Recent WWE developments suggest that Jey Uso is likely to reunite with his brother Jimmy Uso, but industry veteran Bill Apter warns this alliance may not last long. The situation is tense as Jey Uso appears to be moving toward a heel turn, possibly ending their tag team for now.
Signs Point to a Brief Reunion Between the Usos
The Usos have long been one of WWE’s most beloved tag teams, yet current storylines indicate tension between Jey and Jimmy Uso. On a recent episode of RAW, LA Knight intervened to protect the Usos from a threat posed by The Vision, but the peace was short-lived as Jey Uso suddenly Speared Knight. This surprising action hinted at a shift away from Jey’s previously heroic persona.
Bill Apter, speaking on The Wrestling Time Machine with Mac Davis, offered insight into what might happen next in Jey Uso’s WWE career. He pointed out that although the two brothers are expected to face Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker at the upcoming WrestlePalooza event, their partnership could dissolve before that match even takes place. Apter commented on the possibility of Jey launching a “dirty attack” against Jimmy during the event, underscoring the strain within the team.
“It looks like Jey Uso and his brother Jimmy Uso may, will wrestle those two (Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker), of course, I believe at WrestlePalooza. But it looks like they may split up before anything happens. It looks like Jey Uso might dirty attack his brother during that match. They are having severe problems with LA Knight in the middle here, and it looked like Jey Uso was not very happy, and he may be turning heel.” —Bill Apter, Veteran Journalist
Concerns Over Jey Uso Turning Heel at This Moment
While a heel turn could open up fresh storytelling angles for Jey Uso, Bill Apter expressed reservations, suggesting it might damage the wrestler’s momentum and merchandise appeal. On the show UnSKripted, Apter rated Jey’s current heat level as moderate, indicating that fans remain somewhat engaged despite his ambiguous character direction.
“Well, his entrance is hot. Mixed up in character right now so I am gonna go medium (medium hot) because he is kind of a tween right now. They are teasing him possibly turning heel, which I think is a grave mistake, doing that. His merchandise might go right into the toilet at that point. So, I would give him a medium hot at this point.” —Bill Apter, Veteran Journalist
At present, Jey Uso’s intentions and future direction within WWE remain uncertain, raising concerns among fans and insiders who worry about the impact of a heel turn on his career. Meanwhile, the dynamic between Jey and Jimmy Uso continues to be a focal point for WWE storylines as WrestlePalooza approaches.
