Uncle Howdy’s return has been teased for weeks
Bray Wyatt was one of the creative masterminds, who sketched a number of gimmicks to life in his creative storyline including “The Fiend”, “Eater of the World”, “Firefly Funhouse”, “Uncle Howdy”, “Sister Abigail” and so on. After Wyatt’s unfortunate demise, it was reported that his creatives are still on the desk and Bo Dallas will be taking over with his Uncle Howdy’s role.
After months of rumors, WWE has started teasing Uncle Howdy’s return with glitches and QR Codes on Television in recent weeks. There have been a number of hints, speculations and rumors around the internet regarding the return. Here we take a look at everything we know about Uncle Howdy’s return so far.
Who will be part of the Uncle Howdy Faction
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, the planned members of the Uncle Howdy faction include Bo Dallas, Nikki Cross, Dexter Lumis, Joe Gacy & Erick Rowan. However there isn’t any update on Alexa Bliss’ involvement, who acted as Sister Abigail in the past.
Analyzing the backstory it seems like every mentioned member of the faction comes from different broken faction from their past, after which they were forgotten on the go. Dexter Lumis was abandoned and forgotten by ‘The Way’, Nikki Cross lost her faction ‘Sanity’, Joe Gacy lost his faction ‘Schism’ and Erick Rowan from the ‘Wyatt Family’.
Bray Wyatt during his final return said that he was broken and Uncle Howdy was the one who opened his arms. In the same way, the faction would have formed with abandoned ones. The QR Code also states a quote referencing it saying, “All we ever wanted was a chance”.
The report hasn’t revealed the exact date of their faction’s debut, or whether they will be adopting any monikers. It is important to note that Erick Rowan has recently signed a WWE contract. Along with Uncle Howdy there are 6 members, which also refers to Wyatt6. It is also important to note that last time when Nikki Cross appeared on TV, she was wandering around something.
The recent QR Code took to a PDF document titled “Eukairia”, which is a Greek word referencing “timeless” or “opportunity”. Inside the PDF a hidden message was made in a form of a puzzle, where a fan decoded it saying “You know nothing. Hell is only a word Reality is much more worse”
When will Uncle Howdy Return?
WWE fans based on the glitches decoded ‘V_XXV’ from the QR Code, which was reference to the date May 25, when King & Queen of the Ring is taking place in Saudi Arabia. It is also the birthday of Bo Dallas ‘Uncle Howdy’. Considering that fans predict that Uncle Howdy is hinting at his return on the Saudi Arabia event.
