When did the Usos sign their contract?
The Usos signed their most recent WWE contract in 2019, for 5 years. The deal gave a pay raise for the Twin Stars, to a combined $500,000 in a year. However, this deal does not include their other sources of income such as their merchandise, endorsements, and campaigns.
Anyhow, in a shocking turn of events, Jey Uso announced that he would be quitting WWE after his contract expires in the coming year. Upon hearing this, the fans gave a mixed response, unsure of what to make of the announcement.
Only a contract renewal of both Jimmy and Jey Usos would end the confusion for the followers. Otherwise, many questions will remain to answer- Will one of the best Tag Teams of WWE finally reunite? Will Jey and Jimmy Uso continue their fight to the top? Or is Jey seriously going to quit the business out of anger towards his twin brother?
How long is left in the Usos’ contract in 2023?
WWE stated that the Usos signed a 5-year contract in 2019. If this is the case, there should only be less than a year remaining in both Jey and Jimmy’s contracts.
After the events transpired in the Summerslam, Jey Uso announced that he no longer desired to be a part of WWE. He was not convinced by the claims Jimmy made and the Twins' reunion looks less likely to happen.
The fate of both of the Uso brothers will be decided in 2024 when their contracts expire. For now, it is almost confirmed that they will not be signing a new contract to extend their stay in a revamped WWE.
Jey Uso Contract
Jey Uso signed a contract along with his twin brother in 2019 for an agreement of 5 years. The deal consisted of a salary package of $250,000 apart from the merchandise and endorsement incomes.
Jey’s Contract is about to expire soon and he has announced his departure from WWE following the unforgivable betrayal committed by his fellow counterpart. Jimmy’s shocking confrontation cost him his best personal achievement of becoming the Tribal Chief and the WWE Undisputed Universal Champion.
For now, it is confirmed that Jey Uso is no more a part of the bloodline. Only time will tell whether he will withdraw his announcement of quitting SmackDown and WWE to sign a fresh contract with the company.
Jimmy Uso Contract
Jimmy Uso signed his most recent contract with WWE in 2019, along with his twin brother and tag team partner Jey. The contract length was 5 years and included a base salary of $250,000. After the recent break-up of the Usos, following the dramatic storyline of the Bloodline Jimmy Uso’s future in WWE has become bleak and uncertain. Considering his ability to adapt and team up with other stars of the Bloodline, such as Solo Sikoa.
If things take a shocking turn yet again, Jimmy and Jey could dramatically reunite as the Legendary Usos and sign a contract extension with WWE. But the reports suggest that this is highly unlikely. The era of the Usos might be coming to an end and the fans will remember the history they made with WWE.
