What did Bray Wyatt say about Bo Dallas potentially joining The Wyatt Family 7 years ago?

Bray Wyatt rose to stardom in WWE after forming The Wyatt Family in 2012. The faction did not have his real-life brother Bo Dallas as a member. However, there were initial plans for them to be part of it together.

Bray Wyatt joined WWE in 2009 and joined The Nexus as Husky Harris the following year, but it was his role as The Eater of Worlds and leader of The Wyatt Family in 2012 that garnered him a lot of fame. The late great star was joined by Erick Rowan and the late Brodie Lee (FKA Luke Harper) and in 2015, Braun Strowman joined the group. All the while, Bo Dallas mainly remained as a singles star. Interestingly, the real-life brothers were close to being in the same group.

In a 2017 interview with Gorilla Position, Bray Wyatt was asked if Bo Dallas would ever join The Wyatt Family. The former world champion stated that he was certain it would happen at some point and they had discussed it before. He also praised his brother for his performance and stated that he was underestimated.

"I'm certain of it. At some point, yeah. [When asked if it was something they discussed a lot] Not a lot, but it was something that we have discussed. We spent our whole careers together when we were in Florida, back before when it was cool to be in developmental. So yeah, we were pretty good together and I think that it will come at some point, because he's the most underestimated performer on this roster." [H/T Gorilla Position]

The Wyatt Family officially ended in 2017 and Bo did not get the chance to join the group. In 2021, Bray Wyatt and Dallas were released from WWE but returned the following year with the latter portraying the character of Uncle Howdy.

In August 2023, it was announced that Bray Wyatt unfortunately passed away at the age of 36. In June 2024, Bo Dallas continued his brother's legacy, as well as Brodie's legacy, by leading The Wyatt Sicks, a group comprising himself, Dexter Lumis, Erick Rowan, Nikki Cross, and Joe Gacy.

Who is Bo Dallas and The Wyatt Sicks' current target on WWE RAW?

The chilling stable on WWE debuted in a major way by attacking backstage personnel and a popular superstar after the June 17, 2024, episode of RAW, the latter being Chad Gable.

Since that night, the group has targeted the former Tag Team Champion. During the latest edition of RAW, Chad finally called out Bo Dallas after figuring out the superstar was also Uncle Howdy. However, Gable also recruited The Creed Brothers by his side to attack Bo.

When the trio thought they had already slain Dallas, the rest of The Wyatt Sicks appeared. Before they could even have a proper face-off, Gable's group ran away from the ring.

It would be interesting to see what is next for Bo Dallas and the rest of The Wyatt Sicks in the Stamford-based promotion.
