An air of dread surrounds tonight’s Friday the 13th edition of WWE SmackDown, as multiple members of The Wyatt Sicks have issued cryptic warnings, signaling their potential presence at the Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky. Joe Gacy, who performs as Huskus the Pig Boy, took to social media with a stark message, posting only the number “13.” Nikki Cross amplified the sinister atmosphere with her own post, writing, “Happy Friday the 13th.”

These ominous teases follow the faction’s chaotic reappearance on the May 23 episode of SmackDown. During a WWE Tag Team Championship match between The Street Profits and Fraxiom, the group surfaced after a long hiatus to lay waste to everyone in sight, including the competitors and the teams of #DIY and the Motor City Machine Guns, who were at ringside. This attack re-established the group as a significant threat to the tag team division.

Despite their impactful return, the creative direction for the faction has drawn criticism from some industry veterans. This past week, Dutch Mantell voiced his concerns, arguing that WWE has mishandled the group’s booking through inconsistent appearances. “Anything that you do with the Wyatt Sicks you do right now is an exercise in futility,” Mantell stated, suggesting the damage to their credibility might be irreversible. This sentiment has been echoed by others, including Rikishi, who believe the stable lost crucial momentum during its absence.

The speculation surrounding the group’s next move intensified last week in the run-up to Money in the Bank, with persistent rumors about the potential recruitment of Alexa Bliss. While Bliss competed in the ladder match without aligning with the faction, the questions surrounding her connection to The Wyatt Sicks remain.

With the ominous date and the direct teases from its members, the stage is set for The Wyatt Sicks to potentially make another definitive statement and continue their rampage on the blue brand.
