Now when I turn it on nothing displays after uninstalling isfshax
I got it to boot up into the Wii U menu and I was using it perfectly fine
I thought I could just delete it and go on my day and play the Wii U nope...

Looking at your original problem: https://www.reddit.com/r/WiiUHacks/comments/1ie8a1x/minute_menu_purple_light_no_display_help/ you probably just had Pretendo enabled while trying to download and update or something. Or maybe some other wrong network setting.

Then you erased the mlc for whatever reason, and probably didn't delete the wafel_setup when the guide told you. Would have been easily fixable by just redoing it and then deleting it at the right time. Maybe the titles you downloaded also weren't complete and the Wii U menu was missing, since the coldboot was still set to the HS app. Installing the Wii U menu would have reset the coldboot to the menu.

The you also had the unlimit mlc plugin (why?) so the mlc was formatted slightly larger than it would without that patch, which would still work, as long as you have the plugin and apply it with ISFShax.

But then you removed ISFShax. The thing that gives you the ability to fix the problems you created and the thing you made your Wii U depend on, since you used the unlimit plugin.
Now the OS crashes on boot after trying to mount the MLC, which doesn't work, since it isn't formatted for the size it is seen without the unlimit patch. This is too early for UDPIH to work.

Your only solution is now to solder defuse: https://consolemods.org/wiki/WiiU:De_Fuse
This allows you to load minute again, which then allows you to rebuild the MLC correctly, without the unlimit plugin.
