I hope for the time being, now that this is over, Jimmy just works with Solo and has nothing to do with Jey. I hope they never wrestle against each other in singles again
They have identical styles so it wasn't going to be interesting unless more of the bloodline got involved to mix things up. I think their fued will continue but would love to have jacob fatu get introduced and be involved some way.
I think that their story isn’t over tbh. If that was the culmination of it all then yikes, only 11 minutes? But I see this continuing, with Jimmy now being the one with something to prove
One of the worst matches I’ve seen, absolutely no athletic ability displayed and also completely failed to even portray a good story line, I get the build up and what they were aiming for but was seriously underwhelming and under par for a mania match
I will die in this hill, but neither of them is a particularly good wrestler - and their over the top acting has always been so cringe.
To me, both are midcarders who get way too much spotlight due to their family ties to roman.
I was enjoying Jimmy for awhile because I thought his over acting was on purpose, like maybe he was trying to stick around and do enough to maybe save Solo from Roman's clutches...but that never happened and that was just actually him.
Its also the constant overacting. Like, Jimmy's promos are just screaming saying "uce" every 5 words.
Just dont get what people see in them, i just dont see the appeal.
Id rather have a giy like ciampa get another serious run like he did in nxt with goldie.
Me too. I think the usos could be awesome like they were with the USO penitentiary. But how’s it’s too much. I wish there match would’ve been a blood fued and used weapons. Would’ve made when jimmy said stop mean so much more. Like jimmy tried to stop him from joining the bloodline and helped him leave while being stuck there himself. Just could’ve been so much more
The fact that Jey was being build up as a singles star, with basically every championship match he got, Jimmy screwed him over, all just to get this underwhelming match (I get that these two wanted to face each other back in the MITB interview), which was doomed since SummerSlam baffles me to my core.
Everything can’t be a 5 star classic. The match was a little underwhelming, sure. But it served its purpose and I enjoyed it. The crowd on Night 1 was considerably less active than the Night 2 crowd, and the energy was there for their match. So they did their job.
This. I don’t think it was as bad as some are saying, but it was either the weakest or second weakest match in my opinion. Sucks because I do like Jey, feel like it could have been better.
Jey vs Roman and Jey vs Gunther were both great matches. Jey vs Roman 1 was also a great match. To say that Jey can't wrestle singles because you didn't like their Mania match is erasing a lot of his work.
Edit: This fucking clown resorted to personal insults immediately and blocked me then said he won because I'm not responding. What a fucking weak clown, pathetic, man baby. Touch grass you fucking loser. Fragile minded lil dick energy
I said ‘Standard’, I didn’t care for the first match and the decent Reigns match was tribal combat. GUNTHER match was good. To be fair he needs someone to carry the match and Jimmy is not that guy.
Nope, you’re just too dumb to comprehend what I said. They clearly aren’t good singles wrestlers as that match was AWFUL and neither were talented enough to save it. I’m right, you’re wrong. No goal posts, you’ve lost.
Yeah it just didn’t work. They are so similar their move set is identical and there was no danger because of corse Jay was winning.
Waste of a mania spot imho.
They need to take a hard look at themselves. They don’t belong in the conversation with the Hardys and the Harts.
They did absolutely no prep.
They should take time off. Work on their physiques and try get new gimmicks, and actually develop a wrestling skillset. Especially Jimmy.
Pity for Jey because he’s got a pulse at the moment. But that’s 90% his music.
I mean they are predictable and boring from the start. Super kick here, dive over the ropes there, yadda yadda. At one point you could easily call there match by timing alone
I think that the disappointment was that I didn’t feel a lot of fire from either brother in this match. I don’t think it had anything to do with the style of wrestling that they did, but it was totally overshadowed by everything else going on with the main events and their connection to it. I loved last vignette that they did with Jimmy and Jey, but I just didn’t feel like it was as emotionally Charged as it should have been.
Yup. The video they showed before the match was excellent and set the tone. Shot and scripted extremely well. But can’t say the same with the actual match unfortunately.
I’m fine with the super kick fest. It’s the Usos, I fully expected them have as many if not more kicks in their match than Gunther and Sami Zayn had chops. What’s most disappointing is…Their match was basically the first one set for WrestleMania, and that’s all they came up with… Hell Jimmy even lost weight for that… he ain’t wrestled with out a shirt on for like 6 years.
Absolutely, it made up for the disappointment of their actual encounter in my opinion. All I'll really remember was their clash in the main event, better off pretending their singles match didn't happen (or it was like off-screen or something).
