Rikishi has a bold prediction for Jey Uso's upcoming title match on WWE RAW
Jey Uso defied the odds and won the No.1 contender's Intercontinental Champion tournament on WWE RAW last week. The 39-year-old will challenge Bron Breakker for the Intercontinental Championship on next week's Monday Night Show. Jey's father, Rikishi, has now made some bold predictions for the upcoming bout.
WWE has been pitching a potential Jey Uso vs Bron Breakker story for weeks. Both came face to face on RAW this week to exchange words when the champion was laid out with a Spear. However, by the night's end, Breakker returned the favor to deliver a vicious Spear to Jey, sending a message ahead of their match.
During the recent Off the Top podcast episode, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi addressed his son's upcoming match. The veteran stated that it could go several ways, including a potential interference. Rikishi also added that getting a Bloodline member involved was another possibility.
"Let's see what happens, you know. Again, I ain't, you know, I ain't been, you know, tapping in or tuning in, but uh, yeah, 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, you know, it could be somebody, or I don't know. It could be another Bloodline member, or there are so many ways we can go with this," stated the Hall of Famer [21:51 onwards]
Could Jimmy Uso return to help Jey Uso defeat Bron Breakker?
Jimmy Uso has been out of WWE TV since Solo Sikoa and Tama Tonga's vicious attack following WrestleMania XL. While the former tag team champion has been rumored to mark his return against The Bloodline for weeks, it is yet to happen.
On the Road to WrestleMania, Jimmy Uso cost several title matches to Jey Uso. Next week on RAW, the former tag team champion could correct his actions by helping Jey defeat Breakker, potentially teasing a reunion.
This could further lead to Jimmy and Jey teaming up and helping their cousin Roman Reigns take out the new faction. Eventually, this might lead the story toward a much-anticipated Bloodline vs. Bloodline WarGames match for Survivor Series.
