Rikishi is upset with Jey Uso and Rhea Ripley's angle on WWE TV
Jey Uso has expressed his desire to take Ripley out on a date. When he recently signaled to her to call him, she headed backstage with a smile.
Shortly after, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi spoke about his son's creative direction on the Off the Top podcast. He wasn't happy at all with the storyline. Check out his comments below:
“Summerslam, where’s Yeet (Jey Uso) at? ‘I don’t know. Let’s write him in that he likes Mami.’ Mami? That’s the best that those writers got? Let’s write this guy into a relationship with Mami? What are you trying to do—break his marriage up? Y’all can’t put him in a good storyline, so what you gonna do now? God forbid you guys try to tell him, or tell her, ‘Tongue kiss each other on Raw.’ Sh**. That better not happen.”
Jey is one of the most popular superstars on the WWE roster. He receives loud chants on a weekly basis, and many fans are hopeful that he will win a top title someday,
