Bo Dallas gives behind the scenes details about his Wyatt Sicks character
Bo Dallas recently opened up about portraying the character of Uncle Howdy, the leader of the Wyatt Sicks on WWE television. The mysterious faction has been targeting The Miz and Karrion Kross in recent weeks on WWE RAW.
Speaking on the HEADLOCK wrestling podcast, Bo Dallas discussed what it was like to portray Uncle Howdy. The former Tag Team Champion shared that he became a different person while performing in front of the WWE Universe.
"When I go out, I believe in it so much that I'm not even the same person when I'm out there. I'm more Uncle Howdy than I am Bo Dallas than I am Taylor Rotunda. If you were to have a conversation with me out there, it wouldn't be the same person that you're talking to right now," he said.
The veteran also noted that he needed some time after his brother, Bray Wyatt, tragically passed away last August. However, Bo Dallas noted that it feels like his brother gives him the strength to go out and perform as the leader of the Wyatt Sicks.
"When he [Bray Wyatt] did pass, obviously I needed some time. But as that was going away or I was working through that, I knew I had to come back for him. Obviously all that was going on in my mind. endless thoughts. Can I do this? What's this going to be like? But on that night and every night since when I hear that music and I feel like he's with me. I really do. Any doubts or fear, I like change. It's like he gives me the strength to do it. It's more strength than I've ever had in any other instance in wrestling," Bo Dallas said. [H/T: Fightful]

Karrion Kross sent a message to the Wyatt Sicks faction following attack on WWE RAW
The Final Testament's Karrion Kross delivered a warning to the Wyatt Sicks following their attack last week on WWE RAW.
The Miz and The Final Testament attacked R-Truth last week following The Authors of Pain's loss to The New Day. The Wyatt Sicks eventually made the save, and Uncle Howdy locked in the Mandible Claw on Paul Ellering.
Kross cut a promo in the parking lot following last week's WWE RAW and claimed that The Final Testament did not fear Uncle Howdy's faction.
"Wyatt Sicks! Big surprise, I knew you were coming. You practically telegraphed it on social media! You know, I don't care who you were going for Bo (Uncle Howdy), whether it was Miz or it actually was Paul Ellering. But tonight, you got the wrong guy! Your greatest advantage over everybody is that they are so afraid of you. But guess what, we're not afraid, we're p*ssed!" Karrion Kross said.
Uncle Howdy defeated Chad Gable in a singles match on the August 26 episode of WWE RAW. It will be interesting to see how The Final Testament and The Miz attempt to get revenge on The Wyatt Sicks moving forward.
