Wyatt Sicks' debut on WWE RAW confirmed that Uncle Howdy (aka Bo Dallas) would lead the faction. A veteran pro wrestler, EC3, recently talked about how appropriate it was for the mantle to be passed from Bray Wyatt to his brother.

While Bo Dallas previously has had a few standout moments in WWE, he did not win any major titles other than the RAW Tag Team title once. Before Bray Wyatt's unfortunate demise, there were plans to seemingly have Uncle Howdy and him control The Wyatt Sicks faction. However, Bray's passing last year effectively canceled those plans until Bo came back to lead the group.

Speaking on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Outlaws, NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion EC3 stated that Bo Dallas was quite as creative as his brother.

"It should be, would be, has to be him. I mean, I was close as a friend of the business. I mean that's the closest person to him in his entire life, that's his brother. Just knowing what their bond is, how close they were, how close family is, it is almost serendipitous in a masterful storytelling way that from Windham (Bray Wyatt) it gets handed down... Bo is very bizzarely creative as well. And I would say he is like a free-er spirit than even Windham would be." [2:16 onwards]

Another veteran shares his reaction to Wyatt Sicks' debut on WWE RAW

While The Wyatt Sicks debut was a very well-crafted segment, veteran journalist Bill Apter was not pleased with it for another reason.

According to Bill Apter, the spot was too insensitive to be shot live. Speaking on The Wrestling Time Machine, the veteran stated:

"I am gonna use a 4 letter word here. Yuck, I hated it. I hated it. I really didn't like it at all. I think Braun Strowman was down too, I didn't feel it was enough. I didn't feel like it was a tribute. I just felt like they were trying to continue the story of course. It should have been a cinematic peace. It shouldn't have been live there. I just didn't... It didn't work for me." [1:13 onwards]
