WWE has spent the past few months teasing plans for The Wyatt Sick6 and the stage has indeed been set for them to feud with Chad Gable and his new followers, the Creed Brothers.
Some fans will question why the faction hasn't been booked into a main event angle, but just like when the original Wyatt Family debuted, this feels like an appropriate start for the group which should help keep expectations in check and give them time to be properly established.
During last night's episode of RAW, the Creeds squared off with former Alpha Academy members Akira Tozawa & Otis. The heels won the match thanks to a distraction from Gable which allowed them to hit Otis with a double back suplex from the middle rope.
After the 1-2-3 had been counted, Gable berated and attacked Gable before Maxxine Dupri stepped into the ring and hit with one heckuva slap.
The lights then went out and Gable and the Creeds were attacked by three members of the group who were unmasked as Joe Gacy, Eric Rowan and Dexter Lumis. They made short work of the brothers and, interestingly, Michael Cole referred to Nikki Cross as "Sister Abigail," suggesting she'll take on that moniker, not the returning Alexa Bliss.
Gable fled and found Bo Dallas/Uncle Howdy waiting for him at the top of the entrance ramp!
Later, he demanded that RAW General Manager Adam Pearce give him and the Creeds a match against The Wyatt Sick6 next Monday. That will be a big test for the faction and one which should help better establish them on the show.
