Rikishi Asks Fans To 'Pray' For Jimmy Uso
Rikishi statement on Jimmy Uso asks for 'prayers'
Sep 19, 2024
WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi recently sent out a tweet that had fans concerned.
Taking to X, the 58-year-old wrote "Dear GOD [pray emoji] for strength & health to continue #JimmyUso #wwe #Bloodline #Anoai #Fatu Stay prayed for my boy #JonathanFatu", accompanied by a black-and-white gif of Jimmy rubbing his hands backstage.
Naturally, some fans worried that the multi-time tag team champion may be experiencing some sort of serious health issue.
Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp sought to alleviate fears, tweeting "In following up with people in WWE, they say that they've spoken to Jimmy Uso, who says he's fine. I don't have any further context beyond that".
Jimmy Uso hasn't been seen on WWE television since he was kicked out of The Bloodline on the April 12 edition of SmackDown.
A subsequent report noted that Jimmy was set to take time off for an injury. In early August, Jimmy's twin brother Jey claimed that his sibling would be back 'soon'.
It is widely expected that Jimmy will play a part in the rumoured WarGames match between Solo Sikoa's iteration of The Bloodline and a version headed by Roman Reigns at Survivor Series (on November 30).
