Fans haven’t seen Jimmy Uso in WWE programming in a long while. The wrestler was kicked out of his own family stable on SmackDown after Mania when the current leader of The Bloodline found a replacement for him. It appears that this completely broke his spirit as the Samoan star hasn’t dared to come back to the workplace ever since.
Money in the Bank appeared promising for those who were wishing for his return to the Stamford-based company. This is because The Bloodline will be busy in the six-man tag team match, allowing for a perfect return opportunity. But there are hurdles that Jimmy may have to face.
Will Jimmy Uso have to contend against legal issues?

On July 25th, 2019, the older Uso was arrested in Canada for DUI. He had a former record of another arrest that he paid a fine for. However, this time around, the court had seemingly banned him from performing in the country, at least for a while, forcing him to not appear in any of the shows there. This persisted for quite some time. Due to this issue, neither of The Usos could show up in Canada since they wrestled as a team. WWE too accommodated this obstacle by having them not perform in shows held in Canada. However, this year, it appears that Jimmy Uso might appear in Toronto for Money in the Bank to surprise fans with his return.
While the legal troubles could have come between his return, his ban from Canada was seemingly lifted because The Usos were present at the Elimination Chamber PLE last year to help The Tribal Chief. For this year, Jey Uso has already been booked to be at Money in the Bank during the men’s ladder match. So, if Jimmy Uso is booked to show up, he may not face any legal troubles.

Jimmy Uso will play an important role in The Bloodline story
The 38-year-old will probably return to turn babyface this time around. However, this redemption won’t come easy. One of the ways to do so would be to reconnect with his twin brother. The two last saw each other at WrestleMania XL in a faceoff. The “Main Event” star won the match after his brother tried to deceive him into believing that he was a changed man. So, the reconnection may not happen right away as Jey’s trust has been broken several times before.

What’s your perspective on:
Could legal issues derail Jimmy Uso's epic return to the Bloodline at MITB?
Have an interesting take?
Whenever Jimmy Uso turns babyface and The Usos are reunited again, we may see the old Bloodling coming together again without Solo Sikoa as he is currently heading the ruthless version of the Anoa’i family stable. So, The Usos, along with the Head of the Table, and probably a fourth member, might get involved in a Bloodline civil war. If this is the creative road that WWE ends up walking, then Jimmy Uso will have an important role to play in the storyline because he would be a significant member of the family.
Do you think the foundation for this twist will be laid at Money in the Bank this weekend? Comment your thoughts below.
