Jey Uso on the bloodline: “I always wanted my dad involved”
Over the past few years, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi expressed interest in being part of WWE’s Bloodline storyline. During an interview with The Daily Mail, Jey Uso commented on his father not being involved…
“I always wanted my dad involved, whether it be a referee… I just don’t think my dad could have kept up, just getting up and down, because referees, they’re doing like, push up burpees the whole match too, they’re getting a great workout. Maybe like a go home promo, just some kind of cool promo segment. There might be another time for it.”
Jey also said the following about his match with brother Jey…
“I just try to look at the positive part. We checked that box off, me and Jimmy, for sure. Man, That’s the only thing, I wish, I wish we could have had a straight up wrestling banger. Sometimes matches run heavy, especially those big shows like that, you’ve just got to roll with the punches. There’s no heat, you can’t get hot at the other matches, everyone’s trying to go out there and do their thing, and it was all love at the end. I’m just glad we got that shot with with me and my brother in there, in a WrestleMania environment.”
He should be involved somehow. Maybe have him be a peacemaker to get Jimmy and Jey back together after all the fighting. Have him try the same thing with Solo only to get spiked in the end. Rikishi wouldn’t have to take a big bump and just rely on his selling to carry it off. Either way he’s gotta be a proud Papa three of his four sons in the biggest storyline for years now.
