WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi has named a Bloodline member who he believes will become a fan-favourite household singles star.
Speaking on his Off The Top podcast, Rikishi shared his honest thoughts on his son Jimmy Uso’s current WWE run.
Believing that Jimmy’s time as a top singles star will come – as it did for Jey Uso – Rikishi noted:
“Jimmy, he’s an open book. He can do anything. To me, he’s a prankster, he’s a comedian, if he wanted to try to do that stand-up thing. He’s very talented, very athletic, a good father, a good, amazing brother. He’s the guy, the oldest to where he kind of holds that crew down.
“So yeah, to be able to see him finally find himself as a single competitor out there in the WWE, it’s gonna be some work for him. But he’s smart enough to find it. Jey found it, came up with the ‘Yeet,’ and now it’s one of the hottest-selling merchandise that’s out there, one of the worldwide names, you say ‘yeet’, you think about Jey. So Jimmy will find it.
“You mark my words, Jimmy’s gonna be a fan-favorite household single competitor wrestler in due time. While he’s out there, he’s smart enough to find out what works.
“Then he’s gonna bring that to television, and then it’ll be off to the races, who’s got the biggest selling merchandise, the Yeet Man or the Jimmy Man? Big Jim, that’s him.'”
Rikishi calling Jimmy Uso a comedian isn’t just out of fatherly love, with Roman Reigns recently naming Jimmy as the funniest member of the Bloodline.
