WWE SmackDown Tag Team champions The Usos recently spoke with Pensacola News Journal to promote WrestleMania 34, which is slated to take place on Sunday, April 8, 2018, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.

This event airs on pay-per-view and WWE Network. It’s the most successful and longest-running professional wrestling event in history. Both Raw and SmackDown rosters will be featured.

The Usos have never wrestled on the main card of the biggest event of the year for the sports entertainment company. However, they are holding out hope.

“I don’t think it could happen, it’s gonna happen. Me and my bro keep saying, ‘This is the year,'” said Jey Uso in a recent phone interview with the News Journal. “And if for some reason we’re not on the main card, we’re doing the people wrong, man. The WWE Universe ain’t getting their money’s worth. We’re the best thing running right now, straight out the 8-5-0, right down the street from WrestleMania, man.”

“This year is probably hands down one of our hottest years,” said Jimmy Uso. “WrestleMania changes by the hour, by the minute, so I’m nervous about it.”


The Usos have been five-time tag team champions. By breaking this down, WWE Tag Team Championship twice in 2014, SmackDown Tag Team Champions on three different occasions in 2017. They were the first team to win both the Raw Tag Team Championship and SmackDown Tag Team Championship, which was previously known as WWE Tag Team Championship.

Although they started out as babyfaces, they became stale and knew that a change had to be made. Thus, they turned heel.

“The heel change would have never worked if that baby face phase didn’t go as long as it did,” Jey Uso said, referring to their seven-year run as good guys. “The heel change just made it more real. We get to be us, we could talk the way we want to, dress the way we want to, it was like the ball was in our court now. And it took a lot of hard work to finally get the ball, you feel me?”
