The rumors of a female wrestler joining Bray Wyatt’s Firefly Fun House could create a new star. Many of the ladies on the WWE main roster are currently being underutilized. WWE only has so much television time available for the women’s division to get more than the handful of angles they have on Raw and SmackDown. Someone joining Wyatt adds instant credibility as part of the hottest act in WWE.
The presentation of Wyatt makes anyone united with him an important part of the show. Not everyone in the women’s division would be a good fit with The Fiend. We will look at both realistic candidates that would work for the better and those that would not make much sense. Find out if your favorite women’s wrestler is an ideal fit. These are five female superstars that should join The Fiend and five that should not.
10 Should: Liv Morgan
The biggest name on the rumor mill regarding this storyline is Liv Morgan. Cryptic tweets have implied that Morgan is up to something. WWE reportedly was going to come up with a new way for her to return after a match against Charlotte Flair on SmackDown.
Bray Wyatt’s Firefly Fun House would be tremendous for the character work of Morgan. WWE needs to figure out if she is a part of their long-term future or not soon. A run with The Fiend could make sense given the character depth she has shown.
9 Should NOT: Naomi
Naomi has been off WWE television for months but is expected to return in time for WrestleMania season. WWE will have to find a relevant way to showcase such a talent coming back from an extended absence from television.
Naomi is great as a face with her colorful entrance. Bray Wyatt’s presentation would not make sense for Naomi in the grand scheme of things. WWE would have many better fits in the women’s division and Naomi would have better ways to come back.
8 Should: Mickie James
An injury has kept Mickie James off WWE television for many months now with no timetable for a return. James is a veteran that has made just about every character work throughout her legendary career.
Bray Wyatt would need someone with the tools to step up with a main event worthy act. James has the experience and the skillset to make it happen. This would be a stronger character shift than any other in her career, but the legacy and versatility would make it happen.
7 Should NOT: Tamina
WWE has primarily used Tamina as an enforcer character of sorts. AJ Lee, Lana, and Naomi have each benefitted from having Tamina as their muscle on the outside during their matches. A male wrestler getting her onboard may make sense, but the fit is just not there with Bray Wyatt.
The Fiend needs someone with stronger character skills and the versatility to show up during his matches and backstage in the Firefly Fun House segments. Tamina has not shown the ability to perform at that level and would be a poor fit with Wyatt.
6 Should: Ember Moon
The mysterious element of Ember Moon’s character has the potential to find success with The Fiend. Moon’s untapped potential has yet to be showcased on the main roster. Aside from the SummerSlam 2019 feud with Bayley, Ember has struggled to receive noteworthy opportunities.
Bray Wyatt adding Moon to his Firefly Fun House can show more of her character in the segments. Ember’s superb wrestling skills would make her an even bigger asset to him if she ever has to wrestle or even just get involved in his matches.
5 Should NOT: Sarah Logan
Sarah Logan is trying to break out after months of little television time. The end of the Riott Squad faction would see all three members removed from the television storylines. Logan has had some matches with Dana Brooke on Main Event, but that’s the most of her push.
Unfortunately, Logan would make zero sense with Bray Wyatt as The Fiend. Logan would be better off forming a faction with her husband’s tag team, the Viking Raiders. Wyatt’s role in the Firefly Fun House would not be one Logan can thrive with.
4 Should: Paige
WWE has transitioned Paige into a regular on the Backstage talk show. Paige is rarely ever on WWE television itself after the Kabuki Warriors turned on her. The success of Paige made her a highly popular character that WWE is doing nothing with at the moment.
Paige’s older Scream Queen character would easily be improved by showing a darker side of her. Furthermore, aligning with The Fiend likely wouldn’t even require wrestling. Paige can take part in the Firefly Fun House segments and just appear ringside for Wyatt’s matches. The addition of Paige would add even more star power to The Fiend gimmick.
3 Should NOT: Natalya
Natalya is trying to find a way to break out on the Raw brand after getting lost in the shuffle again. Unfortunately, Natalya's character work in her decade-long run in WWE has yet to show the depth of playing a wilder character.
There is no way Natalya could make a spot in the Firefly Fun House work in her favor. Even the short heel runs for Natalya rarely saw her get edgy beyond saying swear words. Natalya is not right for the role as part of The Fiend’s act.
2 Should: Ruby Riott
The absence of Ruby Riott will make her return special when she comes back from injury. Ruby was outstanding in the role of the Riott Squad leader. The end of the group was sad to fans of the trio, but Riott especially has strong potential as a singles star.
Ruby’s dark side has already been showcased with some of her actions leading the Riott Squad. A return as part of The Fiend’s act would add huge momentum to her placement on the show. Few wrestlers can provide a better character fit while having the skills to back it up as Ruby could.
1 Should NOT: Nia Jax
Another wrestler currently on the injured list who will have a big return at some point is Nia Jax. WWE loves Jax and has positioned her in quite a few high-profile situations. However, becoming part of the Firefly Fun House makes little sense for her.
It would be a hard sell to form chemistry between Wyatt and Jax. Nia has mostly worked as a bully heel. There needs to be more depth before she could align herself with The Fiend. Jax is a realistic name in terms of WWE’s perspective of female star power, but she would be a terrible fit with Wyatt.
