The WWE Universe was once again given an ominous message via a \'glitch\' as part of the April 12, post-WrestleMania 40 edition of WWE SmackDown.
The glitch occurred during a tag-team match pitting Chelsea Green & Piper Niven against Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill. Though it appeared for a fraction of a second, eagle-eyed fans were able to spot the message \'you forgot about us.\'
This wasn\'t the only bizarre message in store for the fans who attended WWE SmackDown in Detroit. Before the show, eerie music was played, and the video screens displayed the WWE SmackDown logo in black and white.

What Does This Mean?
These incidents at the April 12, episode of WWE SmackDown aren\'t the only bizarre sightings as of late. During the post-WrestleMania 40 edition of Raw, a \'glitch\' during a promo with \'Big\' Bronson Reed bore the message \'hello.\'
The prevailing theory among fans is that this is setting up the return of Uncle Howdy, who was portrayed by Bo Dallas in 2022 and 2023. The character was introduced following Bray Wyatt\'s return at WWE Extreme Rules 2022 but was pulled from TV alongside Wyatt in early 2023. As one fan with a good memory pointed out on Twitter, Howdy previously described himself as \'us\' during a segment.

The \'us\' line has also had fans speculating that Uncle Howdy will not return alone, and that Alexa Bliss\' return to programming may be drawing near. Bliss was once associated with Wyatt but hasn\'t competed in over a year due to pregnancy. The former Women\'s Champion gave birth to daughter Hendrix last year. Before plans were nixed due to Bray\'s illness, there were reported plans for a \'Wyatt 6\' faction that would\'ve included Uncle Howdy.
