A few weeks ago, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi had some strong words for the way his son, ‘Main Event’ Jey Uso was being booked in WWE. Rikishi was not happy that his son was in a storyline trying to get into a relationship with Rhea Ripley. A few weeks have gone by and now the Yeet Man is on his way to potentially capturing his first singles title in WWE. Next week on Raw Jey Uso will be challenging Bron Breakker for the WWE Intercontinental Championship.
On the latest episode of his own Off The Top podcast, Rikishi shared his thoughts on his son Jey Uso getting a title shot against Bron Breakker. The WWE Hall of Famer also mentioned that when he was criticising the booking, he was only talking as a father.
“Let’s get a round of applause on that one. I hope they do the right thing, I guess. When I voice my opinion, damn, boy, my forehead starts sweating. I can feel all the heat coming my way. I’m just speaking as a father, though. Tell me any other father would not be speaking up for their son or their daughter. So let’s see what happens. We’ll see what can possibly happen.
“The way I see the tables turning, I see it turning for the Yeet Man, and then we’ll see from there. Or it might be an outside interference, or I don’t know, it could be another Bloodline member. There’s so many ways we can go with this. This is just my humble opinion,” Rikishi said. [H/T Fightful.com]
