At the recent WWE x AAA cross-promotional event, Worlds Collide, the WWE Tag Team Champions, The Wyatt Sicks, launched a shocking and brutal attack on AAA World Tag Team Champions Psycho Clown and Pagano immediately after they successfully defended their titles. This marked a significant escalation in tensions between WWE and AAA talent and reinforced the Wyatt Sicks’ status as dominant and ruthless competitors in the tag team division.
Post-Match Chaos Erupts at Worlds Collide
The chaos unfolded right after the AAA World Tag Team Championship match, where Psycho Clown and Pagano retained their titles against the makeshift team of WWE’s Kofi Kingston and Grayson Waller. Initially, Kingston was supposed to team with Xavier Woods, but Woods was sidelined following head surgery due to an injury sustained by Penta’s notorious “Mexican Destroyer” move. Despite the injury, Woods was ringside to support Kingston and Waller, showing remarkable dedication with a heartfelt pre-match statement emphasizing they intended to win the titles even in his absence.
After the victorious AAA duo had completed a post-match interview, the arena lights suddenly went black. When the lights returned, the full Wyatt Sicks faction—including Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, Nikki Cross, Erick Rowan, and the eerie Uncle Howdy—descended violently upon Psycho Clown and Pagano. The assault was fierce and unrelenting: Lumis executed a top-rope senton driving Pagano through a table, and Gacy with Rowan followed by putting Psycho Clown through another table. The segment concluded with Uncle Howdy delivering his signature Sister Abigail on Pagano, leaving both AAA stars incapacitated in the ring.
The Wyatt Sicks then stood tall, hoisting both the WWE and AAA World Tag Team titles in a dramatic declaration of their dominance and intent to conquer beyond WWE’s borders[1][2][7].
The Wyatt Sicks: WWE’s New Tag Division Overlords
Since their return to WWE in May 2025, the Wyatt Sicks have become an unstoppable force in the SmackDown tag team division. Their ruthlessness has disrupted the momentum of top teams such as the Street Profits, Fraxiom, and Andrade & Rey Fenix. Their win over the Street Profits ended a 119-day reign and reinforced their standing as the #1 contenders and reigning WWE Tag Team Champions.
Their appearance at Worlds Collide signals a major shift in strategy—targeting international titles to cement their supremacy across promotions. A WWE insider noted, “The Wyatt Sicks are setting their sights on holding all the tag gold, and invading AAA was an obvious next move. They want everyone to know there’s no safe haven, not even across the border in Mexico”[4].
Impact on the WWE and AAA Relationship
This aggressive gesture underscores the intensity and high stakes of the WWE-AAA partnership. Worlds Collide, designed to showcase talent and build bridges between the promotions, instead witnessed a raw display of territorial dominance. AAA’s champions were not only physically dominated but also symbolically challenged by the Wyatts’ mocking display of the belts.
For AAA, the attack presents a storyline opportunity to rally their stars around defending Lucha Libre pride against WWE’s encroaching force. Psycho Clown and Pagano, fan favorites in AAA, can be expected to seek retribution in rematches or multi-promotional events to restore honor.
What This Means for WWE’s Tag Team Landscape
The Wyatt Sicks’ attack at Worlds Collide indicates WWE’s long-term plan to create inter-brand storylines, blending WWE’s homegrown talents with explosive moments involving international companies. The faction’s violent tactics boost their heel credentials and establish them as dominating champions not just within WWE but on a global stage.
With Xavier Woods having recently recovered from a serious head injury and unavailable to defend alongside Kingston, WWE’s tag division has faced challenges. However, the presence of new partners like Grayson Waller and the Wyatt Sicks’ willingness to invade AAA spotlight a dynamic and unpredictable tag team scene going forward.
Fan Reactions and Expectations
Fans have widely praised The Wyatt Sicks for their compelling combination of eerie charisma and physical dominance. The international attack angle is seen as a fresh wrinkle in WWE storytelling. Social media reactions highlighted the “scary but captivating” vibe surrounding Uncle Howdy and the faction as a whole, raising anticipation for upcoming cross-promotional rivalries.
One wrestling analyst shared, “The Wyatts did exactly what they were brought back to do—shake things up and make noise, not just in WWE but across the wrestling world. Attacking AAA’s top tag champs immediately puts everyone on notice”[1][4].
What’s Next?
The attack leaves several questions unanswered: Will The Wyatt Sicks try to capture the AAA World Tag Team Championships officially? How will AAA’s management respond to this brazen assault? Can Psycho Clown and Pagano recover and rally to reclaim their dominance?
It’s likely WWE will continue to integrate these cross-promotional storylines, using Worlds Collide as a launching pad for future encounters between the two tag team factions. Both companies could capitalize on fan interest by staging rematches in high-stakes environments, possibly culminating in WWE pay-per-view or AAA marquee events.
Final Thoughts
The Wyatt Sicks’ ruthless attack on Psycho Clown and Pagano after the Worlds Collide title match was a memorable and striking moment, showing the faction’s intent to expand their influence aggressively. As WWE continues to push boundary-pushing storylines and foster inter-promotional relationships, fans can expect more explosive incidents like this, redefining the tag team divisions worldwide.
The wrestling world will be watching closely to see how the AAA champs respond and whether The Wyatt Sicks can hold multiple world tag team championships simultaneously, solidifying their legacy as the most dominant tag team faction in recent memory.
