Rikishi wanted WWE to "do the right thing" with Jey Uso's quest for the Intercontinental Championship
Rikishi has become quite vocal lately on Jey Uso's booking on Monday Night RAW. Thus, the main event of the latest episode of the red brand could not be an exception.
The Samoan Stinker wanted WWE to "do the right thing" and book The Yeet Master to dethrone Bron Breakker and become the new Intercontinental Champion. This is exactly what happened on the latest edition of RAW.
"Let’s get a round of applause on that one. I hope they do the right thing...I can feel all the heat coming my way. I’m just speaking as a father, though... So, let’s see what happens. We’ll see what can possibly happen. The way I see the tables turning, I see it turning for the Yeet Man, and then we’ll see from there. Or it might be an outside interference," Rikishi said on his podcast a few days ago, via Yahoo Sports. [H/T Fightful]
The WWE Hall of Famer has been linked with a return to the company to become a part of The Bloodline storyline. With his son now a champion, Rikishi's potential comeback could take place sooner rather than later.
