Defending His Sons’ WrestleMania Match
During an interview on Rikishi Fatu Off The Top, Rikishi showed his sons’ achievement of finding their ideal partner with pride. Although he thought they gave a great performance, he thought they could have done better.
Rikishi said that he had wanted to be involved in the match and have more time. Though he was not invited to take part, he treasured the importance of the occasion for their family.
Rikishi admitted that he had little influence over decisions, even though he regretted not being able to share the stage with his sons. He was nevertheless pleased with his sons’ efforts in spite of the lost chance.
Jimmy Uso was kicked out of The Bloodline just as Jey Uso prepared to battle Damian Preist for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The brothers’ possible reunion raises issues for the future.
