The Wyatt Sicks, a menacing faction led by Uncle Howdy, burst onto the WWE scene by targeting Chad Gable in their debut. However, despite their initial impact, wrestling veteran Vince Russo believes that the subsequent feud between the Wyatt Sicks and American Made did little to elevate the faction.
The rivalry between the Wyatt Sicks, comprised of Howdy, Erick Rowan, Dexter Lumis, Joe Gacy, and Nikki Cross, and the American Made unfolded over several weeks. The two factions clashed in various matchups, including a singles bout between Uncle Howdy and Chad Gable. However, since the conclusion of the feud, the Wyatt Sicks have seemingly stalled, with their future direction unclear.
During an episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling’s “Legion of RAW” podcast, Vince Russo expressed his disappointment with WWE’s handling of the Wyatt Sicks. He criticized the lack of creative direction for the faction, stating that the company had failed to come up with compelling storylines for them.
“They clearly have nothing for The Wyatt Sicks, bro. They have nothing for them. Nothing. Zero. They planned this out horribly. Here’s the deal, when you have nothing for somebody, you sit in front of your notepad or front of your computer. I don’t care if it’s hours, days, or weeks, you keep thinking about it till you come up with something, bro,” Russo remarked.
Russo also pointed out that targeting Chad Gable exclusively during the feud did not yield significant results for the Wyatt Sicks. He questioned the impact of the feud on Gable’s character development and pondered the faction’s next steps in the absence of a clear direction.
Furthermore, the veteran wrestling commentator highlighted the recent in-ring appearances of Erick Rowan, Joe Gacy, and Dexter Lumis at WWE live events. The trio emerged victorious over the American Made on consecutive nights, showcasing their dominance inside the squared circle.
As the Wyatt Sicks navigate their post-feud trajectory, fans and pundits alike are eager to see how WWE will utilize the faction in future storylines. With uncertainty looming over their direction, it remains to be seen how the Wyatt Sicks will carve out their place in the ever-evolving landscape of WWE programming.
