windham Rotunda (1987-2023).

This whole booking hits differently now.

we love you bray. will never be forgetten. rest in paradise 🕊

"We have all the time in the world". That didn't feel nice after last week.

You made Bo Dallas shine like a star alongside his brother in this storyline. .Him being Uncle Howdy just feels right.

As soon as you mentioned Brodie I started tearing up. Two years later and it still guts me to know he's no longer with us...

Rest in peace, Bray. The shock of red in our world of Black and White.

Looking back now... This was so much better...

If I could add one thing to this story, it's one small thing. The SmackDown before WrestleMania, Bray encounters another person he knows well, Braun Strowman. The history those two have, Strowman being the black sheep of the Wyatt Family, Wyatt drowning him at Extreme Rules, being together when the reign of the tribal chief began. They both don't exchange words but just stare at each other for a while, before Strowman speaks up and says, "Whatever happens after 'Mania, I hope it's for the best. Not just for you, but for them as well." A reference to Bray's wife JoJo and their son, who Braun is the godfather of.

The exact moment you said "Make him proud", just shivers and tears in my eyes. What a beautiful way to remember Brodie, whilst making Bray more tangible, more real. Whether it's better than what is to come of Uncle Howdy is irrelevant; this is a powerful story well told, and that's the important part. That is why we watch these and praise your ideas, or at least it's why I've been watching since WhatCulture days. BX 4 Life

Rewatching this for obvious reasons Rest in Peace, Bray ❤🕊️

I can't say that WWE will do anything better or worse than this, this is intimate. This is art. After the Rumble, I got two requests; Book us a tournament and rebook the League of Nations, please?

This one hits different now........

The key figures in the storytelling (Karrion Kross & Scarlet Bordeaux, Alexa Bliss, Bo Dallas/Rotunda and Erick Rowan) were brilliant to flush out the humane side of Bray Wyatt and destroy the darkness that poisoned him in the past. And, it was a proper sibling feud and an homage to Jon Huber (Luke Harper/Brodie Lee) at WrestleMania 39.

Rest Easy, Bray😪

WWE needs to hire you Adam because you know how to book a appealing story with a great plot hook and a great ending, my hat is off to you 👏👏👏

This has got to be one of the best Adam's done.That Luke Harper bit at the end made it for me.

Today we lost wyatt and watching this video is so sad especially since he said we don't know how much time you have left and that is more surreal right now we would have never knew he would be gone before the end of the yeat

That was effing amazing Adam, arguably one of the most effecting and effective fantasy bookings you've ever done. And I've been a "Blampied aficionado" since 2016. Thankyou

The sad thing is nothing WWE come up with will be as good as this. Honestly so, so good 👍

I like to think bray liked this RIP Windum we love you

i just want to say this might be my favorite booking you’ve done. It was beautifully done, especially the aspects that deal with mental health. As someone who has battled my own demons before, i thought this was very tasteful and well made

Your idea is 1000 times better than what they're actually doing.

This would work if your other Wyatt fantasy bookings actually happened. Bo has never been used properly and it would be hard to take him seriously in that role. Otherwise, great storytelling as always Adam!

RIP Windham Rotunda

You are not suppose to make me want to cry when Rowan says "make him proud"

Genuinely one of the best you've done Adam. This and The Fiend one were superb. You seem to understand what people want more than the writers at wwe. Also I love Bo Dallas return and the tribute to Brody Lee is amazing. Great booking

i love it!! my favorite line is 'he thinks this is what gives bray power, not realizing he's asking his brother to be weak again.'

This is one I wish they could do.

I would love to see how Adam would book the American Badass gimmick.

This... this was really good. I love this story, I love making this run be about tying up loose ends, about growth, change, and honesty with yourself. Regardless of how the Uncle Howdy story ends up... this was marvelous to listen to.

Rest in power Bray 😢

honestly, i had some tears in my eyes at the end of this one and that last match between bo and bray can be so hard for bray, knowing his emotions for his brother, not bo, he could tear up during that match easily since it is so heavy and emotional for all of us and specially for him. anyway amazing booking, i hope it gives some ideas to the bookers and we something this good happen.

Adam's callbacks to his WhatCulture days are always fun to see. Also, would love to see Adam book Brock Lesnar's 2017 Universal Title reign.

Great narrative! Nice way to blend kayfabe with actual, probable character development and storytelling. The section with Brodie's tank top was the perfect send off (this side of the AEW show) to that relationship. 👏 Long time fan, keep up the great content!

This is your best work yet Adam, masterful storytelling

Great work as always! You sure know how to captivate an audience and tell a great story. Very creative.

The main trick with Bray is that in WWE (if this were Lucha Underground or something similar, it'd be different) they need to keep the horror psychological with minimal overtones. If he starts teleporting/shapeshifting/doing voodoo/rising from the dead after being incinerated again is where the pitfalls are. And generally, you need to keep spooky monster gimmicks away from the titles. Titles invariably need to have regular non-spectacle competition and change hands. And its usually when they start going for titles that you see your Bray/Kane/Abyss/etc fall apart because they either have to find ridiculous ways to fail or you get stuck with an unbeatable monster as champion, which then overexposes them as the main face of the brand.

And then Goldberg kills both brothers in less than 2 minutes at Backlash

I want to see Bray vs Dexter Lumis SO bad!

