Last week on SmackDown, Jey Uso collided with Austin Theory for the United States Championship. At one point, Jey had the match won but the referee was knocked out. This allowed Pretty Deadly to interfere and come to the aid of Austin Theory. However, the Bloodline traitor Jimmy Uso then made his way to the ring and warded off Pretty Deadly. Chaos ensued after Solo followed and attacked Jimmy. Amidst the chaos, Jimmy Uso inadvertently super-kicked Jey Uso.

By the looks of it, WWE has multiple versions to tell this story further. Although Solo is on Roman’s side, he could betray The Tribal Chief when it’s least expected. At this point, all we know is that Jey Uso is going to pick a side come Friday. Either Jey is going to remain in the Bloodline or align himself with Jimmy Uso who stands rejected from The Bloodline. 

While speaking on the Busted Open podcast, Mark Henry expressed his excitement for The Bloodline’s family feud saga. According to him, the fact that the story involves emotions and feelings makes it the best soap opera in the world.

He said, Emotional involvement and feelings. So are the days of our lives! This is the best soap opera in the world. I mean, it’s incredible. It writes itself, so, whatever decisions is chose, for the betterment of this, we’re all going to benefit from it. It’s us as fans that are going to benefit. I don’t care what story they are going to tell, long as this stays in line with what’s going on in that family, I’m good!

Paul Heyman recently revealed that Roman Reigns has been thinking about prepping Jey Uso to become the next Tribal Chief. Will Jey betray his twin for the coveted spot? Next week’s Friday Night SmackDown will see the awaited appearance of Roman Reigns. We will have to wait and see how things play out.

Mark Henry thinks that The Usos are more valuable as a tag team

Further during the podcast, Mark Henry pointed out that Jey and Jimmy Uso are more “valuable” as a tag team. Well, Mark Henry is right because the Usos have grabbed the spotlight as a tag team rather than as singles competitors. Although Jey Uso set out to dethrone the Tribal Chief in 2020, he suffered a humbling defeat.

Despite their loss at WrestleMania 39 to Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens, The Usos have dominated the Tag Team division. They are stronger together than they are as solo competitors. Mark Henry believes that splitting up The Usos would not be good TV. 

He stated, “You need the brothers to stay together. They’re valuable more as a tag team than they are split up.”
