The events that transpired on SmackDown shocked everyone as Jey Uso spoke about quitting WWE after hitting a superkick to Jimmy Uso and Roman Reigns. Following the turmoil, the father of The Usos and WWE legend Rikishi finally broke his silence. He recently posted a cryptic message regarding the turn of events.

The Hall of Famer posted an emoji of peace and implicitly referenced the segment between Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso. The emoji is usually used to express a sense of goodwill, agreement, and peace. Jey Uso was also seen doing the same symbol while walking out of the arena in the closing moments of SmackDown.

This is not the first time Rikishi has posted something related to The Bloodline. It is likely that the Samoan legend has been following the Bloodline saga closely. His recent activity might mean that Rikishi is in support of Jey Uso’s decision. It is going to be interesting to see if the Hall of Famer steps up to this emotionally driven storyline to settle the differences between his sons.

Jey Uso superkicked his brother Jimmy Uso after his explanation on SmackDown. Prior to that, Jimmy said if Jey had won and become the Tribal Chief, he would have gone further away from him. Jimmy believes that it would have negatively affected Jey and made him corrupt like Roman Reigns.

Only time will tell what the future holds for the former tag team champions. Jey Uso might have quit WWE as of now, but a match between the two superstars is likely to culminate in the near future. It is going to be interesting to see the further development of this program in the coming weeks.

Jey Uso might stay away from WWE for a while, as he mentioned on SmackDown. The fans are waiting for the first ever Uso vs. Uso match. According to WRKD Wrestling, WWE is planning to have a Brother vs. Brother match later this year with Rikishi working as a special guest referee. According to rumors, WWE is planning to have multiple Brother vs. Brother matches out of this feud.

There’s no update about when their first match will take place. According to rumors, the two brothers might face each other at Payback. However, Wrestlevotes suggest that WWE is planning to have Jey Uso vs. Jimmy Uso at WrestleMania 40 next year. WrestleMania still has 35 weeks, so WWE might not keep it on hold for so long.

Rikishi will likely play an important role in this story of the Usos. It is going to be interesting to see how their story shapes up after the shocking turn of events on SmackDown. While Jey Uso has seemingly quit WWE, Jimmy’s future is vague as of now. Fans are on the edge of their seats to witness the first match between the Usos brothers.
