Former WWE head writer Vince Russo has claimed that a SmackDown tag team could be perfect opponents for the Wyatt Sicks. The faction did not appear in person on RAW this week.

The creepy faction recently destroyed American Made on the flagship show. After feuding for several weeks, the two factions laid it all out in the ring in a brutal Street Fight. The Wyatt Sicks won the match after Uncle Howdy delivered a Sister Abigail on Julius Creed before Dexter Lumis nailed a Frog Splash.

This week on Legion of RAW, Russo felt that the faction could easily show up on the blue brand for another feud. He pointed out that Austin Theory and Grayson Waller could be the perfect opponents for them. The veteran claimed that the former WWE Tag Team Champions could play their part well of being scared of the Wyatts and would be perfect opponents for the Uncle Howdy-led faction.

"I'll tell you who are great foils on SmackDown for that group. Those two bobbleheads—Waller and Theory. I guarantee you, bro, Waller and Theory, that's the next thing they're gonna do. Those guys can sell it over the top; they can be afraid. Those guys can do it," he said. [From 27:00 onwards]

The Wyatt Sicks have been an impactful presence on the red brand in recent months. It will be interesting to see what lies ahead for the ghoulish faction.
