Some Lesser Known Facts About Jimmy Uso
- It is not known if Jimmy Uso smokes.
- Jimmy Uso does consume alcohol.
- Jimmy Uso, a member of the renowned Anoa’i family, is part of the tag-team duo known as The Usos. He shares a familial connection with former WWE superstars Rosey and Yokozuna, as they are his first cousins once removed. Additionally, he is closely related to Roman Reigns, who is currently a prominent figure in WWE. Furthermore, Jimmy Uso is the nephew of the late wrestler Umaga.
- Although Jimmy was a passionate football player throughout his high school and university years, he only competed as a linebacker for a single season.
- The Usos had to go through over three auditions before they were able to leave a lasting impression on the WWE selection team. During an interview, they admitted that their performances in the initial two tryouts were completely unsuccessful, despite having iconic figures like The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels on the selection panel.
- Jimmy Uso was the initial recruit to WWE’s Florida Championship Wrestling developmental program as his younger twin, Jey, had to undergo surgery for a persistent knee injury. However, despite this, the two still collaborate as a tag-team on WWE TV.
- When their entrance music starts playing, it is common to see The Usos performing the ‘Siva Tau’, a traditional Samoan war dance. Notably, Samoa’s national Rugby and Australian Rules football teams also engage in the Siva Tau before international matches. As they dance, The Usos chant lines in Samoan that convey the message, “I approach fully ready, my power is at its highest, clear the path and step aside, for this Manu is extraordinary.”
- During an amusing incident shared on the Talk is Jericho podcast, Jimmy Uso disclosed that during their high school days, he played a prank by pretending to be his twin brother Jey and broke up with Jey’s girlfriend without any valid reason. Surprisingly, this prank did not harm the genuine connection between the couple, as the same young lady eventually became Jey’s wife.
