It isn't working because you are trying to compare the HTTP::host string to a full location (host + URI). Change your iRule to look like this:

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
 if {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "wcp.xx.com" and [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/wxx" } { 
  HTTP::redirect "https://pushdev.xx.com/[HTTP::uri]" 
  } 
}
