WWE has been teasing Uncle Howdy‘s return for a long time now. The promotion started things off during an episode of Friday Night SmackDown using a glitch on the screen. Then it continued in the form of QR codes, hiding cryptic messages. Although we haven’t seen the wrestler return to the squared circle yet, he is expected to arrive with the rest of the Wyatt 6.

The Stamford-based company is taking initiatives to build up and maintain the hype surrounding the supernatural stable. The teases so far have shown that Uncle Howdy is going to be kind to his followers and believers. However, it seems there is another clue regarding his philosophy.

Uncle Howdy believes in seeing the beauty

Taking a step away from the usual QR code teasers, WWE created a page, Archive Recovered, on their website. The latest uploaded message from Uncle Howdy is called “Massacre”. Here, the message reads, “The eye of the storm approaches. It is inevitable. One chance of survival. Instructions to follow.” Here, WWE is trying to create a sense of urgency in the storyline by informing us about the upcoming massacre and asking us to follow the instructions that Uncle Howdy will provide his followers. Another interesting detail on the page is the word “Kintsugi” written on top. A fan on ‘X’ pointed out that the philosophy behind this is that ‘broken things’ don’t need to be disguised, but their beauty should be appreciated as it is.

This is the underlying theme of the Wyatt 6 stable as well. It is about representing the marginalized and the sidelined, giving them a platform and a voice. It seems like it is a clue that will hold utmost importance in the stable moving forward. So when can we see the faction cement their philosophy on WWE programming?

When can we expect Uncle Howdy to debut?

Before ‘King and Queen of the Ring’ PLE, several teases pointed toward the entity appearing in Jeddah for a debut. However, fans didn’t get to witness Uncle Howdy’s glorious return during the show. The teases are evidently going on, pointing toward the fact that WWE is still actively trying to bring the Wyatt 6 back on TV. This new ‘massacre’ message is informing us that the return could be closer than we expect it to be.

WWE will visit Europe once again for ‘Clash At The Castle’ this June. So, we may get to see Wyatt 6 and Uncle Howdy at the PLE or they could also be planning to show up at SummerSlam this year.

What are your thoughts on the underlying themes behind the Wyatt 6? Do you believe it adds value to the stable?
