Bray Wyatt has created one of the most captivating characters in WWE with his unique speaking style, commitment to the role and moves in the ring.

Yet, winning the WWE championship at Sunday’s Elimination Chamber would be his first singles title since coming up from NXT in the summer of 2012.

By capturing the title, he also would secure a headline spot at Wrestlemania against Royal Rumble winner Randy Orton, a member of the Wyatt Family.

“I am going to take this opportunity and bust through the ceiling,” Wyatt told For The Win. “I’m going to show the world that I have finally arrived.”

The word that comes to mind, though, is “overdue.”

“That’s on me,” he said. “I’m not going to sit here and blame anyone else or point the finger. It’s on me to step up. I don’t want to sit back 20 years from now and say I wish I had done something now.

“My mind is in the right place and I know what I have to do. This is the Era of Wyatt. I know it. Everyone else knows it. Now it’s time to deliver.”

A year ago, Wyatt said in an interview that he didn’t think WWE knew how to use the Wyatt Family when they arrived and “they still don’t know how to use what we are.”

Asked where he still felt that way, Wyatt demurred and looked forward.

“I had those issues (with the company) and those issues have been moments that made me a better person. That’s the reality of the situation,” he said. “I am going to headline Wrestlemania, and I don’t care who knows it or who’s afraid of it. That’s what it’s going to be.”

This Bray Wyatt, though, is different than the Wyatt of the past, especially physically.

Early in 2016, Wyatt had back issues and then injured his calf during a European tour in April. He returned in June and then was drafted to Smackdown in the brand split in July.

After a rivalry with Orton, Orton joined the Wyatt Family and won the tag team titles.

“Randy Orton said something this week and it stuck in my head — he said in order to stay on top of the food chain, one must evolve,” Wyatt said. “I think that’s exactly what I’ve done. Ever since I got here, I’ve gotten more vicious, I’ve gotten bigger, I’ve gotten stronger.

“The Wyatt Family has petered in numbers, but I don’t feel like I need them anymore. I don’t feel like I ever needed them and I certainly didn’t need Luke Harper. Going forward, this is all about me. You have to evolve to survive here. I feel like I’ve grown in every single way as an entity, as a god. I’m looking forward to that coming to fruition.”

Sunday’s Elimination Chamber (8 p.m. ET; preshow at 7 p.m.) features John Cena defending his title against Wyatt, A.J. Styles, The Miz, Dean Ambrose and Baron Corbin inside the massive cage. Two men start with the other four locked in pods at each corner. Another man comes in at intervals. Wrestlers can be eliminated by pinfall or submission at any point.

Wyatt spoke with For The Win about what the title would mean, the Elimination Chamber and his famous wrestling family.

You grew up in the wrestling business so what’s your view on what the WWE title means?

It’s power, man. Who in the world doesn’t want power? You walk into the WWE and there should only be one goal and that is the goal — to obtain that power is to rule the world in my eyes. It’s something like a magnet that I hold up that I say, “Look at me, listen to me, I am your leader.”

On my last day in NXT, I told the world I was going to do this and I was going to come here and dominate this place and change the world. To see that finally coming through and to know that I can go in and destroy everyone in the Elimination Chamber, I owe this to the people that have followed me. I owe this to them. I’m ready to lose my life for this. I don’t know that anyone else is willing to do the same so I’m very dangerous in there.

This is your first time in the Chamber. John Cena has been in seven Chamber matches; the Miz has been in one. How does the structure itself factor in to your approach?

It will be my first time in the Chamber, but I’ve been lot of similar stuff. I’ve kind of made my home in cage matches, Last Man Standing matches, streetfights and Hell in a Cell. That’s kind of my calling card.

I don’t feel out of place in something like this whereas I feel like the other competitors do. Cena has done it all. He’s been through all these. I’ve been through a lot of them with him. You look at the other competitors. They don’t shy away from being in things like this. This is my match to lose.

You might have seen that Cena said this week that he feels he and AJ Styles are on a different level than the other people in this match and that they are running on all cyclinders. I am going to assume you disagree with that.

(Laughing) … I don’t care about what he thinks or who’s clicking on what cylinder. It’s about who walks out of the Chamber alive. What he says means absolutely nothing to me. Whoever wins can go on and headline Wrestlemania. That’s all I’m worried about. I’m not concerned about how he and AJ are doing.

