Uncle Howdy and Wyatt Sicks shocked the world when they finally made their debut on Monday Night RAW. It has been almost two months since Uncle Howdy made his first appearance in WWE, and the WWE Universe has been in a chokehold since their resurgence.
Amidst Uncle Howdy’s huge return to the WWE, the 16-time WWE World Champion, John Cena announced his retirement at the WWE Money in the Bank Premium Live Event. Furthermore, he will be embarking on a farewell tour facing several WWE superstars before hanging up his jorts for good. One Superstar that makes a lot of sense to face Cena is Uncle Howdy.
Let us take a look at a few possible reasons why Uncle Howdy is a top choice for a match in The John Cena Retirement Tour:
1. History with Bray Wyatt
Uncle Howdy and Wyatt Sicks are Bray Wyatt’s creations which WWE and Bo Dallas along with the rest of the members of Wyatt Sicks have brought to life after Bray’s sad demise last year. Wyatt had a lot of history with John Cena and could play a huge factor in Uncle Howdy facing John Cena in his retirement tour.
Bray Wyatt faced Mr. Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect at two different WrestleManias, once at WrestleMania 30 and then at WrestleMania 36. Uncle Howdy could bring John Cena’s history with Bray Wyatt and challenge him to a match which indeed would be a blockbuster showdown.
2. Establish his legacy at the expense of John Cena
John Cena is regarded as the greatest WWE Superstar of all time, an argument could be made that Cena has defined wrestling and WWE for many fans in the WWE Universe. Uncle Howdy has been looking to make a huge mark on the WWE Television Programming, and John Cena might be the perfect choice for that.
Uncle Howdy has created hype around him since returning to WWE, and a rub from a megastar like John Cena is exactly what Uncle Howdy needs to ascend to the next level of greatness.
3. Top Choice of Cena in his Retirement Tour
John Cena made several fans emotional while announcing his retirement tour at the WWE Money in the Bank Premium Live Event last month. The Champ is set to bid adieu to wrestling next year and will have his last WrestleMania match next year in Las Vegas.
The 16-time WWE Champion has expressed his desire to step inside the ring with several current WWE Superstars including Uncle Howdy. Being one of the biggest prospects for WWE, Uncle Howdy is set for a huge push and a match with The Face that Runs the Place will turn out to be a coming-out party for the mysterious force.
