Okay, so I finally got around to really digging into this whole Uncle Howdy situation on Raw this past week. It’s been brewing for ages, right? Felt like forever.
My Monday Night Ritual
So there I was, usual routine. Grabbed some snacks, settled in for Raw. You hear the whispers, the online chatter, people wondering when this group, the Wyatt Sicks or whatever they’re calling them now, would finally show up. Honestly, I was half expecting another cryptic video package, maybe just a flicker of the lights. Been burned before, you know?
Then It Actually Happened
Things were going along, standard Raw stuff. Then, boom. The whole vibe changed. Lights started glitching, that creepy music hit. You just knew something was up. I sat up straight, stopped messing with my phone. The way they did it, backstage first, finding folks laid out… that was pretty effective, gotta admit. It wasn’t just a spooky entrance; it felt like an invasion.
Then they hit the main stage area. The figures, the masks… it was chaos. Each one seemed distinct. Saw the Rabbit mask, the Pig, that creepy doll thing, and Howdy himself right there. They weren’t just standing there posing; they left a mark, laid out Chad Gable. Total chaos.
Trying to Piece It Together
After the show went off the air, I just sat there for a bit. Rewound the DVR a couple of times. Tried to catch all the details.
- The way they moved.
- The specific people targeted (or found).
- The final image with Howdy holding the lantern.
It was a lot to take in. Didn’t feel like the old Wyatt Family, not exactly. This felt… darker? More unhinged, maybe. Spent some time just thinking about the symbolism, the different characters. Who represents what? What’s the actual goal here?
You see all sorts of theories flying around, but watching it unfold live, the main thing I felt was genuine surprise and a bit of that old-school intrigue. They managed to create a moment that actually felt unpredictable, which isn’t always easy these days.
So, What Now?
Honestly? I’m hooked. For now. They made a big splash. Big one. The execution was solid, felt impactful. The real test is the follow-up. Can they keep this momentum? Can they tell a compelling story with these characters? That’s the million-dollar question.
It was a strong visual, a strong statement. But we’ve seen strong starts fizzle before. My practical side says wait and see. But yeah, they definitely got my attention Monday night. Felt like something big just kicked off. We’ll see where it goes. Definitely watching next week.
