Rick and Morty prefers starting with an existing title and then cramming one (or more) of the character's names in, whether it makes sense or not, and sometimes avoiding a more reasonable mutation for one that's nonsense. In this case, if they really wanted to use this title, I'd expect them to end up with something like "The Rick of Khan" purely so they could match the R sound on "wrath" and the dual consonants at the end of the word.
Extreme, real example of this pattern from the current season: "Mort Dinner Rick Andre". They've turned it into grammatical nonsense so they can make some very tenuous word-sound connections (especially on "with" -> "rick"—it's there, but wow, that's a stretch)
