Jimmy Uso has been slowly developing himself as a singles star on the WWE SmackDown brand. This is similar to his twin Jey Uso on Raw. These two former members of The Bloodline have reconciled since Jimmy Uso betrayed Jey Uso at Summerslam 2023. However, they have gone their separate ways since then.

Jimmy Uso made an appearance on “Stephanie’s Places” an ESPN Original Series. He was present with other members like Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, Jacob Fatu, Solo Sikoa and Tama Tonga. There he talked to Stephanie McMahon about various matters related to their family and culture.

Jimmy Uso Originally Played College Football Along With His Brother Jey Uso

The Bloodline members are notable for having wrestling in their veins as they belong to the Samoan Wrestling Family. Some former members of the family were “High Chief” Peter Maivia (grandfather of The Rock), Yokozuna (Rodney Anoa’i), Afa and Sika (The Wild Samoans), Rosey (Matt Anoa’i) and Umaga (Eddie Fatu). However, not all of them initially planned on becoming a wrestler.

Jimmy Uso revealed to Stephanie McMahon that the funny thing is he and his twin Jey Uso were never pushed to become wrestlers (via ESPN on Youtube)-

Jimmy Uso also revealed that they initially did not want to wrestle and tried not to be hard on their bodies. Notably, both Jimmy Uso (Jonathan Fatu) and Jey Uso (Joshua Fatu) are former college football players. They are known for playing college football at the University of West Alabama. Stephanie McMahon also posted these comments on her official Instagram account.

Several Of The Bloodline Members’ Children Want To Become Wrestlers Like Them

Stephanie McMahon also learned that the children several of the Bloodline members also intends to become future wrestlers (via ESPN on YouTube). Jey Uso’s and Jacob Fatu’s children are prime examples of this.

Jey Uso revealed that his son always asks him how long it would be before he and his father become like Rey Mysterio and Dominik Mysterio. Jacob Fatu’s daughters, on the other hand, are big fans of Tiffany Stratton, Rhea Ripley, Nia Jax and Naomi. They have also seen how their uncles like Roman Reigns and the others are like family outside of the ring.

Now that two of the Bloodline members have spoken about their children, the future will reveal which ones of them will represent the family in the future of the WWE.

I’m a sports content writer focusing on MMA, WWE and MLB writer at The Playoffs. I have a Master’s degree in Media Science (M.Sc) from my college The Heritage Academy. I got into the sports industry through my previous company where I worked from 2023 to March 2025. I’m a fan of combat sports like pro wrestling and MMA. My favorite part about working at The Playoffs is speculating what can be happening in WWE, especially face-heel turns and results of matches.
