We have learned Erick Rowan has signed a deal to rejoin WWE and this could be the start of the rumored Wyatt 6 stable.

When Bray Wyatt returned to WWE, there was so much hype. Fans wanted him back and Triple H made the right call. Unfortunately, Wyatt only worked one match before falling ill. Come last August, he seemed ready to return when awful news broke. Bray had passed away at only 36 years old. He suffered a heart attack while sleeping, which seems have been a factor from his earlier COVID diagnosis. Everyone at the time, and still today, are in shock at the sad news.

Before his final TV appearances, he was working with his brother, Bo Dallas. This time around, Bo was portraying the character known as Uncle Howdy. We never learned what direction WWE was headed with the brothers. Since Bray’s passing, Bo has not appeared on TV. Although, he was in the Bray Wyatt Documentary and the ending hinted at a return to his previous gimmick. Now, we are seeing random QR codes appear on TV, leading many to believe Uncle Howdy is returning. And, he will not be alone as the Wyatt 6 stable could finally become a reality.

Possible Superstars

PW Insider confirmed how Erick Rowan is back in WWE. He was a member of the Wyatt Family before the stable split and then with Luke Harper. Sadly, Harper (going by Brodie Lee in AEW) also passed away. Other names that could fit the rumored group are Matt Hardy, Joe Gacey and Alexa Bliss.

Hardy just departed AEW for TNA, but he not sign an exclusive contract. His Broken gimmick would be a nice touch and he even teamed with Bray for a time. Gacey has been in NXT since it was heavily redone. His character is lost as his followers are gone. Although, he has the perfect persona for Wyatt 6. Bliss was already working with Howdy and Bray before her absence due pregnancy. Still, she could return at anytime now. So, with Erick Rowan returning to WWE, is it a clue that Wyatt 6 is becoming a reality?
