Jey Uso was spotted on SmackDown a few weeks ago without his brother Jimmy, which is because Jimmy suffered a knee injury in the Triple Threat Tag Team Championship match back at WWE WrestleMania.

Uso came up short in the match as John Morrison was able to retain the championships for his team, but they later lost them in the rematch a few days later to The New Day.
The Wrestling Observer confirmed that the knee injury took place at WrestleMania and that Jimmy could be looking at 6-9 months out of action from WWE. That means that he is looking at October as the earliest he can make his return.

That being said, if the injury is much worse than first thought, Uso may be looking at next year's Royal Rumble as the pay-per-view to aim for.
As already noted, his brother Jey is still being used as a solo star by WWE in his absence, while his wife Naomi has also been spotted on WWE TV a number of times in recent weeks.
