SUMMARY
- Bo Dallas is a talented pro-wrestler who has lived under the shadow of his late brother, Bray Wyatt.
- The Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn voiced his support for Dallas' abilities.
Bo Dallas made headlines for his mega return following his brother Bray Wyatt’s unfortunate passing. Dallas has been one of the constants for WWE over the years and has been working in the promotion since 2008. Fans have always talked about how badly WWE booked Dallas and how he always deserved more. The Intercontinental Champion Sami Zayn seems to think the same.
Sami Zayn, who has been another underdog during his initial years in the company, has risen to the top of the mountain. His story has been like no other as Zayn has had a lot of setbacks throughout his journey to become a fan favorite and a certified star. In recent years, Sami has proved to everyone how good he is in the ring and on the microphone with his dramatic promos.
Sami faced a lot of hate from the fans during his journey but he kept going on and was utilized by the company. The Intercontinental Champion doesn’t think the same treatment was given to Bo Dallas during his time in the company. “I’ve always thought Bo Dallas was really, really, really, really good and never really got his chance to really spread his wings and fly”, said Zayn.

This isn’t the first time Sami has talked about the potential of Bo Dallas and how he is underrated. While giving another interview in 2021, Sami also pointed out Dallas as one of the the most talented people who wasn’t being used by the company.
From NXT champion to underutilized: The disappointing journey of Bo Dallas in WWE
Being in the promotion since 2008, Dallas has seen it all during his time in the company but never was in the spotlight. He was a part of WWE’s then-developmental FCW (Florida Championship Wrestling) and then came to NXT in 2012. By 2013, he was the NXT Champion and was a massive heel during that time. He gave phenomenal performances and was seen as a rising star.
Upon his arrival on the main roster, Dallas didn’t live up to the hype and was a disappointment. He was portrayed as a face but wasn’t receiving the reactions he expected from the crowd. Dallas further aligned himself with several superstars and formed a faction named ‘Social Outcasts’. The faction didn’t work out as it was expected to be and eventually was disbanded.

Moving further, he aligned himself with Curtis Axel and formed ‘The B-Team’. They then worked for The Miz at the time and were together in a tag team called ‘The Miztourage’. Dallas then further returned as Uncle Howdy along with his brother Bray Wyatt. However, things didn’t go as planned as Wyatt unfortunately passed away in 2023 leaving their storyline incomplete.
Various Glitches on SmackDown and RAW might provide Bo Dallas the perfect reboot
After WrestleMania 40, WWE is resetting a lot of the deck, which might introduce a completely new plot.
Something intriguing happened during Bronson Reed‘s RAW promo following WrestleMania. There was an intentional glitch that showed up on the screen. Many also think that Alexa Bliss might be involved with Bo Dallas in these glitches and hints.
Production errors such as these are not random occurrences; rather, they are most likely planned as a part of the event, thus it looks like WWE is hinting at something. Unusual footage from a recent SmackDown show in Detroit, Michigan, seems to confirm the enigmatic hints regarding Bo Dallas’s possible comeback. Several messages and glitches are proving to be surprising for the fans.
While Marti Amado’s eerie song “Nightbird” was playing, the audience’s attention was drawn to a strange visual phenomenon. Another such technical issue occurred when Chelsea Green & Piper Niven faced off against Bianca Belair & Jade Cargill in a tag match. Despite its brief appearance, the message “You forgot about us” was visible to keen-eyed followers.
This is a truly fascinating situation given the possibility that WWE would use Bo Dallas once more and the fact that the documentary Bray Wyatt: Becoming Immortal ended with what appears to be a tease for Uncle Howdy’s comeback. Only time will tell that along with Bo Dallas, who all might be the other members of this creepy faction.
