The faction used to be on RAW but transferred to SmackDown earlier this year.Former WWE manager Dutch Mantell makes bold claim about The Wyatt Sicks' futureWrestling veteran Dutch Mantell recently made an interesting claim about the future of The Wyatt Sicks in the promotion.The mysterious faction features Uncle Howdy (Bo Dallas), Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, Erick Rowan, and Nikki Cross. They debuted on WWE RAW last year to a ton of fanfare but quickly lost momentum.Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's BroDown show, Mantell stated that the faction was not booked consistently and would regularly disappear from television. The legend suggested that there wasn't a long-term future for the group in the company, and the creative team failed to get them over."That's another team they got that they've done something with them, then they disappear for a month, two months, three months. Then they come back and they do something else with them, then they disappear. So, to get them over long term, they have failed at their job, the creative team. Anything that you do with the Wyatt Sicks you do right now is an exercise in futility," said Mantell.

It will be interesting to see how long the faction can hang onto the titles moving forward on SmackDown.
