The sound of monks chanting is heard, and the arena lights turn to a hazy purple. Druids march out as the arena watches on in curiosity. The bell tolls, and Undertaker’s music begins to play. Undertaker and his brother Kane slowly step out to a big reaction from the crowd. They stand at the top of the ramp and look out into the crowd before slowly walking down the ramp. This week on the WWE Network will be Undertaker Week. Replays are shown of Undertaker and Kane attacking The Wyatt Family last week on RAW. This Sunday at WWE Survivor Series, The Brothers of Destruction will face two members of The Wyatt Family. A loud “Undertaker” chant breaks out in the arena.

The Wyatt Family video flashes on the screen and the lights go out. Bray Wyatt comes out into the darkened arena with his family by his side. Wyatt sits in a rocking chair at the top of the ramp and blows out the lantern. The crowd loudly boos them. Wyatt says for twenty-five years, Undertaker has reigned over WWE. For twenty-five years, Undertaker has instilled fear in every creature on this earth. Wyatt thinks twenty-five years is long enough. It’s time for a new army of darkness to emerge. The Brothers of Destruction are no longer fate’s master. They no longer dictate when wolves howl or lightening strikes. Wyatt does that. Wyatt says he is the new face of fear. He is the master and decider. After Survivor Series, they will just be remembered as the brothers he destroyed. Wyatt says he is the one. Wyatt raises his arm, and thunderclaps are heard in the arena. As for the Creatures of the Night, they are his.
Wyatt’s video flashes, and the lights go out. When they come back on, Wyatt is laughing. The druids are wearing sheep masks. Wyatt growls, “Run.” The druids get in the ring, and Undertaker and Kane clean house on them. They then give stereo Chokeslams to the druids. Undertaker then invites The Wyatt Family to come in the ring. Luke Harper, Erick Rowan, and Braun Strowman make their way to the ring, but Wyatt stops them. Their destiny is on Sunday. Until then, Undertaker and Kane can follow the buzzards. The screen flashes black, and that’s the end of the segment.