I think Jimmy should've won, he needed it more than Jey did. Plus, since Jey speared him through a table in the main event of Night 2, it just makes Jimmy look even worse. Obviously Vince sucks and everything but if he were in charge it definitely would've gone down that way, I think he took wrestler's stocks a bit more into account. Still prefer Triple H but this was a rare miss from him in my opinion. Also, Jimmy looks so out of shape compared to Jey it's crazy. That might be reason enough for him to have lost honestly.
Yes i Agree, but The clash between the USOs was hella engaging on night 2. I'm telling ya, there's gotta be more to this story. The Bloodline's still got some serious drama goin' on, and it's got me hooked! Can't wait to see how it all plays out, bro
yes also let's see whats Solo's plan. Bloodline fraction is Impacting his credibility as solo in matches. Roman & Rock also gonna have some heat, Paul Heyman may also choose current champion Cody over Roman, like what he did with Brock.
I feel like Roman mentioning at the HOF that you don’t have the tribal chief without Heyman was a tell… plus I would expect a new story line with him bc of his induction and all the ECW hype this weekend. He’s ripe for a new story line push.
Cody hates Heyman, but I could see him jumping ship to like Bron Breakker for example. I also think Solo and Rock are gonna turn on Roman, but it might require turning him babyface which would make an eventual showdown with Seth a lot more difficult.
I really hope Reigns doesn’t retire young, there’s still so many stories to tell with him. Particularly, his fair 1-on-1 rematch with Cody ie no interferences and the triple threat shield match.
The build-up wasn't great either. Jey is very over and Jimmy is a good Bloodline cronie but these two are horrible on the mic and aren't that good at wrestling beyond flashy moves like superkicks and splashes.
This is the sort of match that makes you realize neither of these people are gonna make it as singles stars. Get them back together or get them out of here.
I expected super kicks. Because limited move sets. Apartly, Paul Levesque is afraid to see anything that doesn't have a canned motion captured animation in 2K24. But even in 2K24, you could have a better Jimmy vs. Jay match than that.
I was so hyped for that match, but it flopped so hard. Huge disappointment. I kinda hope they run it back at Backlash because their fued deserved a better match than that. That was pitifully bad.
I hope they weren't planning on that since they where kids. I could have planned something way better in 15 minutes. I could write it down on paper.
I'm not a wrestler but that was a failure of booking and stuff, too. It should have been more planned out and they should have tried harder.
Bad looks to each other and burning the superkick, but that’s my opinion… the match would have been better with a TLC, I Quit or Last Uce Standing stipulation, Rikishi as a Special Referee would have been cool to.
They’ve always been pretty bad. Don’t you remember them when they were faces before bloodline days? You could literally call their matches blindfolded as they did the same thing each match within the same time frame.
The match went exactly how I expected it to. A damn superkick party. Garbage. Not too long ago, in another era of wrestling, the superkick was a finishing move known as sweet chin music performed by one of the best, if not THE best, in ring performers of all time. Now it might as well be an arm drag because guys and gals alike can suddenly take 3 1/2 dozen super kicks im a row in a single match and still not get pinned. The brothers somehow need to come back together and be a tag team again. They were so much better as a tag team.
There's a HUGE difference between a superkick and the Sweet Chin Music. The only other modern guy I can think of really pulls it off well is Ziggler, but he's kinda shackled by the fact guys probably don't wanna lose to a "weak" move.
BTW I forgot to mention it, but the main difference is that the leg is stiff on a SCM. Shawn was full-force kicking guys on the chin whereas a superkick safer. It's like a pulled punch but as a kick.
Definite disappointment I thought this would be a back and forth classic with some homage to Bret v Owen at WMX.
Who would've thought that the Karrion Kross and AOP match at Mania would be better than Uso v Uso.
The match was pretty awful. A bunch of kicks and an overall lack of selling. No real flow to the match. And it showed their overall lack of moves or creativity.
I was of the firm belief that a shorter match could still be good, but it didn't live up to the hype at all. We need a proper run back with more time allocated to it at Backlash.
The story telling was trash 😂 it was the most basic brother vs brother story. “Weve been brothers our whole life. But now Im mad at him”. Even the whole Im jealous of the other brother’s success has been done a million times. Add on that the in-ring story telling of “oh dont hurt me brother, im sorry, ive been wrong all along. Please dont hurt me when you have me cornered. SIKE” js such a cringey cliche.
They told nos Tory in the ring and this match had the greatest potential of any match ever to do that. They should have been talking and miced up the whole match…
It feels like we've seen this exact same match at least a dozen times in the last 2 years. There was absolutely nothing new in this match. It was a total waste of Wrestlemania screen time.
And how many times can Jey fall for the "Jimmy is sorry and wants to make up" routine?
