PW Insider reported that Alexa Bliss is set for the May 9 episode of WWE SmackDown. Fans took that news and ran wild with speculation that her expected involvement with The Wyatt Sicks was bound to begin soon.
PWInsider reported that Bliss is scheduled to be on at the SmackDown taping, however it is unknown whether she will appear on the show. It was stated that “she’s not there for no reason” leading to the speculation that this will lead to her angle with The Wyatts.
Alexa Bliss has been off television for weeks. Her last match was the Elimination Chamber on March 1. Since then, fans have openly wondered why she isn’t on television. It was especially frustrating to them when her return at the Royal Rumble was one of the biggest moments of the year. As of this writing, her return in January has more than two million views on YouTube.
One of the reasons she’s been off television is because of the creative around the Wyatt Sicks. The entire group was removed from television when Bo Dallas was injured. However, reports came out that Dallas was cleared back in March. However, due to the proximity of WrestleMania 41, Bliss and the group were kept off television until after the PLE. Now it seems like the angle is ready to kick off.
Alexa Bliss in the Wyatt Sicks has potential to be a big story
Alexa Bliss has been one of the most popular women on the main roster since her debut back in 2016. Even with the overall negative reaction to much of her creative with Bray Wyatt, Bliss remained over with the fanbase. When she stepped away to start a family, rumors of her return would pop up every year, until they finally came true during the 2025 Royal Rumble.
The Wyatt Sicks started off hot but quickly lost momentum before being moved to SmackDown. They are an act that doesn’t quite fit in the sports presentation of WWE, however fans are still interested in their involvement. Fans are intrigued with the idea of Bliss leading the faction and the group paying homage to Wyatt’s legacy in the WWE.
Alexa Bliss’s return remains one of the biggest questions heading into WWE SmackDown. Reports are that she is on location, and that has caused fans to hope they will get to see her on television and be pushed into a major angle.
