The Wyatt Sicks might make their long-awaited SmackDown debut tonight, potentially with a surprising new leader at the helm. The eerie faction has been noticeably absent from the blue brand since being drafted there, but that could change imminently.
With Uncle Howdy sidelined, WWE appears to be considering Malakai Black as the group’s potential new leader. According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Black’s return to WWE is imminent following his AEW departure.
Black’s dark and supernatural persona aligns perfectly with The Wyatt Sicks’ macabre aesthetic, making him an ideal replacement to lead the faction. His free agent status combined with WWE’s reported interest creates natural timing for such a debut.

Another possibility involves Alexa Bliss, who made her Royal Rumble return earlier this year as “The Wicked Witch of WWE” complete with her spooky doll Lilly. This presentation, rather than her “Goddess” persona, suggests WWE might be positioning her for involvement with the group.
Bliss’s previous association with Bray Wyatt before her hiatus adds further credibility to this scenario. She could either join the faction or potentially take on a leadership role herself.
While these possibilities remain speculative, The Wyatt Sicks’ SmackDown debut feels increasingly imminent. Whether led by Black, Bliss, or someone else entirely, tonight’s show could finally reveal the next chapter for the mysterious group.
