Despite the SmackDown season premiere and the return of Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso remains absent from WWE. Fans have been eagerly anticipating the return of the Samoan Twin, but it has yet to materialize. However, many are confused as to why Jimmy Uso did not return to the blue brand, especially during such a special SmackDown episode.
In this article, we will discuss three reasons why Jimmy has not returned to Friday Night SmackDown yet.
#3. WWE might be planning a bigger stage for Jimmy Uso's return

Corey Graves deleted his Tweet! More details HERE.
One of the reasons why WWE hasn't brought back Jimmy Uso yet is that they could be saving his return for a bigger stage. This bigger stage could be Bad Blood 2024, where the Samoan Twin could make his comeback during the Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes vs. Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu tag team match.
In this scenario, the numbers game might favor the new Bloodline, but Jimmy could return to even the odds and side with The Original Tribal Chief.
A return at a premium live event is certainly a bigger platform for Jimmy's comeback than the SmackDown season premiere. Especially with the OTC competing at that PLE, fans will be glued to the show, making it a great opportunity for Jimmy’s return.
#2. WWE might be waiting for the perfect time
Another reason behind the absence of the Samoan Twin on the recent SmackDown episode could be that the Stamford-based promotion is waiting for the perfect moment. The current chapter of the Bloodline saga is expected to continue for months, likely till the end of 2024.
With this in mind, WWE needs to maintain the momentum of this family drama to keep fans engaged, which is why they might be putting off Jimmy's return for the right time.
They’ve already had Roman Reigns return to the show and made his match official for Bad Blood 2024, which is a significant development for the Bloodline saga. WWE might be saving Jimmy's return for the coming weeks to add even more intrigue and excitement to the ongoing story.
#1. Triple H might want fans to get desperate for Jimmy Uso's return
The Triple H-led regime has brought many changes to the storytelling approach in the Stamford-based promotion. One key aspect is how The Game creates anticipation, making fans wait for something they want as soon as possible. In the current scenario, the return of Jimmy Uso is one of those things.
Fans are eagerly tuning in to SmackDown every week, hoping for the comeback of the former Undisputed Tag Team Champion. By delaying his return, it seems that the Chief Content Officer may be building up desperation among fans for Jimmy Uso's return, ensuring that when he finally appears, he receives a monstrous pop.
This could also be a reason behind his absence from the recent SmackDown season premiere.
