Jimmy Uso’s Status After Rikishi’s Request for Prayers Raised Concerns

WWE Superstar Jimmy Uso has been absent from SmackDown since the episode following WrestleMania 40, and fans have been eagerly awaiting his return. After suffering an injury, Jimmy took time off to recover, but recent posts from his father, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, raised concerns about his well-being.

The changes within The Bloodline storyline, including Solo Sikoa replacing Jimmy alongside Tama Tonga, left many fans wondering when Jimmy would return to WWE programming.

On Twitter, Rikishi shared a heartfelt message, asking fans to pray for his son’s strength and health, referring to him by his real name, Jonathan Fatu. Rikishi posted a video of Jimmy Uso with the caption:

“Dear GOD 🙏🏾 for strength & health to continue #JimmyUso #wwe #Bloodline #Anoai #Fatu Stay prayed for my boy #JonathanFatu.”

In response to Rikishi’s post, Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful provided an update, reassuring fans that Jimmy is doing fine. Sapp mentioned that WWE sources confirmed they had spoken to Jimmy Uso, who assured them that he was okay, though no additional details were provided.

“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,” Sapp tweeted.

Jey Uso previously hinted that his twin brother would be returning to WWE television soon. While fans are relieved to hear that Jimmy is okay, his comeback timeline remains unclear. All that’s left now is to wait and see when Jimmy Uso will make his triumphant return to the ring.