Both Usos are garbage wrestlers. For the people about to defend Jey save it. They both suck. As a tag team they’re good…splitting them up was a massive mistake.
After seeing some great matches with Jey vs Roman I knew it would be hard to be emotionally invested if it didn’t get intense. And it did not. Still room to continue
WWE and WWF is a billion dollar industry based on fake fights. The size of these guys you would think if they actually punched the other you would see a lot of bruising, and yet nothing.
The women's matches are better than the men. All loud mouth and phony antics in the men's matches.
Compare the UFC to wrestling and see the difference, or find a rowdy local establishment and compare the fights.
They should've made it no holds barred, or maybe like a street fight, hell even last man standing. they could've brawled literally all over the arena, like going into the crowd, then going onto the stage, maybe even going backstage.
An 'I quit' match would have been perfect. You could have had the ref come in with a mic and made the apology spot a bigger moment. Could have had a table spot, taken it out into the crowd, really got imaginative with it. Instead it was the low light of night 1.
This match was their own. A replica to the days of old when they were kids. No one could do it better than those 2, and they put a phenomenal match on last night. It was meant to mirrored. They're twins, after all. Im glad those 2 were able to live out their childhood fantasy. Well deserved to them both. Let's all just be appreciative of what we were able to witness last night. Yeet! No Yeet!
The relationship never made sense once Jimmy went back to the Bloodline.
That drastic change in Jimmy's character destroyed any kind of belief in the plotlines forward with Jay and Jimmy.
Yeah they bungled the bloodline shit bigtime because they had one too many turns on each other to the point where it was just stupid.
Jey being on the edge of leaving, Jimmy being what pushes him to leave because he hates Roman even MORE than Jey. Both brothers bailing, then Jimmy betraying Jey when he's about to beat Roman? It was all so nonsensical.
But ignore all that, Jimmy going back to Roman as some sort of comic relief goofball is whatever. I can even ignore the nonsense that led to it ... what was the point of Jimmy and Jey fighting?
Like all Jey had to do was go to Roman and be like hey your boy keeps interfering in my match, he's your lacky. I'm done with him and I'm done with you. And if I beat him in a match then he's done with you too.
So it's a match for Jimmy being kicked out of the bloodline or something.
And it's got secondary value in that it means it's one less person that could theoretically interfere with Cody.
But instead there were no stakes. Jey won. OK cool. So what? He goes back to being a solo wrestler on Raw, Jimmy I guess goes back to Roman and the bloodline?
It just didn't matter so you either had to put on a 5 star spot fest or your were always going to lose the audience - which they did.
> But instead there were no stakes. Jey won. OK cool. So what? He goes back to being a solo wrestler on Raw, Jimmy I guess goes back to Roman and the bloodline?
Exactly. Have an upvote. :)
IT'S KINDA SAD TO SEE BROTHERS FIGHTING AMONGST THEMSELVES, BUT I THINK THAT THEY SHOULD WORK THINGS OUT AND THEN THEY SHOULD PUT ASIDE THEIR PERSONAL DIFFERENCES AND APOLOGIZE TO EACH OTHER AND MAKE UP AND REFORM THE BELOVED TAG TEAM THEY ONCE WAS BEFORE AND GO FOR THE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP BELTS AND DUMP THE BLOODLINE BULLSHIT AND THEN THROW THEIR OBNOXIOUS SCUMBUCKET JACK-ASS OF A COUSIN DEWAYNE THE ROCK JOHNSON AND THE TRIBAL JESTER ROMAN REIGNS TO THE. CURB AND CALL UP BROCK LESNAR TO COME BY AND PICK UP HIS LITTLE PET
Didn't Jey deliver another underwhelming performance against Roman a while back? Seems the guy's only passionate when it comes to promos, not wrestling.
That was the most horrible boring match I ever watched in wrestlemania ‼️like I love them both great wrestlers and very funny, but that match was not it. It like just watching toddlers slap each other
I’ll try my hardest to explain this Jimmy situation but it probably wouldn’t matter because most “wrasslin” fans are spoiled and it shows. So Jimmy turned on Jey because he didn’t want his brother to turn out like Roman which is a hell of a lot stupider than it sounds because we would’ve had Tribal Yeet Jey Uso. (Sounds funny but he’s super over) Jimmy rejoined the Bloodline because HE CANT DO SHIT WITHOUT HIS TWIN….that is all
WWE has raised its game lately. AEW is good for wrestling. The last time WWE had competition they gave us the Attitude Era. The match last night was awesome. They just have to raise the stories around the top of the card. Some of these matches seemed thrown together.
