Rikishi Says Jimmy Uso Is ‘Ready To Go’, Hopes to See Him on WWE TV Soon

Jimmy Uso has been away from WWE since just after Wrestlemania, but his father hopes to see him return soon. In the latest episode of his podcast (via Fightful), Rikishi gave an update on Jimmy and said that he’s “ready to go.”

He said: “Jimmy’s doing fine. I think at any given moment, hopefully that Jimmy will be ready to come back, to be able to do what he loves. I’m sure he misses the fans, and I’m sure you all miss Jimmy. He’s doing great. He’s got some time to be able to rest the body, rest the mind. He’s ready to go, so hopefully we’re able to see Jimmy soon. He’s recharged. 17 years, these boys have been in there. 17 years non-stop. Of course, within 17 years, there’s injuries. But we’re taught to keep going. So for him and his brother Jey, they’ve been dominating tag team competition for a minute. The beautiful thing about [being in a] tag team is that one is hurt, the other can do most of the work just to get by. So for him to finally kind of get a break and kind of sit back and recharge a lot of the broken bones, and do a lot of therapy, whether you need it or not, daily massages, just shut down everything, shut down media, shut down personal appearances, shut down taking bumps in the ring, shut down traveling, shut everything down, and just to be able to look in your living room and look at what’s most important in your life, your family and your kids, that does the body and the mind tremendously good. It recharges your mind, your body, and your soul. He’s been out a couple months, so if you’ve been off, I can imagine he’s itching to get back too. I’m sure that he’s happy to take time off, but I’m sure, speaking from a wrestler, man, we don’t know how to sit at home, man. All we know is to get out there and grind, be it in professional wrestling or our own business.“
