Reigns and Uso belong to the esteemed Anoa’i family. They are a family of professional wrestlers which includes WWE Hall of Famers like Rikishi, Yokozuna, and Sika as well as modern Superstars like Reigns, Uso Brothers, Tamina, Nia Jax, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
Reigns and Uso are first cousins once-removed. The Usos are the sons of Hall Of Famer Rikishi and Reigns is the son of another Hall of Famer Sika. The Rock and Nia Jax are honorary members of the family. The Rock’s father and Nia’s father are first cousins. Peter Maivia (Rock’s father) and the forefather Amituana Anoa’i were blood brothers.

Previously, WWE has capitalized on the rivalries between siblings including Bret vs Owen Hart, Jeff vs Matt Hardy, and Brie vs Nikki Bella. All of these rivalries were well received by fans. So, it is safe to say WWE is trying their old wine in a new glass with the cousin vs cousin match.
Will Jey win his first World title or will The “Big Dog” emerge victorious over his own blood? We have to tune into WWE Clash of Champions 2020 on September 27 to find out.
