History
Formation
After the return of Bray Wyatt at Extreme Rules, he was accompanied by a manager who Wyatt identified as "Uncle Howdy".
Wyatt began feuding with LA Knight shortly thereafter, which led to a match at the Royal Rumble. After Wyatt's victory, Uncle Howdy performed a diving splash on LA Knight. After the end of his feud with Knight, Wyatt began a storyline with Bobby Lashley heading to WrestleMania 39, but Wyatt quietly disappeared from television afterward and his storyline with Lashley was dropped, with reports later indicating that it was due to Wyatt dealing with a real-life illness. On August 19, 2023, it was reported that after battling a life-threatening illness since February, Wyatt was closing in on a return. However, just five days later on August 24, it was announced that Wyatt had died unexpectedly at the age of 36. After Wyatt's death, Uncle Howdy was removed from WWE programming and storylines.
At the beginning of 2024, WWE began airing short vignettes at live events and during commercial breaks of televised shows, while QR codes were also hidden in various locations on episodes of Raw and SmackDown. Each code led to websites containing imagery, minigames, and riddles that vaguely referenced the return of Uncle Howdy.
At the end of the June 17, 2024, episode of Raw, The Wyatt Sicks made their debut. They attacked numerous WWE backstage staff, as well as wrestler Chad Gable.
