That Rikishi, he’s a big shot now, in the WWE Hall of Fame, you know. But my story, it’s about his boys, The Usos. They’re twins, those two. Born the same day, just minutes apart. August 22, 1985, that’s the day they came into this world, those two are named Jimmy and Jey. Strong boys, good boys. Wrestlers, just like their daddy.
The Usos and Their Daddy Rikishi
Now, their daddy, Rikishi, he was a wrestler too, a big name back in the day. And not just him, the whole family, they’re all wrestlers. It’s in their blood, I reckon. Samoan blood, tough and strong. They call it the Anoa’i family. Big name. The Usos, they were meant to be wrestlers, just like their daddy, and their uncles, and their granddaddies before them. They trained since they were little. Rikishi, he taught them everything he knew. Smart Man. He is the Usos father.
Those two boys, Jimmy and Jey, they’re always together. Like two peas in a pod. When they were little, they played football, good at it too. But wrestling, that’s where their hearts were. They started small, in some little place called Florida Championship Wrestling. That was back in 2009. But they were good, those two, real good. They learned from the best, their daddy, you know.
Jimmy and Jey Uso
- Jimmy Uso, that’s one.
- Jey Uso, that’s the other.
Can’t tell them apart sometimes. They were born the same day. Twins, like I said. They even wrestle together, as a team. The Usos, that’s what they call themselves. They wrestle good, those two. They got all these fancy moves, jumping around, throwing each other. It’s a sight to see, I tell you. And the crowd, they love them. They cheer and they holler. Those Usos, they know how to put on a show.
They learned from the best. Their daddy, he was one of the best. And their uncle, Umaga. He was a good wrestler too. He is their father’s brother. They loved him like a father. Now he’s gone, bless his soul. But The Usos, they remember him. They wrestle for him, for their daddy, for their whole family.
The Usos’ Family
That Anoa’i family, they’re something else. Big family, all wrestlers. They stick together, those Samoans. They help each other out. The Usos, they got cousins who wrestle too. One of them, big fella, name of Roman Reigns. He’s a big shot now, just like their daddy. They call their group the Bloodline. Strong name, ain’t it? Sounds tough, just like them. They are the Usos family.
Rikishi, the Usos father. He must be so proud of his boys. Two sons and all his family, making a name for themselves, carrying on the family tradition. It’s a good story, ain’t it? A story about family, and wrestling, and sticking together. That’s what it’s all about, ain’t it? Family. Those Usos, they got a good family. A strong family. And they’re good boys, those two. Good wrestlers. Good sons.
The Usos in WWE
Now they’re in the big leagues, the WWE. That’s where all the big wrestlers go. The Usos, they wrestle there now. On SmackDown, that’s the show they’re on. They’re tag team champions, those two. That means they’re the best. They beat everyone else. They’re strong, those two. And fast. And smart. They know how to win. Rikishi trained them well. He must be so proud of his boys, the Usos in WWE, holding those belts, being the best. It’s a dream come true, ain’t it?
But it ain’t just about winning. It’s about respect. The Usos, they respect their daddy. They respect their family. They respect the business. That’s what Rikishi taught them. Be tough, be strong, but be respectful. That’s what makes a good wrestler. That’s what makes a good man.
So, that’s the story of The Usos. Two boys, twins, from a big wrestling family. They learned from the best, their daddy, Rikishi. They worked hard, they trained hard, and now they’re on top of the world. Champions. But they ain’t forgot where they came from. They ain’t forgot their family. They ain’t forgot the lessons their daddy taught them. That’s what makes them special. That’s what makes them The Usos.
