5 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE SmackDown (May 21)

4. Roman Guilt-Tripping Jey Uso

The family drama continued between Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso when Jey informed his 'Tribal Chief' that he'd be wrestling alongside his brother next week. When Jey said 'we", Reigns kinda' lost it. Then, like a magnificent bastard, Roman deployed more mental manipulation on his 'Right Hand Man'.

He said that "we" meant them, not Jimmy. This mental torture is something Reigns does so well in these segments, and the slow-burn feel to an inevitable split from both brothers is welcome. Being honest, it is almost time to cut Jey free and let him waltz off into the tag division with Jimmy.

That's where they'd be most effective.

The Usos can be Roman's reps in the tag leagues if WWE wish, but it might be better if they end Jey's association with Roman full stop. That tale is starting to hang on for dear life a bit now that Jimmy is back on screens weekly.
