Since the Bray Wyatt documentary video this year, the WWE has made it clear they want to continue the fallen star’s legacy via Uncle Howdy’s character. The mysterious enigma appeared alongside Wyatt as a tormented part of him. Fans were intrigued with the supernatural element and wanted to know where the storyline could be headed. Now, the WWE has plans on resuming or starting a new chapter for the character with a slow build. But will he be coming alone?

How Uncle Howdy could tie into Broken Matt Hardy

As mentioned above, Matt Hardy’s involvement in this storyline pleasantly surprised the fans. Since his contract ended with AEW, Hardy has been silent on his next move. However, after RAW ended, Hardy posted a status on social media with the segment featuring the QR code. This intrigued fans, as he never posted anything about the current WWE product.