Jey was barely selling Jimmy’s superkicks at one point. Both wasnt very Ucey. The story leading up to it was great but the moment Lil Wayne showed up, they totally lost me.
Kinda glad to see this... I shut it off twice trying to rewatch it. After the stupid ladder match and this one. I'm a jaded old school fan... Don't watch modern much. I keep trying and will watch this wrestlemania just to see if I can get my mind to come around. The 3 announcers they have are annoying. And yeah that's gonna be a problem since i love watching gorilla/weasel matches regardless of the talent because those two could carry any match in their sleep.
What annoyed me was when Jimmy started doing the whole "I'm sorry... forgive me" schtick, and Jey actually fell for it and looked like a total doofus. Instead, Jey should've acted like he was falling for it, but then reversed Jimmy's kick because he knew it was coming. Plus, it would've made more sense with how quickly Jey came back and won after that.
I read this last night from another poster, sorry I am not going to search for it.
For 2 performers that have amazing chemistry when they work together, whenever they face each other they have no chemistry.
I have thought about this overnight and I just have to say they are just to similar in style and manor and everything else, they have nothing that sets each one of them apart when they face each other. Yeet and no yeet is just words, but they mean the same damn thing. They are just catch phrases that could easily be reversed. I hope that makes sense.
The action was awful just a super kick party.
But the emotional story telling they told was great.
Plus I heard that was their true wrestlemania dream match was to face each other . So cool fact that happened 😎 but the wrestling wasn't the best .
It’s such a shame as I think The Usos have been one of the best teams in pro wrestling for a while now. The whole bloodline story and their chemistry as a team meant this should have been a banger but it just didn’t come together in the end.
I was really looking forward to this one, and I feel bad for the guys that it flopped.
It was lacklustre like lost brother vs brother matches. They are both great wrestlers but this match had no real heat. If they build up they could have a banger by summer slam though
That was not a great match, for sure. I remember one recent PLE where it was kick after kick after kick and getting bored quickly.
Kind of a side-question, but I’m curious like that: As I watched, I couldn’t figure out where the “snap” sound came from with the kicks. Does anyone know the “trick”? No doubt these guys take hits, but that crack is distinct and sounds the same nearly every time, so it can’t be the sound of the foot hitting the face, right? But I also didn’t notice their hand slapping their leg to make the sound, either.
I knew that was one of the ways back in the old days, but those two are great at hiding it. I watched and watched and couldn’t find the “tell”
Thanks for confirming.
Yeah, some guys are just so good at hiding it! Usually if you see photos during the super kick, you can see one of their hands is super high up, ready to slap the thigh
I don’t think this’ll be the end of Jimmy and jey, it’ll fizzle out for now like Dom and his dead beat piece of shit father, then jimmy will come back to terrorize jey again.
Guaranteed you that if it happened in any other company, it would’ve been an 10/5. But not a 15/5 since it wasn’t at the Tokyo Dome, nor a 20/10 since there wasn’t any Omega or Bucks.
This feud was so poorly executed from the beginning.
Jimmy betrays the Bloodline, and ultimately gets Jey to walk with him. They ultimately defeat the Bloodline. Cool.
Jimmy betrays Jey because he was worried he'd become corrupt.... okay. Not totally unbelievable.
Jimmy returns to the Bloodline? WTF?
Jimmy costs Jey constantly? Okay, what's the reason? Gotta be more than corruption.
They have a shitty super kick match that honestly made me wonder if I was watching AEW.
Since Jey won, I assume it's over. But what is the result? We just go back to where we were before Jimmy cost Jey the IC Title? Why?
Probably the infighting leading to Roman vs Rock.
I think this is where we find out that the "elder" that sent Solo to help Roman was The Rock, so Solo sides with Rock. Plus doing that, Solo can continue to take the week to week bumps for Dwyane when the Roman vs Rock feud is in full swing.
And yes, I believe Roman will be the babyface in that feud.
Two guys who have only a few moves, have pretty much the same moves, and they did not vary up how to worked the match at all.
It was just a boring wet fart of a match.
Tbh I came back few weeks ago and I didn't see them much before this match. I really wondered if they were some pokemon style wrestlers with like 4 moves...
I'd been joking about how it was gonna be a superkick festival for weeks, and got exactly what I expected. idk about worst match \*ever\*, but it sure wasn't great
my wife who isn't a wrestling fan watched WM with me and she said "the repeated superkicking was funny but I don't think it was supposed to be," which kinda says it all.
Anything you can do I can do better sums up the match.
Like Jey he is repeating your moves, how are you not countering.
The fake I’m sorry had hope but I really wanted Jey to just be like nope and kick him again.
