Apparently they help us perform better," he said. "Im excited for it, man. Im ready to see if it brings the vibe, if it changes anything, if we feel any energy in there. I think this is one of the coolest things to be a part of."The game is leveled-up big time, and to be a part of it, to be a part of it with this new movement, especially with my brother, especially this tag match, thats also cool for me and my brother to have."The Usos were nearly inseparable for years as the won tag team championships on the RAW brand three times and on the SmackDown brand five times. The two were woven into one of the biggest storylines in pro wrestling for years, with The Bloodline and their cousin Roman Reigns as the "head of the table."Over the last 18 months, The Bloodline fractured and the brothers went their own ways with single runs. Jimmy Uso competed for the United States Championship and to find his footing against some of the top stars on SmackDown, while Jey Uso won the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 41.The Usos have teamed up sparingly since 2023. The Wrestlepalooza stage will be the biggest event for them as purely a duo since Money in the Bank in 2023 when they defeated Reigns and Solo Sikoa.AJ LEE RETURNS TO WWE AFTER 10-YEAR ABSENCE"Wrestlepalooza, to me, I was just telling my brother is, this got that Mania vibe here," Uso said. "This got that big fight feel here. So to double back with my brother, and were going up against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, hungry talent, great in the ring, these brothers can go, Im ready to see where were at. Its been a while. Im ready to see whether the Usos, one of the greatest tag teams ever, how were going to perform. Can we keep it up? We got some young dogs in there thats ready to prove themselves."Uso said he wasnt concerned too much about rust as a tag team but more so about how the energy at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis will affect them."Honestly, bro, I think its more like a mental rust because you have those doubts Do the Usos still got that charisma? Do they still got that chemistry? Can they still go in there and let everybody know the reason why they were the longest-reigning tag team in WWE for a reason? Thats the only thing but I think thats normal right?" he said. ""That nervousness if you aint kinda shaken, if you aint got that nervousness in you, its time to hang them boots up. I still feel it everyday before we about to walk out through them curtains. Hell man, I dont see how my brother does it. He comes out every week in that crowd. Its intense, man. Ive been in the crowd with him a few times during his entrance, and Ill tell you, that energy, thats a real thing, man. Were ready to keep it going and keep it moving and bring that energy in."WWE STAR OBA FEMI THROWS OPPONENT THROUGH TABLE FROM RING DURING HEATWAVE MATCH, RETAINS TITLEHaving his family around him is something Uso is incredibly grateful for. Hes a part of a Samoan lineage that is engrained in professional wrestling whether its WWE or elsewhere. And it continues today.Uso competes with Jey, his wife, Naomi, his other brother Sikoa, his cousins Reigns and Jacob Fatu and his cousin Nia Jax. Hes also a distant cousin of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. His father is WWE legend Rikishi."I remember my dad telling us, You get on this road, you guys be blessed that yall get to run this road together. He did it alone. He did it a while by himself for about 25 years. You know, to have all my brothers on the road with me, man, thats a different support system. Thats something where like, sometimes, no words are said. Its just the presence of being around each other and just knowing you aint never alone," he said. "And thats all we need to know."Im one of the lucky ones, one of the few lucky ones, man, because a lot of our co-workers, a lot of our boys, a lot of our friends, its a family away from family. A lot of them, they are on the road alone. They leave their families. I leave my family, but Im never alone. So, I try to remind the homies, everybody thats away from their family, its hard work, its a grind, but as long as you know, man, if you got somebody, any kind of family, they aint even gotta be blood related, but if theyre there for you, theyre there for you. And thats what I think is the coolest thing."Wrestlepalooza takes place Saturday night at 7 p.m. ET.
