The WWE has shifted more and more toward featuring stars from various sports, which might present an intriguing option for NBA centre Dwight Howard.

With eight All-Star game appearances and an NBA championship with the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2019–2020 season, Howard has pretty much accomplished everything there is to do in the NBA.

He's 36 years old and his NBA career is coming to a close, but he now seems interested in a potential WWE career once his basketball career is over.

On Thursday, Howard made an appearance at a WWW tryout in Nashville where he was seen cutting several promos

and even got to speak with the new creative team leader, Paul Levesque, best known in the WWE as "Triple H." [{ "selector": ".puwjl-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

He stated that a WWE career is definitely a possibility for him in the future during an interview with Arash Markazi of "The Mightier 1090" while he was at the audition.
