AEW star Matt Hardy recently discussed the relationship between Bray Wyatt and Vince McMahon on his The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast.
Hardy and Wyatt were a tag team in 2018 where they would become the RAW Tag Team Champions.
“Windham (Bray Wyatt) has always had a very strange relationship with Vince, very strange, like, I almost felt like Vince looked at him like a son in some ways,” Hardy said (quotes via WrestlingNews.co). “When he would do things that he liked, he would love him and he would really give him everything that he could possibly give him. He would bend over backwards to try and accommodate him. But then when he did something he didn’t like, he hated, like he was going to lock him away for good.”
“It was almost like a really weird, a really strange and different duality that Vince shared with Bray. When he liked him or loved him, he was all about him. But when he disliked him, oh my god, it was really bad and he would like punish him and insult him. To me, it was so strange. It was almost like a parent.”
