WWE delivered an incredible go-home episode of SmackDown up ahead of their Premium Live Event (PLE), Payback, this Saturday. While there were several noteworthy highlights, none more special than the return of megastar turned actor. Like always, the 13-time WWE Champion received a thunderous reception, but he was surprisingly interrupted by one Jimmy Uso.

With the two superstars going back and forth in a heated segment, Jimmy once again laid out the reasons for him attacking Jey Uso at SummerSlam, which unfortunately didn’t find appreciation from the ex-champion.

And within no time, Uso started disrespecting Cena. But one of the major talking points of the segment involved Jimmy Uso spilling out the reasons behind turning on his own blood at Summerslam. 

He quoted: “I don’t care if each and everyone sitting in these damn seats disagrees, what I’ve done. I’m telling you, I did it because I love my brother.”

He also went on to add how he didn’t want his brother to get corrupted like Roman Reigns and John Cena. Unfortunately for Jimmy, things didn’t end well as Cena bluntly confronted him.

The 46-year-old claimed Jimmy has been making rash decisions in his career, before adding that “the wrong Uso quit.”

As a furious Jimmy went to attack Cena with a superkick, he was caught by the Attitude Adjustment sending him crashing through the mat. While it was a rough start for Jimmy, as Cena humiliated him, he did manage to turn things around in the main event.

In the main event, AJ Styles took on Solo Sikoa in a tough battle. With Styles looking to pick up the victory with the phenomenal forearm, Jimmy Uso again made an appearance and distracted the veteran near the apron.

This was enough to allow Sikoa to capitalize and pick up the victory with a Samoan spike. He wasn’t done yet as the superstar then attacked Styles after the match with a super kick, followed by the Usos splash, standing over the still body of Styles.
