Wrestling's BIG DUMB IDIOTS Who Thought They Were COOL! ?

8. Jimmy Uso

Logan Paul Domink Mysterio

At last, an in-character one of these!

Jimmy Uso, as of 2023, might have morphed into the best version of himself. Or second best, because the clown heel chewing scenery in SmackDown segments couldn't have existed without a babyface come-up a year earlier.

A SummerSlam 2023 heel turn on brother Jey was initially rendered nonsensical when the company seemed to retcon everything he'd stood up for in the first place, but his increasingly stupid attempts to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Roman Reigns has helped give the 'Tribal Chief' gimmick one last lease of life before Cody Rhodes stubs it out at WrestleMania 40.

His on-the-spot attitude changes, his mimicking of Reigns' actions in his absence and his hilarious lack of self-awareness have given Solo Sikoa and Paul Heyman new nonsense to cope with, and WWE an inexplicably possible brother Vs brother match on the 'Grandest Stage' next year.

In 2023, The Usos made history teaming together in the main event. A year later, and they might do the same against each other.
