Rikishi Discusses Potential Involvement In Jimmy Uso Vs. Jey Uso WrestleMania 40 Match

WWE

WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi has commented on the potential singles clash between his sons Jimmy and Jey Uso at WrestleMania 40.

When Jimmy Uso betrayed his twin brother Jey in the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship main event of SummerSlam last year, many had speculated that it would ultimately lead to a match between the two Usos at WrestleMania 40.

With The Rock also re-entering the WWE picture, many fans have speculated on whether the Usos’ father, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, will return to WWE for a role in the upcoming clash between his sons.

Speaking to For The Love of Wrestling via Monopoly Events, Rikishi was asked about the potential match between his sons, with it being noted he could appear in the corner of Jey for the match.

He said:

“I’ve been hearing that over the last 16 hours since I’ve been here signing for the Love of Wrestling fans. ‘Are you coming back?’ I go, ‘What are you talking about?’ ‘We need you to come back to settle this drama going on between your kids.’ I’m like, I don’t know. I really don’t know.

“Will it happen? Maybe. Can it happen? Of course. But is that what the fans want? Is that what The Bloodline wants? Is that what the WWE wants? So in the meantime, I’m kind of on the sidelines. I’m just, I don’t want to say patiently waiting, but I’m on the side.”

“It seems like the family has just been going at it. I feel that people in the wrestling world, let’s face it, there’s no perfect family, whether you’re in the wrestling business or whatever business. But to be able to see this dynasty go back and forth, it’s entertaining to a lot of people.

“The family’s just kind of going divided, you know what I mean? There needs to be some type of law and order. Somebody needs to pull it down and say, ‘This is what it is.’ So I don’t know, we’ll see.

“At the end of the day, I look forward, if this dream match happens at WrestleMania, man, it would be a historical moment. Not only for the boys, to be able to finally get their wish to headline or be a part of WrestleMania together, and let’s see. There needs to be a piece of the puzzle to complete that, and I’ll leave it at that.”
