What Wyatt Sicks did on RAW wasn't reality: Veteran gives out-of-the-box explanation for apparent murder scene
The Wyatt Sicks faction debuted on WWE RAW last Monday night. The segment saw the group leaving several people apparently "murdered," including Chad Gable. While the latter is scheduled to return to the ring on the upcoming episode of the red brand, wrestling veteran Matthew Rehwoldt (fka Aiden English) suggested the whole "murder scene" that Wyatt Sicks left backstage was not part of reality.
Fans were left shocked by the scene of bodies lying on the ground and the blood spatter on the walls as Uncle Howdy and his associates appeared for the first time on RAW last Monday. On the Rebooked podcast, Rehwoldt questioned how the company would justify wrestlers like Gable returning to the ring after seemingly getting "murdered" by Wyatt Sicks.
The former WWE Superstar suggested that the explanation could be that the apparent murder scene was not part of reality. Instead, it was Bray Wyatt's vision of a nightmare.
"This is vision. This is not reality. We did not, we got transported into the Wyatt's vision of a nightmare as they came out. That backstage wasn't the literal backstage of WWE RAW kind of. And it has to be," he said. [1:03:07 - 1:03:21]
The current TNA color commentator said he liked the idea of the fans being transported into a nightmare world as the camera went backstage to show scenes of carnage as the Wyatt Sicks members were introduced.
"I think it can't be literal they killed half a dozen people because how do you justify any of that as they come back. At some point we gotta have a bell ring and have a wrestling match with these murderers. I think it's a vision. I think it's a nightmare world we got like transported to as we went backstage through that door. And I love playing with that idea a little bit," he added. [1:03:38 - 1:04:10]
Will Chad Gable become the sixth member of Wyatt Sicks?
On the Rebooked podcast, Matthew Rehwoldt discussed the future of Chad Gable after falling victim to Wyatt Sicks on Monday Night RAW. The wrestling veteran said the former Tag Team Champion could potentially become the sixth member of the faction.
The TNA color commentator wondered if Gable would be "reborn" as the sixth member since only five have appeared on the red brand on this last edition of RAW.
"Is he reborn as the sixth? Is Bray the sixth and within the lantern, the spirit? You know what I mean? Because there's five of them. Is Chad Gable the sixth? Is he gonna be a part of the group? Is he just been done away with for now?" said Rehwoldt.
Gable will square off against Braun Strowman and Bronson Reed in a Money in the Bank qualifying match on RAW this week. It would be interesting to see if Uncle Howdy's faction will target him again.
