5 WWE Superstars who could hand Uncle Howdy his first defeat
Uncle Howdy returned to WWE on the June 17, 2024, episode of RAW as the leader of The Wyatt Sicks faction. The mysterious group is currently playing mind games with both The Miz and Karrion Kross on the red brand.
The Wyatt Sicks were involved in a rivalry with Chad Gable and American Made. Uncle Howdy defeated Chad Gable in a singles match on the August 26 edition of RAW. It was Uncle Howdy's (Bo Dallas) first match since November 2019. The Wyatt Sicks also defeated American Made in an eight-person Street Fight on the September 9 edition of WWE RAW.
Below are five WWE Superstars who could hand Uncle Howdy his first defeat.
#5. Chad Gable could get his revenge on Uncle Howdy on WWE RAW
Uncle Howdy and The Wyatt Sicks have targeted Chad Gable since their arrival on RAW in June. Gable has claimed that American Made has moved on from their rivalry with the faction, but the star could still want to get revenge on Uncle Howdy down the line.
Gable could demand a rematch against the mysterious figure in the weeks ahead. If the promotion has cooled on pushing The Wyatt Sicks, Gable may be booked to get revenge on Howdy and hand the veteran his first loss.
#4. Braun Strowman could defeat the leader of Wyatt Sicks
Braun Strowman was once a member of The Wyatt Family. Uncle Howdy is portrayed by Bray Wyatt's brother in real life, and the faction may decide to go after the former Universal Champion down the line.
The Monster of All Monsters suffered a torn groin during his match against Bronson Reed on the September 30 edition of the red brand. Strowman could potentially enter into a rivalry with The Wyatt Sicks when he returns to action and he could be a very difficult opponent for Uncle Howdy on RAW.
#3. Seth Rollins could hand the mysterious figure his first loss
Seth Rollins returned from his hiatus on the September 30 episode of WWE RAW and cost Bronson Reed the Last Monster Standing Match against Braun Strowman. Reed brutally attacked The Visionary on the August 5 edition of the Monday Night Show and sent the former World Heavyweight Champion home in an ambulance.
Rollins had his battles with Bray Wyatt in the past and could be a potential target of Uncle Howdy's faction down the line. Howdy could remind Rollins of his past with The Eater of Worlds and challenge him to a match. The 38-year-old has already established himself as one of the best wrestlers and would likely hand Howdy his first loss if the match ever took place.
#2. The 'Demon' Finn Balor could battle Uncle Howdy
The Judgment Day's Finn Balor lost to Damian Priest in a singles match this past Saturday night at WWE Bad Blood. Balor betrayed The Archer of Infamy at SummerSlam, and The Wyatt Sicks may have taken notice. The faction went after Gable after he turned heel and started mistreating Alpha Academy and could be planning to do the same to Balor in the months ahead.
However, Balor could revive his 'Demon' gimmick for a match against Uncle Howdy. The veteran is already a formidable opponent, but if he competes as his alter-ego, it may be too much for Howdy to overcome.
#1. Roman Reigns could return to RAW and defeat Uncle Howdy
WWE signed a massive 10-year deal with Netflix to bring RAW to the streaming platform in January 2025. It was reported earlier this year that Netflix requested Cody Rhodes or Roman Reigns on WWE RAW. The Original Tribal Chief has been feuding with The Bloodline since his return at SummerSlam and teamed up with Cody Rhodes to defeat his former faction this past Saturday night at Bad Blood.
The Wyatt Sicks could take issue with Reigns leaving his former faction behind and attack him if he shows up on WWE RAW on Netflix. The faction could attempt to get under Reigns' skin with cryptic messages about his past, but in the end, it would be The Head of the Table who emerged victorious in a match against Uncle Howdy.
