On Monday Night Raw after Clash at the Castle, Uncle Howdy finally made his return while four more members of the Wyatt 6 also debuted alongside in the same segment. While the much-awaited debut earned a lot of applause from the WWE faithful, now the question revolves around their plans and intentions. Bo Dallas and the other Wyatt 6 members have exercised silence about their next appearance in the ring. However, it seems that they provided fans with some clues via the viral VHS tape.

One week after the Wyatt 6 debut, the fans saw Nikki Cross show up in the ring after Chad Gable had just won the qualification round for the approaching Money in the Bank ladder match. Cross was there on a mission as she picked up a box from the ringside and handed it over to Michael Cole before disappearing into the crowd.

The box was addressed to Pat McAfee. In his absence, Cole accepted the package, opened it to find a VHS tape, and handed it over to the production crew. Several minutes later, the production crew played the VHS tape for the audience watching the show.

It was a video of Bo Dallas, sitting across Uncle Howdy, talking about how he felt after losing his brother, Bray Wyatt, from his life. The emotional and cinematic segment also contained some interesting details.

The VHS tape wasn’t free of glitches, which is a staple of the Wyatt 6 storyline. One account on X uploaded the images that they thought were interesting and left them for the rest of the internet wrestling community to solve.

Fans flock together to decipher Uncle Howdy’s secret messages

As the post went viral, many people came up with their own assumptions regarding the secret message of Uncle Howdy and his faction members. The numbers 25 and 28 shown in red in two of the screenshots have confused many fans. Mere numbers don’t make complete sense to fans as they are harder to decode. However, the Wyatt 6 takes these small hints seriously and often hides important details in them that can be decoded ahead of the event that is yet to arrive just like their return date and venue details.

Poll of the day

Do you think the mysterious countdown in Uncle Howdy’s VHS tapes adds excitement to WWE storylines?

Absolutely

Not really

It’s confusing

Could be better

It looks like the account that started with confusion, finally figured out the meaning behind these numbers. 25th will fall on Tuesday while the 28th will be on the coming Friday. If these numbers mean something, which they probably do, then we might see the Wyatt 6 appearing on both NXT and SmackDown in MSG this week.

Another account replied to the previous one, helping them out in decoding the potential hint that the paranormal stable may be trying to provide ahead of two more attacks. Since the dates collide with both WWE shows, there is a high possibility that the stable is likely warning the roster ahead of their return.

 

Yet some social media users agree with the possibility of something new popping up on NXT and SmackDown this week. The stable is unlikely to sign with any of the brands because they are typically not ‘wrestlers’ in the storyline but rather supernatural entities, or at least portraying themselves this way. So, they could make their presence known regardless of brand affiliation.

Some viewers noticed something different that the account didn’t post about. They have mentioned that the countdown included the numbers 22 and 29 as well. While 22nd June has already passed, the latter will fall on the coming Saturday. So, if this fan saw it correctly, and it is meant to be a teaser, then this could be something that Uncle Howdy and his crew are planning ahead of time because these two dates will be the last two Monday Night Raw episodes in July.
