Jimmy Uso was arrested for driving in a drunken state on Monday night, in his home state of Pensacola, Florida. He was granted bail from the jail for a $500 bond, a few years later which came as a relief. But in the future, he will have to be presented in the court for further jurisdiction process. Plus, this is the third time that such a DUI arrest happened with him, leading to a tough situation for the WWE officials.
They are extremely strict when it comes to such unprofessional behaviors from the superstars. In the case of Jimmy Uso, it’s been repeatedly happening. Till now, no edict has been handed down on WWE’s part. As Ringside News previously reported, they did not have enough time to deal with the matter, right away. The plan is to handle this situation when this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown occurs for the final time inside ThunderDome.

It’s something that “we’ve all been waiting for,” according to one Superstar but then this arrest happened.
