- Despite the debate, the Wyatt Sicks' burger run has kept them in the spotlight, generating buzz among fans.
In a debate that could only happen in the world of professional wrestling, The Wyatt Sicks were spotted grabbing Whataburger after their destructive appearance and backstage massacre on Monday Night Raw. A fan in Texas snapped a photo of the group, unmasked and enjoying a meal, which quickly went viral on social media. The confirmed members include Bo Dallas, Nikki Cross, Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, and Erick Rowan.
The Wyatt Sicks made a shocking debut on Raw, attacking security personnel, extras, and Chad Gable, and causing chaos backstage in the Gorilla Position. This brutal onslaught established them as a formidable faction. It's not clear if they are heels or babyfaces, however, their post-Raw burger run has made them look like friendly bad guys and garnered mixed reactions from fans.
WWE Fans Are Split On The Photo
Some fans expressed disappointment, feeling that the unmasked photo ruined the mystique of the new group. One user on X.com commented, "Good job, now you ruined the gimmick already and it barely started." Another added, "KAYFABE! They literally ruined it!" The break from kayfabe—the wrestling term for maintaining the illusion that the storyline and characters are real—was a sore point for these fans, who felt the reveal undercut the group's menacing debut.

The debut of the Wyatt Sicks is said to have gone over extremely well in WWE, but the creative team is well aware of their biggest upcoming challenge.
On the other hand, some fans found the photo endearing and relatable, enhancing their support for the faction. "Seeing the Wyatt Sicks at Whataburger makes me root for them even more. I hope this works out," one fan commented. The photo gave a humanizing glimpse of the wrestlers behind the characters. And, considering this is a tribute faction to Bray Wyatt, that they're all getting along and out together is somewhat touching.
Few Should Be Surprised By What The Group Looks Like
For most fans, the identities of the Wyatt Sicks members were already known. Each wrestler had a prior run in WWE before returning under this new faction. Their recent actions on Raw solidified their status as a dominant heel group, but the viral Whataburger photo added an unexpected twist to their story.
This incident raises interesting questions about the balance between maintaining kayfabe and the modern reality of social media, where behind-the-scenes moments are often shared instantly. Should the group have posed for the photo? Or, would they have been better served to leave some aura of mystery following their debut just hours earlier? Despite the mixed reactions, the Wyatt Sicks' Whataburger outing has certainly kept them in the spotlight, generating buzz and conversation among wrestling fans.
