Backstage News On Jimmy Uso’s Absence From WWE In Recent Weeks

WWE World Tag Team Champion Jimmy Uso has not been featured in several episodes of RAW or on overseas live events, including shows in the United Kingdom and Ireland. His absence became particularly noticeable as fans observed Jey Uso appearing solo, with resonating "YEET" chants echoing through arenas, notably in Belfast.

According to Dave Meltzer in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Jimmy’s absence is related to a “family situation” and is not due to health issues, creative plans, or past off-screen incidents. Meltzer emphasized that WWE has a longstanding policy of granting talent time off for real-life priorities, especially when family matters are involved. This approach appears to be consistent in Jimmy’s case, as his situation is being managed discreetly without drawing attention on television.

There is currently no information about a timetable for Jimmy Uso’s return, but updates will be provided as they become available.

Meanwhile, Jey Uso has continued to shoulder the responsibilities for the RAW brand. The Usos captured the WWE World Tag Team Championship on December 29 by defeating Dragon Lee and AJ Styles. Since then, Jey has been appearing on his own. Jey Uso, whose real name is Jonathan Fatu, is a former WWE Tag Team Champion and is best known for his involvement in the Bloodline storyline with Roman Reigns.
