Report: Identity Of Uncle Howdy Possibly Revealed
A major clue regarding the identity of WWE's mysterious masked figure.
Jan 10, 2023
Last night's WWE Raw saw Uncle Howdy make an appearance, although his identity was still kept a secret. However, a report from Fightful Select contains a potential major clue as to the identity of the figure. Reporting on Raw's plans before the show began, it states:
"Fightful has been told by several within the industry that Bo Dallas is expected to be around more than just tonight within WWE."
These reports often reveal notable names planned to be backstage for the show, often without necessarily appearing onscreen. However, the inclusion of Dallas' name in such a report coupled with the idea that he could be around longer than usual - as well as the subsequent on-screen appearance of Howdy - surely suggests that he is the man behind the mask.
Theories regarding Dallas being Uncle Howdy have been around since almost the beginning of the storyline, given the fact that he and Bray Wyatt are brothers, and that Dallas was a key figure in the emergence of NXT as a third brand in WWE, one under Triple H's creative direction at the time.
