PWInsider reports that Uncle Howdy, leader of Wyatt Sicks, has been removed from WWE programming for undisclosed reasons. Recent developments on SmackDown suggest potential changes to this situation, as subtle hints of his return have begun to surface.
The timing of these developments coincides with Goldberg’s announced final WWE match. The WCW legend’s retirement plans were initially connected to a confrontation with Gunther at 2024 Bad Blood. However, this direction shifted after 2025 Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso selected the World Heavyweight Champion as his WrestleMania 41 opponent.
The historical connection between the Wyatt family and Goldberg traces back to Super ShowDown 2020, where Goldberg defeated The Fiend Bray Wyatt for the championship. Current storyline developments suggest this past encounter could provide the foundation for Uncle Howdy’s return, potentially leading to a retirement match at WrestleMania 41.
The possibility exists for Bo Dallas to incorporate The Fiend character into this narrative, creating a meaningful conclusion to Goldberg’s 57-year legacy while establishing a significant rivalry for The Wyatt Sicks faction.
