Is Uncle Howdy's new mask an upgrade or a downgrade? What do you think?

Uncle Howdy stunned the entire world one more time on this week’s Raw, appearing in a drastically different outfit than his normal one. The head of Wyatt Sicks was seeking vengeance, and he came out to attack Chad Gable, who was present in the ring for a promo about what he had done the previous week and what had transpired when the terrifying group invaded the ring.

Uncle Howdy was wearing something completely different, and it appeared to be the new in-ring gear that he would employ in the future for his battles. During this part, we can see that the clothing was similar to Bray Wyatt’s from the past.

Uncle Howdy’s former mask had a more vicious and eerie look. This is normally what he wears in the ring. Furthermore, there were several additional aspects of the sequence that viewers noticed, since WWE may hide even the slightest facts during these sorts of segments.

Uncle Howdy uses a sister Abigail in this week’s Raw

One of the most memorable moments in this segment was when Uncle Howdy hit a big sister Abigail to Chad Gable. This was unexpected because the late Bray Wyatt utilized this maneuver as his finisher, and it appears that his younger brother will continue to carry the legacy of this finisher moving forward.

This is not just a single move, as you may recall that at one point in WWE, there were discussions about using the name of this move on a character who may return after being off for so long. This character was originally scheduled to be played by Alexa Bliss in 2019, but those plans were shelved, and instead of becoming Sister Abigail, she became merely another evil figure alongside Bray Wyatt.

What’s your perspective on:

Have an interesting take?

Uncle Howdy’s use of this maneuver sends a strong indication to everyone, implying that there is a potential that when Alexa Bliss returns, she will ally herself with Uncle Howdy. This pairing of Howdy with The Goddess would be similar to her pairing with Bray Wyatt, which happened a few years ago. Fans need to wait and watch if WWE can pull something like that and maybe there can be a speculation that they are planning to do this and the move was just a hint.