This was a amazing way to close the book on the entire bray wyatt gimmick instead of him being the monster but killing it 👍🏻🙌🏻

Can’t wait to see how Bray will win the title in a tournament

Ironically, I think the actual storyline in WWE is going to similar to this one. You can tell that the person in the uncle howdy mask is likely Bo Dallas.

Adam you sir 👏🏾👌🏾 great story Telling ‼️ don't know how you do it, but this was dope 💯 I actually got Goosebumps this was so damn good

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! One thing I love about this is you have shades of previous brother vs. brother stories, particularly Undertaker and Kane, but is undeniably its own thing, with modern sensibilities and sensitivity. My only niggling critique would be the glaring omission of Braun Strowman, but since I can’t think of any feasible, satisfying way to work him (except maybe as a substitute for Rowan if you couldn’t get Rowan… in this fantasy hypothetical scenario), it’s easy to see why he was left out.

I've seen all the how you would book videos this one is by far the best.

I always look forward to these fantasy booking videos, and this time you've outdone yourself. This is by far my favorite one yet. Compelling, creative, and cleverly nuanced. It is actually a storyline worthy of both the character Bray Wyatt and the artist Windham Rotunda. And that is why it is a shame that WWE, with its heavy handed plot points, will probably never go this route. I still salute your efforts Adam!

Forgot how much I enjoy your booking videos! Well done.

Watching this now really means a lot more now after everything 😢

I think this is my favourite booking yet, paying off Brays entire career while undoing the Curse of 'booking a spooky man'. Well played

You've knocked another one out of the park! This is a great store that makes sense and puts everyone over.

Can I just do Katie Vick again?? -Kane post car crash

Adam is a masterclass storyteller I think all his booking videos are brilliant (except one but that's irrelevant now) my mind is always blown after watching them keep up the good work man huge fan

If the Undertaker can use some "light teleportation" and be regarded as one of the greatest legends of wrestling, I think we'll allow it here, Adam. That said, WWE can go whatever direction they want, but it better be at least as good as this.

I appreciate your humbleness in the face of greatness, but you will find in every mirror you encounter a different but similar greatness. Kudos to another home run booking! $100 says you get correspondence and congratulations from Wyn within the week ;)

This was incredible, bro. Probably your best ever. Kudos 👌

I really like how he said he wanted more information, and nothing really changed!

Damn, Adam. Having a distant older brother this got me a little harder than it usually would.

Very interesting. Well done for tackling a live one :)

Really enjoyed this. Very well thought out.

Loved this, I think even more than the other two Bray bookings

I feel Bray and his gimmicks and idea style would work best for a wrestling promotion like Lucha Underground. That sure we know it's wrestling but it's not shown like it's a legit sporting entertainment event. It's shown like it's an actual fictional world, that just so happens the way they dispute issues is via wrestling. So you can have his characters actually murdering people, you can project him to be unkillable unstoppable and it just seeming legit because that's part of the narrative in this world and story.

I like how it's been 5 months since this video and there's still no endgame in sightm

Uncle Howdy is here. He and the Wyatt 6 will Continue his legacy. What a debut.

I have to admit, as much as I love Bray and his creativity, when Jim Cornette reviewed the Uncle Howdy promo and said "He's going to feud with himself, isn't he?", I felt nervous. Stories like that can make great movies or tv shows, they do not make great wrestling feuds.

Nicely done!

These are just the best, love it

Absolutely love the Bray vs Bo part. Must happen.

Fantastic work, mate!

Best one yet Adam. cant wait for the next one

Jesus how is this so good. IT ALL MAKES SENSE AND IT'S BRILLIANT AND I LOVE IT AND AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Oh my God, the Black Phone deep cut! Not even 90 seconds in and I'm already in love

awesome as always Adam, looking forward to the Rumble :)

Why has this man not gotten a job with WWE booking yet? He is better than 95 percent of them.

I’ve come back to this a few times now, and I still have one big question. After the Bo Dallas feud is done, what does human Bray Wyatt want, and how can he satiate his creative mind without coming up with a new crazy gimmick? Everyone will always expect that next thing or a return to what we know. How can the WWE universe ever get over that and a normal Bray exist? As much as I love Bray, I agree that each of his gimmicks have their own timetable, but I think normal man does as well.

Look forward to the rumble

I love these videos, how are you not a booker for, I dunno, AEW or something? Seriously, these are usually so much better than what we actually got.

Great stuff

That was awesome!

Now he's gone, a crying shame that his last storyline was muddled and unfinised

“ you searching for something in the trees “ 😂😂😂 That threat was smooth for Bray to say 😂❗️

One of my favourites yet!

This is by far the best one yet! HOWEVER … did you ever consider this could be a lot better if ,in fact, none of this happened and we all just enjoy a refreshing Mountain Dew beverage whilst 2 men attend a neon paint party? Just a thought for next time …

Damn fine storytelling as always and can't wait to see how you book Royal Rumble 2023.

9:12 nothing could’ve prepared me for that picture lmao

Yes, love these!

Well done!

This was phenomenal.

I love this. A perfect beginning/end to Bray's WWE story!

That white vest moment nearly made me cry... well done Adam you did it again

9:00- oh boy, you never know.
