Vince McMahon Involvement In WWE Firefly Fun House Revealed

SFX artist and Callosum Studios owner Jason Baker has provided insight on Bray Wyatt’s (Windham Rotunda) relationship with WWE creative and Vince McMahon.

Baker has contributed to many projects for WWE over the years, and was notably one of the artists responsible for bringing The Fiend and Firefly Fun House to life.

Speaking with Metro, Jason Baker noted that backstage names including Vince McMahon would always consider his and Rotunda’s ideas. Discussing the origins of Firefly Fun House, Baker said:

“just out of the blue one day, I got a call from Windham. ‘He was like, “Hey. I got this idea.” I was like, ‘Alright, what’s up?’ He’s like, ‘I kinda wanna do a kid’s TV host with a twist.’

“(WWE writer Nick Manfredini) is definitely the unsung hero of the Firefly Fun House, I don’t think he gets enough credit. And then we just sort of went from there. We made a terrifying monster in professional wrestling.

“We stayed up till two , three in the morning just chatting about what we could do, what we should do, what we probably couldn’t do. ‘We’re probably not gonna get away with that, so we should just drop this idea now’. Just things like that.

“There was some potential for other characters, other puppets, other looks, other things. That’s the thing – we were always just trying to add something new to it, something fresh, and just keep it going.

“I wasn’t there every week, I wasn’t there all the time. But I will say this, a lot of times guys like Vince would listen to ideas. They’d really take it under consideration and allow us to run rampant with a lot of things.

“At a particular time, I remember when we first started it, there was a time when we could just do whatever we wanted and Vince was like, ‘OK guys, I trust you!’ I don’t know the ins or outs of what happened or what went down, but he was very open. He listened to us, he listened to ideas. I think that’s definitely credit to him!’

Rotunda was released by WWE in July. The former WWE Champion is currently working on a horror feature film.