Last year, you didn’t have a match at Wrestlemania because of injury and were part of The Rock’s appearance after facing The Undertaker and John Cena in the year before that. Did not having a match show you how precious those Wrestlemania matches are?

Yes. The entire year is based on what happens that one night. It is a launching point and a place where everything goes to die. It’s pivotal. This year at Wrestlemania, I feel like I have to prove something for me. Not for anyone else. Last year coming out with the Rock was this and that, but I’m looking to cement myself as a legend. I have a lot to do here. This year is the beginning of the Era of Wyatt.

Braun Strowman was part of the Wyatt Family before the brand split and is now dominating on RAW. Did you see the potential for him to do what’s doing now?

Of course. He was bred to be the monster that he is. I spent countless hours with him, just talking him and mentoring him. All the physical capabilities are there. You can’t teach a man to be as strong and powerful as he is. I’m very proud of him, as long as he just stays the hell out of my way. If he comes my way, I’ll snap both of his legs and bring him down to my level.

Among the Hall of Fame rumors is that your dad, Mike Rotunda, will be inducted this year. What would that mean to him?

He’s extremely deserving. He’s one of the most decorated sports entertainers in the history of this industry from all over the world. It would mean something to him to final be recognized. I can’t think of anyone they would bring in who is more deserving than he is. I don’t think he’s stressing over it or begging for it, but it’s time.

You dad going into the Hall of Fame would mean both he, your grandfather Blackjack Mulligan and uncle Barry Windham are Hall of Famers. That would be incredible for your family.

It would be really cool. Unfortunately, I have my own fish to fry coming up. As great as that would be for us, I’m looking to cement my own legacy here. The drive is there. It’s a prophecy that I have to fulfill. My mind is not wandering. I’m laser focused and that’s all I’ve thought about.

More Elimination Chamber

Sunday’s event is the last Smackdown pay-per-view event before WrestleMania.

A few other things to watch:

• In what might be a first for a WWE pay-per-view, there are three women’s singles match: Natalya vs. Nikki Bella, Mickey James vs. Becky Lynch and Alexa Bliss defends the Smackdown women’s title against Naomi. Given the general feeling that the RAW women’s division is stronger, this will be an opportunity to better establish some of Smackdown’s top women.

• The entire tag team roster is in a tag team turmoil match with American Alpha defending the titles. Jason Jordan and Chad Gable are two of the best technical wrestlers on the roster and popular with the fans, but don’t seem to have taken hold of the division since becoming tag team champions.

• Randy Orton faces Luke Harper in a match centered around the fallout from Harper’s move from the Wyatt Family. This could steal the show.

ROH goes interactive

The Ring of Honor event Sunday in Columbus, Ohio, has been dubbed “The Experience” with fans getting to select the stipulation in three matches.

The match between Adam Cole and Hangman Page against Jay Lethal and Bobby Fish will either be a tables match, a no disqualification page or a fall count anywhere match. The world television title match between champion Marty Scurrll and Lio Rush will be two out of three falls, a submission match or a European rounds match. Those stuplations were voted on In advance of the event though the Ring of Honor website and social media channels.

The challengers for The Kingdom in a six-man tag team title match will be determined by the fans in the arena in an SMS-based poll. ROH is providing the fans with 10 names and the top three vote-getters will team up.

Rock and Paige connection

Dwayne Johnson and his Seven Bucks production company along with WWE Studios is producing a movie about the life of WWE performer Paige and her British wrestling family called “Fighting With My Family.”

Along with Paige – real name Saraya-Jade Bevis – her family includes parents Julia and Ian and older brothers Roy and Zak. Her parents wrestle under the names Saraya and Ricky Knight. Before coming to WWE, Paige wrestled as Brittani Knight.

The family was featured in a documentary in England when Paige was a young teenager just looking to begin making her way in the business

“The ‘family strong’ element I saw in the [documentary], is what grabbed my attention,” Johnson wrote on Instagram. “That no matter how crazy life gets, no matter how dysfunctional our families can sometimes be and especially regardless of how much we fight — we’re always there for each other when it counts. That’s what families do. … My gut said there was a great movie to be made.”

Johnson is expected to make a cameo. Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones will play mom Sarayea, Nick Frost has been cast as dad Ricky, and Florence Pugh will play Paige.
