Swagger joining The Wyatt Family works just a bit better because it gives Swagger something he doesn't have in the singlet with all the gloss and polish of being a good ol' American boy -- it gives him an edge. I think his size would get more of an emphasis in matches, and he'll probably strike more and be forced to work a ground game that isn't so much for show.

The Real American probably isn't leading man material in WWE, for whatever reason. He gets good reactions and is so fucking fluid in the ring. By having Bray Wyatt talk about how America has driven their golden child into the arms of a true nation beyond borders -- it's going to get heat and it's going to evolve the Swagger persona. Having a former World Champion in their ranks will probably help The Family too. Swagger's about as credible as you can get without dragging someone down.

I guess Dolph Ziggler would fit this role too.
When you first proposed this idea I thought "nah", but it's actually really interesting for a guy like Swagger to "give in" to Bray.
