* '''What in God's name''' did he manage to do to Wrestling/RandyOrton? First off, this is Randy freaking Orton we're talking about. Second, Randy's had a notoriously ''awful'' history as far as joining stables, and usually prefers to work alone. ''Third'', the two had been bitter enemies up to the point where he joined them, but has recently referred to Bray as a 'god'. [[MoreThanMindControl This all suggests that Wyatt had a little more than a creative sales pitch up his sleeve…]][[ReverseMole or, as the story would reveal, that Orton himself did…]]

* Where did Luke Harper and Erick Rowan come from, and why are they following Bray Wyatt? When one considers how Wyatt temporarily brainwashed Wrestling/DanielBryan into joining his Family, tried to turn Wrestling/JohnCena into a monster, and ''succeeded'' into turning Wrestling/{{Kane}} ''back'' into a monster, it does suggest a certain pattern: Wyatt tries to corrupt people, and is always recruiting for his Family. This raises the unsettling possibility that, like Bryan, Cena, or Kane, Harper and Rowan were just two wrestlers who caught Wyatt's eye for whatever reason, [[TraumaCongaLine and]] [[{{Brainwashed}} then]]... [[FaceHeelTurn well]]...
* As far as being two wrestlers, the obvious is true, but let's get specific here. Before entering WWE, Luke Harper was a tough, no-nonsense {{jerkass}} [[WrestlingDoesntPay wrestling truck driver]] under the name Wrestling/BrodieLee, whereas Erick Rowan was a less successful but equally no-nonsense proud Scandinavian going by Thoruf Marius. Furthermore, we can presume they'd never met each other during those stints. For the demon that possessed Husky Harris to be able to take those two men, break them down and rebuild them into near-catatonic worshippers of his cause as well as a fearsome tag team despite having been complete strangers before this…the things he must've done to them had to have been ''[[NightmareFuel truly horrendous]]''.

* Never mind that — what the ''hell'' did he do to Wrestling/BraunStrowman? We're talking about a 6'8", near-400-pound powerlifter that could probably crush Bray if he were so inclined (and Bray himself is no small fellow). And add to that the fact that he didn't show up until much later - was Wyatt already in the process of breaking Strowman while he and the other two prominent Family members were making their first public appearances? What if Strowman was in one of the other rooms of Bray's swamp hideout?? And for that matter, [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse where's the guy that was in the zombie-like trance in that one room?]] Is he still there? Is he even still alive?
* In light of Braun Strowman's absolute rampage through ''Monday Night Raw'' since being split off from the rest of the Family in the 2016 draft, it is becoming painfully obvious that Bray Wyatt ''tamed and corralled'' this monster. This brings to mind two ''very'' horrifying questions: how under God's hot sun did Wyatt '''''ever''''' pull something like that off in the first place, and ''what was he intending to save the full extent of Strowman's destructive power for?''

Second, Randy's had a notoriously ''awful'' history as far as joining stables, and usually prefers to work alone.
