Fans were left in awe following Monday's debut of the new Uncle Howdy-led group at the end of Raw, and Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select provided some backstage updates on the intriguing new act.

He noted that the team has not yet been named on WWE TV deliberately.

Sapp wrote: "Even though the group isn't likely to interact with every program on Raw, it's expected within the company that the ramifications will be widespread across various programs, with a domino effect on stories that are happening up and down the show.

"Those we spoke to said that the wide array of talent and people attacked in the story, and the characters who 'left' before the show were calculated, planned and designed for specific reasons."

`Considering the attention to detail prevalent in all of the QR Code clips, it is not surprising that WWE officials would have filmed certain exits from the arena by design to keep them from interacting with the new group.

We saw Otis, Maxxine Dupri and Akira Tozawa leave earlier in the night, followed by Drew McIntyre after abruptly quitting in the show's third hour.

Considering Chad Gable was the most prominent victim of the new group, the first set of departures makes sense. Why the Scot was booked to leave the way he did will bear watching in the coming weeks and months.

Finally, Sapp reiterated his initial report that there would be no supernatural elements to this faction, with one source telling him "You can't beat ghosts with wrestling moves."

That will be a welcome change as one of the biggest issues facing the late Bray Wyatt and his Fiend persona was how it translated to the ring and actual matches.

There are still plenty of questions surrounding Uncle Howdy and Co., officially referred to by WWE Shop and the company's social media as the Wyatt 6 (or Wyatt Sicks), and that is what makes it so intriguing and fun.

If nothing else, Monday's show-closing angle was an excellent cliffhanger and should generate buzz for the upcoming week of television at least.
