2. Another So-So Wyatt Sicks Match

If you feel like you've seen The Street Profits vs. The Wyatt Sicks before, then that's because you have. In fact, you've now seen it happen 4 times in front of the cameras since June. Friday's latest was nothing special. It wasn't even as good as their match at Clash In Paris, and that was hardly some classic to rival Edge and Christian vs. The Hardys.

Here, The Sicks retained their tag titles against Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins with minimal fuss. Sure, the likes of B-FAB and Nikki Cross got involved to add some bells and whistles, but this is the kind of match you could call in the ring yourself. No, this writer isn’t a fan of The Sicks, as you can probably tell.

Being totally fair, the new look MFTS (more on that later) confronting them did get a loud “HOLY S***” chant from the Perth crowd, but nothing else of note happened. Honestly, the sooner we get the belts off Dexter Lumis and Joe Gacy, the better. Their matches are always fairly boring (except SummerSlam's TLC car crash), the supernatural stuff their faction does is rinse and repeat, and their title reign is just going nowhere.

New champs needed. Will it be Tama Tonga and JC Mateo/Talla Tonga/Tonga Loa? That remains to be seen, but maybe they could rescue these titles from the Sicks-imposed purgatory they currently find themselves in. Also, word to Triple H: Please don't book this Wyatts vs. Profits match again in 2025.

Everyone has had their fill of it. Perhaps the only upside here for fans following on social media is that Ford and Dawkins have their old music back. That'd be a theme throughout the night, so to speak.
