Rikishi has a bold prediction about one member of The Bloodline.
While Jey Uso has broken out as a singles star and even captured the Intercontinental Championship in 2024, Jimmy Uso has yet to win singles gold in WWE. However, according to his Hall of Fame father, Jimmy is also destined for singles success.
Speaking on his Off the Top podcast, Rikishi spoke about his sons and his belief that Jimmy will find success when he finds what makes him marketable on his own.
“Jimmy, he’s an open book. He can do anything. To me, he’s a prankster, he’s a comedian, if he wanted to try to do that stand-up thing. He’s very talented, very athletic, a good father, a good, amazing brother. He’s the guy, the oldest to where he kind of holds that crew down.
So yeah, to be able to see him finally find himself as a single competitor out there in the WWE, it’s gonna be some work for him. But he’s smart enough to find it. Jey found it, came up with the ‘Yeet,’ and now it’s one of the hottest-selling merchandise that’s out there, one of the worldwide names, you say ‘yeet’, you think about Jey. So Jimmy will find it.”
Rikishi Believes Jimmy Uso Will Be A Fan Favorite Singles Competitor
Continuing, the WWE Hall of Famer predicted that like his brother, Jimmy Uso will become a household name as a singles competitor. In fact, Rikishi believes Jimmy might one day outsell Jey Uso when it comes to merchandise.
“You mark my words, Jimmy’s gonna be a fan-favorite household single competitor wrestler in due time. While he’s out there, he’s smart enough to find out what works. Then he’s gonna bring that to television, and then it’ll be off to the races, who’s got the biggest selling merchandise, the Yeet Man or the Jimmy Man? Big Jim, that’s him.'”
