Rikishi, the WWE Hall of Famer and father of Jey Uso, recently shared his thoughts on his son’s potential to win the World Heavyweight Championship and main event WrestleMania. In a recent episode of his podcast, Rikishi Fatu Off The Top, the Hall of Famer expressed his confidence in Jey’s abilities, saying that he believes his son has what it takes to reach the top of the WWE mountain.
Since breaking away from The Bloodline last year, Jey Uso has become one of the most popular superstars on RAW, with his charismatic persona and impressive in-ring skills making him a fan favorite. Despite his success, Jey has yet to win a singles title, coming close but ultimately failing to capture the Intercontinental Title and World Heavyweight Championship in recent months.
However, Jey’s recent victory over Finn Balor on RAW has advanced him to the second round of the King of the Ring tournament, and Rikishi believes that this could be the start of something big for his son. “I think Jey has what it takes to win the King of the Ring tournament and eventually the World Heavyweight Championship,” Rikishi said on his podcast.
Moreover, winning the Money in the Bank briefcase could also guarantee Jey another title opportunity, and Rikishi thinks his son has the talent and determination to make it happen. Not everyone agrees, however, with WWE personality Sam Roberts expressing his desire to see Jey “get dirt under his fingernails” before becoming the next Mr. Money in the Bank.
As Jey Uso continues to navigate the WWE terrain, fans are eagerly anticipating his next move. Will he finally win a singles title and main event WrestleMania, or will he be drawn back into the ongoing Bloodline storyline? One thing is certain – Jey Uso has the talent, charisma, and drive to succeed, and his father, Rikishi, is confident that he has what it takes to reach the top.