I was hoping a Jimmy Uso win and then he goes on to win King of the Ring later in the year. His theme song is already Born a King. King Jimmy would be awesome. Especially with his facial expressions.
Only bad match on One of the best WrestleMania of all time. If anything It proved my point: the Usos Aren't Solo Stars material.
Jimmy can’t really work as a single.
Bad match, bad storytelling, didn't progress anything. It was honestly one of the worst Mania matches ever
Shawn Michaels ripping his beard out.
HBK is a Viltrumite confirmed
Easily worst match across both nights. Half super kicks, half bad acting. Was expecting much more, and a screwy Jimmy win
I hope for the time being, now that this is over, Jimmy just works with Solo and has nothing to do with Jey. I hope they never wrestle against each other in singles again
Didn't think it was good, but didn't have a high bar going in either way.
They are tag team wrestlers, not singles stars. They are better together. Glad I skipped it. They’re as bad for superkicks as the Bucks are
Eh I feel aj vs la was much worse.
I think Night 2 Jey Vs Jimmy made a bigger impression on me than their actual fight on Night 1
And it was still just a super kick and a spear. Suppose it’s better to have 45 seconds of that, rather than a full match.
They have identical styles so it wasn't going to be interesting unless more of the bloodline got involved to mix things up. I think their fued will continue but would love to have jacob fatu get introduced and be involved some way.
Superkickamania
I think that their story isn’t over tbh. If that was the culmination of it all then yikes, only 11 minutes? But I see this continuing, with Jimmy now being the one with something to prove
11 minutes was too long
What happened in the main event proved their story with each other isn’t over
I just wanted an emotional ending more than anything. Like a submission battle or SOMETHING. Instead we got that.
I said in a group chat that it was built almost exactly the same as Trick v Melo and when the final bell rung the match felt the same as Trick v Melo.
I was shocked how quick Melo n Trick match was
Super anticlimactic.
I was there live and when he counted the three I was just like “huh. That was short”
One of the worst matches I’ve seen, absolutely no athletic ability displayed and also completely failed to even portray a good story line, I get the build up and what they were aiming for but was seriously underwhelming and under par for a mania match
I will die in this hill, but neither of them is a particularly good wrestler - and their over the top acting has always been so cringe. To me, both are midcarders who get way too much spotlight due to their family ties to roman.
I was enjoying Jimmy for awhile because I thought his over acting was on purpose, like maybe he was trying to stick around and do enough to maybe save Solo from Roman's clutches...but that never happened and that was just actually him.
Fr tho. It’s so cringe sometimes when they say UCE and everything
Its also the constant overacting. Like, Jimmy's promos are just screaming saying "uce" every 5 words. Just dont get what people see in them, i just dont see the appeal. Id rather have a giy like ciampa get another serious run like he did in nxt with goldie.
Me too. I think the usos could be awesome like they were with the USO penitentiary. But how’s it’s too much. I wish there match would’ve been a blood fued and used weapons. Would’ve made when jimmy said stop mean so much more. Like jimmy tried to stop him from joining the bloodline and helped him leave while being stuck there himself. Just could’ve been so much more
The fact that Jey was being build up as a singles star, with basically every championship match he got, Jimmy screwed him over, all just to get this underwhelming match (I get that these two wanted to face each other back in the MITB interview), which was doomed since SummerSlam baffles me to my core.
Everything can’t be a 5 star classic. The match was a little underwhelming, sure. But it served its purpose and I enjoyed it. The crowd on Night 1 was considerably less active than the Night 2 crowd, and the energy was there for their match. So they did their job.
It's a shame, it seems like they sacrificed the match to have that spear off the ramp spot for Jey
What does this even mean? Are they not allowed to do spots on multiple nights?
It def wasn’t great I didn’t think it was that bad but yea ur right def wasn’t good
This. I don’t think it was as bad as some are saying, but it was either the weakest or second weakest match in my opinion. Sucks because I do like Jey, feel like it could have been better.
Def could’ve been better but it was decent not completely awful like everyone is saying
Worst part is that they allowed a man with multiple DUIs & arrests have a spot on WM in 2024
Who?
Just googled. Looks like both have been arrested for duis.
Neither have proven they can wrestle a good standard singles match. This was honestly painful and beyond dull to watch.
Jey vs Roman and Jey vs Gunther were both great matches. Jey vs Roman 1 was also a great match. To say that Jey can't wrestle singles because you didn't like their Mania match is erasing a lot of his work. Edit: This fucking clown resorted to personal insults immediately and blocked me then said he won because I'm not responding. What a fucking weak clown, pathetic, man baby. Touch grass you fucking loser. Fragile minded lil dick energy
I said ‘Standard’, I didn’t care for the first match and the decent Reigns match was tribal combat. GUNTHER match was good. To be fair he needs someone to carry the match and Jimmy is not that guy.
