Smackdown Superstar to Return in February

[Travis40]

Sidelined Smackdown superstar Umaga is being advertised for WWE house show events in February. He is scheduled to appear in a tag match with Big Show vs. Triple H and Undertaker on the February 6 event in Kennewick, Washington.

Hopefully he returns as a heel

I don't see how he can be a face..?

 

[Travis40]

He could kinda turn into a comedy character like Khali currently is.

 

[gatesoftanhauser]

Hopefully not. I would hate for them to waste him.

he needs 2 stay heel IMO. I really don't think he would play a good face. He cant talk 4 1, Yes i know ya gonna say he could have interpreter. But that would be just Kali version 2/ Nah Umaga so needs to stay heel. I'm looking forward to him returning

 

[gatesoftanhauser]

He needs to return and just squash everybody. Then they can build up steam and have him be defeated by an up and comer like MVP (turn him face)

He CAN be a face. He already proved that. During Hardy's suspension going into Summerslam 2007 he was getting a big amount of cheers and was acting as a face.

I think he could actually be a fae, and make it good. As stated earlier he had the summer of 07 getting cheers. And with them saying that it might be revealed that he can talk, that would probably turn into a comedy act with him trying to learn how to learn/speak English week after week. Have somebody like Eve maybe be his helper, since she stated she wanted to be a wrestler.

Storyline ways, Eve would be teaching Umaga English, guys would laugh at him, he gets mad and goes all out for them laughing at him. The (heel) divas would laugh at her for helping "an animal" or taming "an animal", she gets mad with them, meaning more ring time for her as well. That's just one way it could work but I don't see it as another Khali and it certainly wouldn't kill Umaga's character. And if the fans don't get behind the idea, they could easily have Umaga turn on Eve and get his heel heat back.

Can't wait for him to return. he is a very good heel, andfeuds with Taker, HHH and even eventually Kenneyd sound good to me.

 

[Enigma22]

ya hes a good wrestler and id like to see him return. if hes a face he can feud with kozlof eventually or edge or big show. if they are smart and make him a heel he can feud with taker or hhh or hardy...

 

[1chiban]

I suspect a feud with 'Taker will be upcoming next year?

 

[gatesoftanhauser]

I can see a great feud with UT this coming year. UT really put over the Big Show's "knockout punch" and that was a great feud. And let's be honest, when's the last time the Big Show was that exciting to watch? If UT really puts over Umaga, it'll be a GREAT feud.

Umaga will be back long before that. He was advertised on all the House Shows here in Canada as well. He was originaly suposed to team with Mark Henry against The Hardy's in Hamilton, didn't happen. I bet Umaga will be a suprise entrant in the Rumble.

Why the hell is he returning in February? I swear he wrestled in FCW like a month ago.
