Although Roman Reigns and The Usos are now fighting on the same side, it is evident that they are still not on the same page. There is still a lot of tension between the Samoans. On the latest episode of SmackDown, Jey Uso made it clear that he is no one’s lackey anymore.
A backstage segment on SmackDown featured Uso wanting to talk to Reigns about the episode’s intense opening segment. The OTC refused and started to walk away, but the former Intercontinental Champion stopped him by grabbing his arm. Jey was upset because the 39-year-old had refused to hear Sami Zayn out.
This statement upset Roman Reigns, who berated his cousin for caring so much about Zayn. Reigns further stated that if the Canadian truly meant so much to him, the 10x Tag Team Champion should get out of his face and go look for him instead. This statement ticked off Uso.
He brought up the condition that he had put forth when he reunited with his cousins. You talk to me like that, I’m out. That’s your one pass, Uce.
