The Wyatt Sicks storyline has been developing intriguingly on Monday Night RAW. After Uncle Howdy and his faction members made their debut on the red brand, they have been consistently targeting Chad Gable. Additionally, we have seen some VHS tape segments between Uncle Howdy and Bo Dallas, which have garnered significant attention from the WWE Universe.
With Bo seemingly aligning himself with Howdy, Erick Rowan might be the next target for the masked man.
This speculation arises from a recent post on The Wyatt Sicks' official Twitter (X) account, which featured a picture of Erick Rowan with his face cropped out. The filter on the image suggests it could be similar to the VHS tape segment involving Bo Dallas.

The word "Play" is also written in the top left corner, indicating that if Nikki Cross reappears on the upcoming episode of RAW and delivers a box to Michael Cole, the VHS tape might feature Erick Rowan.
For those who might not know, Erick Rowan is already part of Uncle Howdy's faction, where he cosplays as the Rambling Rabbit. As part of his new gimmick, he also holds a hammer, which many believe is a tribute to the late, great Luke Harper, AKA Brodie Lee.
Why is Uncle Howdy targeting Erick Rowan from The Wyatt Sicks after Bo Dallas?
Bo Dallas was seemingly the first member targeted by Uncle Howdy from The Wyatt Sicks. However, after several VHS tape segments, Bo eventually aligned himself with Uncle Howdy. This suggests that the reason for targeting Erick Rowan next could be to officially convince him to join The Wyatt Sicks.
Once Erick is convinced and decides to side with Uncle Howdy, the WWE Universe could witness more members of the faction being engaged in similar segments. These segments and interviews appear to serve the purpose of showcasing the backstories of all the faction members and the reasons behind their allegiance to the masked man.
Another possible reason for targeting Erick Rowan could be to facilitate his return to WWE as Erick Rowan, rather than just as Rambling Rabbit. For those unaware, Erick was originally released from WWE in 2020. However, he recently returned as Rambling Rabbit with Bo Dallas and The Wyatt Sicks.
By featuring Erick Rowan in these segments, WWE could officially assert the return of Erick to the company. Additionally, these segments will help WWE disclose his real identity, adding depth and intrigue to the storyline.
It will be interesting to see how the narrative unfolds on Monday Night RAW and what will happen when Uncle Howdy targets Erick Rowan next.