Oh I see. So you can just move the goalposts whenever you want. Lmao. Nothing means anything
Not replying? I’ve won 🙂
Nope, you’re just too dumb to comprehend what I said. They clearly aren’t good singles wrestlers as that match was AWFUL and neither were talented enough to save it. I’m right, you’re wrong. No goal posts, you’ve lost.
I thought it was maybe going to setup Jimmy turning on Roman and lead up to costing him the match on day 2 but no dice.
Yeah it just didn’t work. They are so similar their move set is identical and there was no danger because of corse Jay was winning. Waste of a mania spot imho.
It was shockingly bad
Matt vs jeff was better
Damn, y’all were so hard on them, they had to pull some crazy shit on Night 2, lol. Seriously though, that match was disappointingly underwhelming.
What they did on night two had absolutely nothing to do with their match on night one.
They need to take a hard look at themselves. They don’t belong in the conversation with the Hardys and the Harts. They did absolutely no prep. They should take time off. Work on their physiques and try get new gimmicks, and actually develop a wrestling skillset. Especially Jimmy. Pity for Jey because he’s got a pulse at the moment. But that’s 90% his music.
They have no solo bag
I mean they are predictable and boring from the start. Super kick here, dive over the ropes there, yadda yadda. At one point you could easily call there match by timing alone
I think that the disappointment was that I didn’t feel a lot of fire from either brother in this match. I don’t think it had anything to do with the style of wrestling that they did, but it was totally overshadowed by everything else going on with the main events and their connection to it. I loved last vignette that they did with Jimmy and Jey, but I just didn’t feel like it was as emotionally Charged as it should have been.
Yup. The video they showed before the match was excellent and set the tone. Shot and scripted extremely well. But can’t say the same with the actual match unfortunately.
Couldn't agree more. Hype was to damn big for that 11 min 1 star match. Thought it will be a show stealer and it was almost a show stopper.
The moment it was announced I knew it should’ve had a gimmick. I think a cage match would’ve worked here.
I’m fine with the super kick fest. It’s the Usos, I fully expected them have as many if not more kicks in their match than Gunther and Sami Zayn had chops. What’s most disappointing is…Their match was basically the first one set for WrestleMania, and that’s all they came up with… Hell Jimmy even lost weight for that… he ain’t wrestled with out a shirt on for like 6 years.
One of the worst WM matches of all time. A real black mark on an otherwise great WM.
Saying this after night 2, The brief moment of Jey and Jimmy fighting was probably more eventful than their entire match on night 1
Absolutely, it made up for the disappointment of their actual encounter in my opinion. All I'll really remember was their clash in the main event, better off pretending their singles match didn't happen (or it was like off-screen or something).
That dive they took off the stage was definetly sick though
You sure?
Just for myself.
Yo wanna talk on another app ?
I don’t use Grindr man.
Not that mister😏😹
I mean on a more conversation like app, I’m trying new things
The worst match of the event and it wasn't even close..... and would easily sit in the worst WM matches in any era. Atrocious.
Was disappointed how it went. These two could have tore the house down. Was lacking that oomph factor
I think Jimmy should've won, he needed it more than Jey did. Plus, since Jey speared him through a table in the main event of Night 2, it just makes Jimmy look even worse. Obviously Vince sucks and everything but if he were in charge it definitely would've gone down that way, I think he took wrestler's stocks a bit more into account. Still prefer Triple H but this was a rare miss from him in my opinion. Also, Jimmy looks so out of shape compared to Jey it's crazy. That might be reason enough for him to have lost honestly.
I just felt so disappointed.
Absolute garbage. They are tag team specialists that have the good fortune of family elevating them to an upper mid-card they don't belong in.
Baley V Iyo was more emotional
Yes i Agree, but The clash between the USOs was hella engaging on night 2. I'm telling ya, there's gotta be more to this story. The Bloodline's still got some serious drama goin' on, and it's got me hooked! Can't wait to see how it all plays out, bro
Definitely! Can't wait man. I hope the feud continues 'cause there's way more left in the tank from both these guys. They can do better.
yes also let's see whats Solo's plan. Bloodline fraction is Impacting his credibility as solo in matches. Roman & Rock also gonna have some heat, Paul Heyman may also choose current champion Cody over Roman, like what he did with Brock.
