Folks, buckle up! WWE has done it again, dragging us down another digital rabbit hole with their latest QR code adventure. This time, it’s Wyatt-themed, and if you’re not already lost in the labyrinth of Uncle Howdy’s mind games, you soon will be. As the Chad Gable vs. Sami Zayn showdown on Monday’s “WWE Raw” hit a commercial break, an all-too-familiar QR code blinked onto our screens, right next to that newspaper clipping about a missing therapist. Yeah, the one penned by “Wendy Lucho,” which is just “Uncle Howdy” in disguise. Sneaky, sneaky!
Scanning this QR code whisks you off to wwe.com/ecgpramstor. Pro tip: Rearrange those letters to get “spectrogram”—it’ll save you some head-scratching later. The site greets you with a friendly “hello” before hitting you with a survey that feels like it was written by your therapist and your creepy neighbor working together. The questions go something like this:
- Can you ever truly be free?
- Have you ever lost your way?
- Did you find your way back?
- Do you want to be better?
- Do you know that I’m proud of you?
- Is love unconditional?
- Have they been set free?
- Do you believe?
- Do you want to meet them?
Answer “correctly” (whatever that means), and you get the cryptic message “soon.” Below this are 10 clickable, blank boxes leading to even more madness. One box gives you a cipher revealing, “A puppet is free as long as he loves his strings.” Charming. Other boxes include audio files that, when decoded through a spectrogram, show “ICU2” saying “hello,” the upside-down moth logo from Bray Wyatt/Wyatt 6, and Uncle Howdy’s haunting face.
And if that wasn’t enough to make your head spin, the links get even weirder. One directs you to a bizarre newspaper article about a “cruel and evil experiment” from 1965, involving two people setting records for time spent alone in a cave. The article ominously states, “I saved them,” and “I must give them the opportunity to repent.” There’s even a nod to Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, because why not get philosophical?
Other clues include a notebook paper with “LIAR LIAR” scribbled out, a hint at another WhatsApp clue dropping Wednesday, a mysterious veiled woman, and coordinates pointing to Glassboro, New Jersey, home of Rowan University. This likely hints at a return of Erick Rowan, a former Wyatt Family member. There’s even a scribbled note showing “WENDY LUCHO” with tick marks in each letter, revealing the anagram in progress.
To cap it all off, WWE Shop has released two new shirts labeled “Cavebird 1” and “Cavebird 2.” Just what every fan needs: a fashion statement that says, “I’m lost in the Wyattverse, and loving it.”
