Okay, so, about Jey Uso, right? This guy’s been making some serious waves in the WWE, and I’ve been following his journey for a while now. I started digging into this whole thing, trying to figure out if he’s more of a striker or what his deal is.
First off, I went and did some serious watching. I mean, hours of matches, rewatching his moves, you know, the whole nine yards. He’s got this fiery energy in the ring, and his matches with his twin brother, Jimmy, as The Usos, are always something else. They’re part of this big wrestling family, the Anoaʻi family, so they’ve been in the game since they were kids. Their dad trained them, so it’s like, wrestling is in their blood.
I also checked out their background. The twins played football back in their high school days at Escambia High School, and then even in college at the University of West Alabama. They both played linebacker, so they’ve got that athletic background, which probably explains their stamina in the ring. Jonathan, that’s Jimmy, played for one season in 2003, and Joshua, that’s Jey, played from 2003 to 2005.
Recently, there’s been some drama between the brothers. Jey left The Bloodline, which is this big wrestling stable they were part of. I was trying to piece together why that happened. Apparently, it was because of some disagreements, so Jey’s been doing his own thing on Raw, while Jimmy was with The Bloodline on SmackDown. But then, even Jimmy got kicked out by Solo Sikoa. It’s like a whole soap opera!
Then, I saw this announcement that Jey is gonna face Drew McIntyre in a singles match. It’s happening on the Monday episode of Raw, and they’re even saying it’s gonna be on Netflix next year, which is huge. I’m thinking, this match could really show us what Jey’s capable of on his own.
From what I found out, there are rumors that WWE is considering splitting up the Usos in 2025 to work on their solo career paths. It has also been reported that Jey Uso recently lost his Intercontinental Title in a rematch against Bron Breakker, so maybe he wants to find his place on his own feet.
So, is Jey Uso a striker? From all the matches I’ve watched and all the stuff I’ve read, it’s clear the guy’s got a powerful presence in the ring. He’s got those Samoan wrestling roots, and he’s not afraid to throw down. But it’s more than just striking; it’s his whole vibe, his connection with the crowd, and how he tells a story in the ring. He’s definitely a force to be reckoned with, and I’m excited to see where he goes from here, especially with this upcoming match against McIntyre. That’s gonna be one for the books, for sure.
