Jimmy Uso may be making a triumphant return to WWE programming sooner than expected. Since being unceremoniously ejected from The Bloodline in April, the charismatic wrestler has been absent from WWE television, recovering from a legitimate injury and missing out on the 2024 WWE Draft. His last in-ring performance saw him lose to his twin brother, Jey Uso, at WrestleMania 40.
However, during an appearance on The Masked Man Show ahead of SummerSlam, Jey Uso provided a much-anticipated update on his brother's status. "My brother will be back soon," Jey revealed, adding, "I want to see him on TV. Like, if you really pay attention to Jimmy, Jimmy [is] funny as hell." He went on to say, "He started shining on SmackDown for a little bit, then he got hurt. Iâm excited to see his character back on TV. How he is with Roman [Reigns] now. Even with me."
The Bloodline has undergone a dramatic transformation since Reigns' defeat by Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania. With Reigns currently absent from WWE television, Solo Sikoa has assumed the mantle of Tribal Chief, assembling a new faction comprised of Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, and Jacob Fatu. This dramatic shift saw Sikoa turn against both Jimmy Uso and Paul Heyman, leaving the group's future uncertain.
Jey expressed his excitement about the potential for The Bloodline's storyline to reach new heights upon Jimmy's return, hinting at a potential reunion and subsequent clash. From a personal perspective, Jey has expressed pride in his younger brother Sikoa's burgeoning success within WWE.
As the SummerSlam showdown approaches, Sikoa is set to challenge Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship. While Jey doesn't currently have a match scheduled for the prestigious pay-per-view, he has recently re-teamed with Sami Zayn on Raw. Sikoa and his version of The Bloodline, meanwhile, remain members of the SmackDown roster.
Jimmy's impending return promises to inject fresh energy and intrigue into the already volatile landscape of The Bloodline. As the WWE universe eagerly awaits his comeback, questions linger about the impact he will have on the faction's dynamics, his potential role in the Reigns-Rhodes rivalry, and the potential for a reconciliation with his brother.
