During WWE Friday Night SmackDown, Roman Reigns joined forces with Jey Uso once again. Despite registered to battle Solo Sikoa’s Bloodline faction in WWE Crown Jewel, existential issues between Jey and Reigns remained to be addressed.
In the middle of the segment, Jimmy Uso extended the olive branch to Reigns, telling him he has made peace with Jey. He further pressed Reigns to do the same if they wanted victory in the imminent Crown Jewel 2024.
Before Reigns reacted, Jey met him in the ring, revealing that he took the match to get back at Sikoa for costing him the WWE Intercontinental Championship and impacting their family negatively. Jey made it clear that he no longer considered himself the OTC’s sidekick as they were on equal footing now.
He warned Reigns that he would not shy away from leaving if he sensed any slightest disrespect and demanded that Reigns act more like a cousin rather than The Tribal Chief. Reigns responded with a resounding “Yeet!” and together they wrapped up the segment by raising their fingers. See the full segment here:
