Uncle Howdy Emerges Victorious On WWE SmackDown But Loses The Lantern Once Again

The go-home episode of WWE SmackDown, ahead of tomorrow’s Elimination Chamber, was off to a frantic start as the Men’s Elimination Chamber match was thrown into jeopardy.

The night began with a vicious backstage attack on one-half of the World Tag Team Champions, Jey Uso, who was rushed to the hospital as soon as the show kicked off.

While it remains to be seen who took out the Main Event man, his younger brother, Solo Sikoa, wrestled the first match of the night as he took on long-term WWE rival, Uncle Howdy.

The leaders of MFT and the Wyatt Sicks faced each other in a one-on-one match tonight after weeks of faction warfare and they took pushed each other to the limit.

Solo tried to rub it in Howdy as he controlled the match and looked to hit him with a Sister Abigail but Howdy escaped with a Mandible Claw. He ultimately picked up the win with a Sister Abigail of his own.

Following his win, he retireved his beloved lantern from Solo’s grasp, but just as he got his hands on it, he was attacked by Talla Tonga and the rest of MFT ran away with the lantern once again as the Wyatt Sicks looked on.
