The Wyatt Sicks have returned to dismantle the SmackDown tag team division in the WWE on May 23, 2025. The stable in WWE is led by Bo Dallas a.k.a Uncle Howdy, the younger brother of the late Bray Wyatt.

The Wyatt Sicks was first introduced in June 2024 as the successors of the late Bray Wyatt. The stable includes Bo Dallas, Erick Rowan, Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis and Nikki Cross. However, the stable also paid a tribute to their deceased leader in an endearing and nostalgic way once they returned. Read all about what the Wyatt Sicks did to honor the late Bray Wyatt.

The Wyatt Sicks arrived and instantly destroyed everyone in the tag team match between Fraxiom and The Street Profits. This even included DIY and The Motor City Machine Guns who interfered in the match. The stable sent all the tag teams packing from the ring. The Wyatt Sicks had brought a birthday cake with them, which they had lighted. Uncle Howdy then leaned and blew the cake out (via WWE on X) –

This was a chilling, endearing and heartbreaking tribute to the late Bray Wyatt. May 23 was his birthday and he would have been 38 years old if he was alive now. Unfortunately, Bray Wyatt a.k.a Windham Rotunda passed away from a heart attack on August 24, 2023. He and his brother Bo Dallas (Taylor Rotunda) are third-generation wrestlers. The fans also participated in the celebration with torches on their cell phones for the late Bray Wyatt. They also used to do the same during the entrance theme of the late Bray Wyatt.

What Were Bray Wyatt’s Accomplishments in the WWE?

The late Bray Wyatt had a very successful career within the WWE throughout his career. He was originally known as Husky Harris, a member of The Nexus from 2010 to 2011. The WWE rebranded him as Bray Wyatt, the cult leader and the leader of The Wyatt Family from 2012 to 2018. He again rebranded himself with his Firefly Funhouse segments and his alter ego “The Fiend” and “White Rabbit” in the WWE during his final years with the company. The late Bray Wyatt has won the WWE title, WWE Universal title twice WWE Raw Tag Team titles (with Matt Hardy) and WWE SmackDown Tag Team titles twice (once with the late Luke Harper and once with Randy Orton).

The WWE Universe misses the late Bray Wyatt to a great extent. The Wyatt Sicks have now the responsibility of carrying his legacy and work forward in the WWE.