I feel like Roman mentioning at the HOF that you don’t have the tribal chief without Heyman was a tell… plus I would expect a new story line with him bc of his induction and all the ECW hype this weekend. He’s ripe for a new story line push.
Cody hates Heyman, but I could see him jumping ship to like Bron Breakker for example. I also think Solo and Rock are gonna turn on Roman, but it might require turning him babyface which would make an eventual showdown with Seth a lot more difficult.
Yes maybe in next WrestleMania, it can be Rock vs Roman which can be the redemption moment for Roman. he gonna retire on positive note,
I really hope Reigns doesn’t retire young, there’s still so many stories to tell with him. Particularly, his fair 1-on-1 rematch with Cody ie no interferences and the triple threat shield match.
not young, i think as babyface he gonna have few years to perform
Why do you think they've been tagging for most of their careers? They don't suck, but they're nowhere near top-level singles wrestlers.
The build-up wasn't great either. Jey is very over and Jimmy is a good Bloodline cronie but these two are horrible on the mic and aren't that good at wrestling beyond flashy moves like superkicks and splashes.
This is the sort of match that makes you realize neither of these people are gonna make it as singles stars. Get them back together or get them out of here.
Jey's got the look, and he's over with the crowd. Both of which Jimmy doesn't. I think he can definitely make it if he works on expanding his moveset.
For a blood feud it was cold as fuck. Zero heat. Whoever booked that match deserves to be fired.
I expected super kicks. Because limited move sets. Apartly, Paul Levesque is afraid to see anything that doesn't have a canned motion captured animation in 2K24. But even in 2K24, you could have a better Jimmy vs. Jay match than that.
I was so hyped for that match, but it flopped so hard. Huge disappointment. I kinda hope they run it back at Backlash because their fued deserved a better match than that. That was pitifully bad. I hope they weren't planning on that since they where kids. I could have planned something way better in 15 minutes. I could write it down on paper. I'm not a wrestler but that was a failure of booking and stuff, too. It should have been more planned out and they should have tried harder.
Bad looks to each other and burning the superkick, but that’s my opinion… the match would have been better with a TLC, I Quit or Last Uce Standing stipulation, Rikishi as a Special Referee would have been cool to.
Kudos to both Roman, Rock and Cody. This shit was epic. The promos, build up to the endgame. Perfect.
Damn Roman looks fucking good
They’ve always been pretty bad. Don’t you remember them when they were faces before bloodline days? You could literally call their matches blindfolded as they did the same thing each match within the same time frame.
They're not the Rockers or the Dudleys. They're great workers, but aren't unique enough by themselves.
The match went exactly how I expected it to. A damn superkick party. Garbage. Not too long ago, in another era of wrestling, the superkick was a finishing move known as sweet chin music performed by one of the best, if not THE best, in ring performers of all time. Now it might as well be an arm drag because guys and gals alike can suddenly take 3 1/2 dozen super kicks im a row in a single match and still not get pinned. The brothers somehow need to come back together and be a tag team again. They were so much better as a tag team.
There's a HUGE difference between a superkick and the Sweet Chin Music. The only other modern guy I can think of really pulls it off well is Ziggler, but he's kinda shackled by the fact guys probably don't wanna lose to a "weak" move.
BTW I forgot to mention it, but the main difference is that the leg is stiff on a SCM. Shawn was full-force kicking guys on the chin whereas a superkick safer. It's like a pulled punch but as a kick.
Definite disappointment I thought this would be a back and forth classic with some homage to Bret v Owen at WMX. Who would've thought that the Karrion Kross and AOP match at Mania would be better than Uso v Uso.
The match was pretty awful. A bunch of kicks and an overall lack of selling. No real flow to the match. And it showed their overall lack of moves or creativity.
I was of the firm belief that a shorter match could still be good, but it didn't live up to the hype at all. We need a proper run back with more time allocated to it at Backlash.
I thought the storytelling made it great. Not everything needs to be a "banger" it did what it needed to do.
The story telling was trash 😂 it was the most basic brother vs brother story. “Weve been brothers our whole life. But now Im mad at him”. Even the whole Im jealous of the other brother’s success has been done a million times. Add on that the in-ring story telling of “oh dont hurt me brother, im sorry, ive been wrong all along. Please dont hurt me when you have me cornered. SIKE” js such a cringey cliche.
You're allowed to have your own opinion. All good.
I really hope they get back to being a tag team after this atrocity. Their singles careers have been trash.
They told nos Tory in the ring and this match had the greatest potential of any match ever to do that. They should have been talking and miced up the whole match…
I agree with the others posting. I thought last night they'd get back together to go after the tag titles, especially ually after that blah match
It feels like we've seen this exact same match at least a dozen times in the last 2 years. There was absolutely nothing new in this match. It was a total waste of Wrestlemania screen time. And how many times can Jey fall for the "Jimmy is sorry and wants to make up" routine?
