‘The Biggest Party Of The Summer’, SummerSlam takes place this Saturday at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan. 65,000 crazed fans will be roaring with excitement to see their favorite superstars battle it out in the ring. There are a lot of star-studded matches lined up that night that already have the fans drooling.

Like the ‘Slim Jim Battle Royal’, ‘The Scottish Warrior’ Drew McIntyre facing Gunther for the Intercontinental Championship and Seth Rollins defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Finn Balor to name a few. But there is one match in particular that the fans just can’t wait to watch. We are talking about the ‘Tribal Combat’ between Roman Reigns and Jey Uso for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. While fans are rooting for Jey Uso to win that night, someone very close to him thinks otherwise.

This particular rivalry started at Night Of Champions with Jimmy Uso super kicking The Tribal Chief after he treated Jey impudently in front of the fans. The rivalry further intensified when Jey Uso also super-kicked Reigns when asked which side he wanted to choose. This led to a match between The Usos and Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa which The Usos won convincingly. Jey pinned Reigns after destroying him with a ‘frog splash’ thus ending his 1294 days unbeaten streak.

But the feud didn’t end there as Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa wanted to take some revenge for their loss at MITB. A month ago, Reigns and Solo Sikoa unleashed a brutal attack on The Usos which sent Jimmy to the hospital. This enraged Jey, who later returned that night and destroyed both Reigns and Solo Sikoa single-handedly. And later demanded ‘Tribal Combat’ not just for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, but also to decide who will be the new ‘Tribal Chief’.

But the whole WWE universe is praying for Jey Uso to come out as Champion and Tribal Chief that night. One of Jey’s family members is still in support of Roman Reigns. A video posted on WWE’s Instagram showed Jey Uso asking his youngest son, Jeyce Fatu, who would win that night. And Jeyce said, “At this point, I think Uncle Joe”. Uncle Joe was Roman Reigns and this obviously shocked Jey, who then caught his son playfully and asked him again. But this time Jeyce said, “Ok you will win, you gonna win”.

So although Jeyce eventually took his dad’s name just to appease him, deep down we know whom he is actually rooting for. With such favoritism within the family itself, we wonder how Jey Uso is mentally preparing himself for the fight. But talking about family, Jimmy, who has not been seen in action post the attack, might just pop up at SummerSlam and spoil the party for Jey.

The Usos have been the most dominating tag team to ever walk the face of the WWE since their debut in 2010. They have won the Smackdown Tag Team Championship on 5 occasions and have also won the RAW Tag Team Championship once. They were the first tag team to hold them simultaneously as the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship. But in spite of such an illustrious career and such a tight bond, fans think Jimmy might be the thorn on Saturday at SummerSlam.

The reason is that Jey has always been the brother in the spotlight. We have already talked about 3 reasons why we feel that Jimmy Uso might turn on Jey at SummerSlam. But I mean, let’s be honest, Jey pinned Roman Reigns and broke his 1294 days unbeaten streak. And now he is the one facing Reigns in a main event match for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. He has the right to become the new Tribal Chief. All these accolades are sure to brew some jealousy inside the heart of Jimmy, who has spent time on the periphery rather than the forefront.
