Rikishi Comments On The Usos Winning Smackdown Tag Team Titles

The Usos captured the Smackdown tag-team championships on Sunday for a record 4th time. They defeated Shane McMahon and the Miz, ending their reign after just 21 days. WWE Hall of Famer, and father of the Usos, Rikishi, took to Instagram to comment on his sons winning the titles yet again.

"#AndNew 6x @wwe Tag team champions .. @jonathanfatu and @uceyjucey ( Josh Fatu ) @thesamoandynasty legacy continues there’s nothing else to prove Twins .. Congratulations your hard work in the industry will and never be denied in the @Wwe or anywhere else in the wrestling 🌍 #UsosIs$$$$ #TooLegitToPassUpOn #TimesUp #SoonToBeFreeAgents or Not - @rikishi sons #samoamosamoa🇼🇸🇦🇸 •"

Rikishi quotes his son Jonathan Fatu (Jimmy Uso) in the post.

“You go out there day in and day out and you grind and you bust your ass. As soon as you slip one time you got the world against you, you know?” “It’s hard to go out like that with the mindset thinking everyone out there’s against you. Until you go out there and you show them what you’re really made of. “ – Jonathan Fatu

Jimmy and Jey Uso are only under contract to WWE until this April. It was noted on Wrestling Observer radio recently that the brothers had not signed new contracts as of one week ago. Things could have changed since then without it being public knowledge, however.

The Usos are 6x WWE tag-team champions, twice before the brand-split, and then 4x over as the Smackdown tag-team champions. They were awarded the Slammy for WWE Tag Team of the Year in 2014 and 2015.
