The buzz surrounding Uncle Howdy didn’t stop or waver once this week’s episode of WWE Monday Night RAW went off the air. In the show’s main event, Howdy defeated Chad Gable in the dark character’s in-ring debut. This match comes close to two years after Howdy was first introduced on WWE TV as part of Bray Wyatt’s 2022 return to the promotion. This was Bo Dallas’ first match in WWE since November 13, 2019, when he was part of a tag-team match that ironically also included Gable.
After his victory over Gable and once the cameras stopped rolling, Howdy remained in the ring and struck poses associated with his late brother. The crowd played their part, as they shone the ‘fireflies’ associated with Wyatt. As Howdy made his way to the entrance, he raised one hand, clearly in memory of the former WWE World Champion.
