WWE Raw Teases The Return Of Uncle Howdy
The return of Uncle Howdy was teased at several points on last night's WWE Raw.
Following in the footsteps of the tease at the end of the phenomenal, emotional Bray Wyatt: Becoming Immortal documentary, last night's WWE Raw saw what appears to be several further teases for the return of Uncle Howdy/Bo Dallas.
The first of these actually took place prior to Raw going on the air, with the lights at the Wells Fargo Center going off and a song briefly playing. As for that song, X sleuths have already identified it as Nightbird by Marti Amado.

This is the song that played for the audience at #WWERaw potentially preceeding the return of Uncle Howdy

As for another tease, that came during Bronson Reed's backstage promo. As the Thicc Boy was talking, the screen was affected by some strange static, with the word "hello" appearing in the bottom right corner.
I can’t be the only one that noticed the screen flicker… ??
Plus with the ominous music and screens at #WWERAW tonight pre show… ??

This all follows on from a Fightful report last week which noted how Bo Dallas is indeed planning a WWE return. At this stage, it's known what that return would look like, whether it would be as Bo, as Uncle Howdy, as simply Taylor Rotunda, or under some other guise - though it would seem Uncle Howdy is the character the 33-year-old will be returning with.
As alluded to, the end of the Becoming Immortal documentary featured the shadow of Uncle Howdy looming large behind Bray Wyatt's lantern, with fans immediately seeing that as an indicator that Howdy could well be back on WWE screens sooner rather than later.
