The Bloodline has been one of the chief attractions of WWE television programming in recent years. The history of the faction, which began with the return of Roman Reigns at SummerSlam 2020, has only grown in prestige with the inclusion of characters such as Solo Sikoa, The Usos, and most recently, The Rock. As they have starred in some of the best highlights of the company’s recent history.

One such moment took place last year when Jey Uso left the faction’s clutches by leaving SmackDown and the group. Being betrayed by his own brother marked the final nail in the coffin of Uso’s decision. Later, he would be introduced as the new superstar of RAW. There he has tried to start from scratch away from his family, although they have not made things easy for him. And things got so bitter that he will be facing his twin Jimmy Uso at WrestleMania. However, it looks like he still hasn’t forgotten his love for his brothers, as he recently acknowledged the Tribal Chief by breaking character.

After years and years of wrestling as a team, writing the history of the WWE Tag Team Division, and achieving record after record, Jimmy and Jey Uso have finally separated to give fans one of the most anticipated matchups of WrestleMania XL. Their father, a former WWE wrestler, commented on what happened over the past few weeks on an episode of the Rikishi Fatu Off The Top podcast. He also revealed who he thinks should win the fight.

He said, “Jey is having a hell of a year as a single. Jimmy’s the same as far as being involved in the group with The Bloodline and so, to see the steam that Jey is having as a singles career, it only makes sense from a business standpoint. If I was on the board of TKO or WWE, we’d have to go with YEET. I would feel that would be the best business move, to be able to let Jey get the upper hand for WrestleMania against his brother.”

Many believe that Rikishi, in some way, will be involved in this story. Perhaps in the role of special referee or special enforcer who will follow the match outside the ring. Maybe a surprise by the WWE for the fans? Only time will tell. But do you agree with Rikishi? Who do you think should win the fight? Let us know in the comments.
