WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi has always been proud of his sonsJey Uso, Jimmy Uso, and Solo Sikoaand recently, his focus has been on Jeys journey within WWE.
Rikishi, who has occasionally been critical of his sons booking, has seen Jey endure setbacks like his losses in the King of the Ring tournament and Money in the Bank match. However, Jey has bounced back in recent weeks, earning a shot at the WWE Intercontinental Championship and ultimately winning the title by defeating Bron Breakker on the September 23rd episode of WWE Raw.
Before Jeys championship win, Rikishi discussed his pride and support for his son during an episode of his Off The Top podcast. Despite being on the sidelines, Rikishi made it clear that he is always rooting for Jey and the rest of his family as they navigate their WWE careers.
He also emphasized his concern for the health and well-being of all WWE Superstars, adding,
With Jey now holding the WWE Intercontinental Championship, Rikishis pride has likely only grown stronger as he watches his son continue to succeed in the squared circle. With Rikishi always in his corner, its clear that Jey has a strong foundation as he looks to make his mark as champion.
