In the wake of the heart-wrenching passing of his brother, Bray Wyatt, it appears that Bo Dallas, known in WWE as Uncle Howdy, may have reached the end of his journey with the company. This backstage update sheds light on the situation.
Dave Meltzer, a reputable source in the world of professional wrestling, revealed on Wrestling Observer Radio that Bo Dallas’s return to WWE was inextricably tied to his portrayal of the Uncle Howdy character alongside his beloved sibling. It was a gesture of goodwill, a personal favor to Bray, as Meltzer aptly described it. While it remains within the realm of possibility for WWE to rekindle their collaboration with Bo, it is not the expectation.
Where is former WWE Superstar Bo Dallas (Uncle Howdy) now?
The tale of Bo Dallas’s WWE tenure has seen its share of ups and downs. He was initially released from the company back in April 2021, following an extended period of inactivity. However, fate had other plans as WWE brought him back into the fold, assigning him the role of Uncle Howdy in October 2022, as Bray Wyatt made his triumphant return.
Bo Dallas’s portrayal of this character was integral to Bray’s storylines, even culminating in a jaw-dropping elbow drop from a lighting rig during the intense Royal Rumble 2023’s Pitch Black match against LA Knight.
One notable detail is that WWE did not include Bo Dallas in any in-ring competitions during his stint as Uncle Howdy, signifying that he has not officially graced the squared circle himself since November 2019.
The passing of Bray Wyatt, a gifted and beloved WWE talent, sent shockwaves throughout the wrestling community. At a tender age of 36, Wyatt left this world on the 24th of August. The announcement of this tragic loss was made by WWE’s Chief Content Officer, Paul ‘Triple H’ Levesque, who was the bearer of the grievous news after a poignant conversation with Mike Rotunda, the father of Wyatt and Dallas.
In light of these somber events, Bo Dallas’s WWE future appears uncertain, as he navigates the challenging road ahead without his beloved brother, Bray Wyatt, by his side.
