Matt Hardy Teases TNA’s Syx Faction Could Expand Beyond Current Members

TNA Wrestling’s mysterious Syx faction may not be finished growing.

While the group currently consists of Joseph Sawyer and Samuel Shaw, recent comments from Matt Hardy suggest that additional members could eventually be added as the storyline continues to unfold.

Speaking on a recent episode of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, Hardy discussed the arrival of Sawyer and Shaw in TNA following their time in WWE. He praised both performers for bringing name recognition and credibility to the promotion while also carrying forward elements of the supernatural presentation that made Bray Wyatt’s creative projects so memorable.

Hardy was particularly complimentary of Sawyer, describing him as a versatile performer capable of excelling in multiple wrestling styles.

The conversation eventually shifted to speculation about whether Bo Dallas could join the faction in the future. While Hardy did not confirm any plans involving Dallas, he hinted that the group’s name itself may provide a clue about where the angle is heading.

Hardy pointed out that the faction is called “Syx,” questioning why TNA would choose that name if the intention was only to feature two members rather than six.

The comment has fueled speculation that TNA could be planning to expand the group in the months ahead. Whether that includes Dallas or other former members associated with WWE’s Wyatt Sicks remains unclear, as Hardy stopped short of naming any potential additions.

For now, Syx remains one of TNA’s most intriguing developing storylines. However, Hardy’s remarks suggest the current lineup may only be the beginning, with more members potentially waiting in the wings as the faction evolves.

Joseph Sawyer & Samuel Shaw (FKA Joe Gacy & Dexter Lumis) Arrive On TNA Impact

Joseph Sawyer and Samuel Shaw, known to WWE fans as Joe Gacy and Dexter Lumis, made their arrival on last night’s live episode of TNA Thursday Night iMPACT! on AMC.

The reveal came after several weeks of mystery attacks backstage, including an assault on Jeff Hardy. Determined to uncover who was responsible, Matt Hardy continued investigating the incidents. Last week’s episode established that two individuals were behind the attacks, setting the stage for this week’s confrontation.

With Jeff Hardy back by his side, The Hardys came to the ring and called out the attackers. Moments later, the arena lights flickered and a fight broke out. When the lights came back on, two masked men were standing over Matt and Jeff.

The pair then removed their masks and were revealed to be Sawyer and Shaw.

Adding to the debut, the Titantron displayed the name “Syx,” seemingly introducing a new identity for the duo while also nodding to their time as members of the Wyatt Sicks faction in WWE.

Shaw also debuted a different appearance, sporting short hair and a mustache reminiscent of his pre-Wyatt Sicks look.

The arrival marks a return to familiar territory for Shaw, who previously competed in TNA under the Samuel Shaw name. For Sawyer, however, the appearance represents his first run with the promotion.

With the mystery attackers now revealed, TNA has added another notable team to its roster and placed them immediately in the orbit of The Hardys.

Report: TNA Showing Interest In Multiple Former Wyatt Sicks Members

TNA Wrestling is reportedly exploring the possibility of adding several former WWE stars to its roster.

According to The Takedown on SI, the promotion has expressed serious interest in multiple former members of the Wyatt Sicks faction, though it remains unclear whether any deals have been finalized.

The report indicates that talents linked to TNA’s interest include Taylor Rotunda (Uncle Howdy), Joseph Sawyer (Joe Gacy), Samuel Shaw (Dexter Lumis), and Erick Redbeard (Erick Rowan). However, it has not been confirmed which, if any, of those names are actively being pursued.

Any additions from that group would provide an immediate boost to TNA’s roster, particularly its tag team division. Sources cited in the report noted there is optimism within the company about the impact former Wyatt Sicks members could have if agreements are reached.

The Wyatt Sicks became one of WWE’s most talked-about acts following their debut as a tribute to the late Bray Wyatt. Since the group’s reported departures from WWE, speculation has continued regarding where its members might surface next.

For now, TNA’s reported interest appears to be just that—interest. No signings have been confirmed, but the situation is one to watch as the promotion continues evaluating potential additions to its roster.
