With Wrestlemania 40 coming close, the chances are getting bright to witness a dream match. Splitting The Usos, one of the greatest tag teams of all time in the WWE, happened intending to put these two against each other in a singles outing. While many thought that the bout would be scheduled after Jimmy Uso’s Summerslam betrayal, WWE kept things pushing to put this into the card of the Show of Shows.
WWE has been building towards Jimmy Uso vs. Jey Uso in a singles match for a while now after Jimmy scre*ed Jey at SummerSlam 2023 which further led to Roman Reigns defeating Jey in a Tribal Combat to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in the main event of the PLE. The two have mostly been kept apart since that outing for Wrestlemania 40.
