Fans speculated if Uncle Howdy is related to Bray Wyatt

Uncle Howdy first made their presence known to the WWE Universe on the October 28, 2022, episode of SmackDown. The shocking vignette sent the internet wrestling community into a frenzy, with many jumping to conclusions about the creepy figure’s identity.

According to some fans, Howdy is none other than Barry Windham – the legendary Horseman and Wyatt’s real-life uncle.

There’s another section of WWE loyalists who think the mystical figure is former NXT Champion Bo Dallas.

For those not in the know, Dallas is the real-life brother of Bray Wyatt. The two were a tag team during their FCW days. The Eater of Worlds has also reportedly pushed for WWE to rehire his brother in the past. As of this writing, there are no updates on Bo’s likely return to the Stamford-based promotion.

The person in Howdy’s mask on SmackDown this week also had a beard. It remains to be seen if Triple H will book a revealing angle for the mysterious figure in the foreseeable future.
