Uncle Howdy and Former Champion Potential Royal Rumble Confrontation Explored

The Wyatt Sicks completed their move to SmackDown from RAW, with their last match occurring against The Final Testament in December. During that contest, The Final Testament handed the Wyatts their first defeat since debuting on RAW.

A potential confrontation between Uncle Howdy and Karrion Kross could materialize at the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble match. Both competitors are expected to participate in the 30-man battle royal, though neither has officially declared their entry.

The possibility stems from their previous rivalry on RAW, where the Wyatt Sicks targeted Scarlett, Kross’s wife, in a backstage attack. This unresolved situation, combined with The Final Testament’s victory over the Wyatts, creates potential for Uncle Howdy to eliminate Kross from the Royal Rumble match.

The 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble match continues to add participants each week. Should both Uncle Howdy and Kross officially enter, their confrontation could lead to a match at WrestleMania 41, extending their rivalry from RAW to WWE’s premier event.