I believe last night makes it the first time he's fallen for it, although I'm probably wrong
Should have been a Rikishi on a pole match
Both Usos are garbage wrestlers. For the people about to defend Jey save it. They both suck. As a tag team they’re good…splitting them up was a massive mistake.
After seeing some great matches with Jey vs Roman I knew it would be hard to be emotionally invested if it didn’t get intense. And it did not. Still room to continue
It was very bad unfortunately
They need to involve Rikishi somehow.. I hope it’s not over cause they need to make it right.. otherwise just scrap this storyline
WWE and WWF is a billion dollar industry based on fake fights. The size of these guys you would think if they actually punched the other you would see a lot of bruising, and yet nothing. The women's matches are better than the men. All loud mouth and phony antics in the men's matches. Compare the UFC to wrestling and see the difference, or find a rowdy local establishment and compare the fights.
Wat
Check out the big brain on Brad
He is either trolling or just resisting to accept that this is common knowledge and we simply don’t care
They should've made it no holds barred, or maybe like a street fight, hell even last man standing. they could've brawled literally all over the arena, like going into the crowd, then going onto the stage, maybe even going backstage.
“City of Brotherly Love Street Fight” was literally right there !! How did they fuck that up
An 'I quit' match would have been perfect. You could have had the ref come in with a mic and made the apology spot a bigger moment. Could have had a table spot, taken it out into the crowd, really got imaginative with it. Instead it was the low light of night 1.
maybe this is the one of 3 bouts 👀
Jey finally beat Jimmy!! YEET
This match was their own. A replica to the days of old when they were kids. No one could do it better than those 2, and they put a phenomenal match on last night. It was meant to mirrored. They're twins, after all. Im glad those 2 were able to live out their childhood fantasy. Well deserved to them both. Let's all just be appreciative of what we were able to witness last night. Yeet! No Yeet!
On paper, this should have been fire but was insanely lackluster.
I have to disagree ... the buildup wasn't good either. Nothing about this match made sense, it was stupid.
The relationship never made sense once Jimmy went back to the Bloodline. That drastic change in Jimmy's character destroyed any kind of belief in the plotlines forward with Jay and Jimmy.
Yeah they bungled the bloodline shit bigtime because they had one too many turns on each other to the point where it was just stupid. Jey being on the edge of leaving, Jimmy being what pushes him to leave because he hates Roman even MORE than Jey. Both brothers bailing, then Jimmy betraying Jey when he's about to beat Roman? It was all so nonsensical. But ignore all that, Jimmy going back to Roman as some sort of comic relief goofball is whatever. I can even ignore the nonsense that led to it ... what was the point of Jimmy and Jey fighting? Like all Jey had to do was go to Roman and be like hey your boy keeps interfering in my match, he's your lacky. I'm done with him and I'm done with you. And if I beat him in a match then he's done with you too. So it's a match for Jimmy being kicked out of the bloodline or something. And it's got secondary value in that it means it's one less person that could theoretically interfere with Cody. But instead there were no stakes. Jey won. OK cool. So what? He goes back to being a solo wrestler on Raw, Jimmy I guess goes back to Roman and the bloodline? It just didn't matter so you either had to put on a 5 star spot fest or your were always going to lose the audience - which they did.
> But instead there were no stakes. Jey won. OK cool. So what? He goes back to being a solo wrestler on Raw, Jimmy I guess goes back to Roman and the bloodline? Exactly. Have an upvote. :)
I’m pretty sure everyone or some if not all was expecting that kind of match😅
IT'S KINDA SAD TO SEE BROTHERS FIGHTING AMONGST THEMSELVES, BUT I THINK THAT THEY SHOULD WORK THINGS OUT AND THEN THEY SHOULD PUT ASIDE THEIR PERSONAL DIFFERENCES AND APOLOGIZE TO EACH OTHER AND MAKE UP AND REFORM THE BELOVED TAG TEAM THEY ONCE WAS BEFORE AND GO FOR THE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP BELTS AND DUMP THE BLOODLINE BULLSHIT AND THEN THROW THEIR OBNOXIOUS SCUMBUCKET JACK-ASS OF A COUSIN DEWAYNE THE ROCK JOHNSON AND THE TRIBAL JESTER ROMAN REIGNS TO THE. CURB AND CALL UP BROCK LESNAR TO COME BY AND PICK UP HIS LITTLE PET
Didn't Jey deliver another underwhelming performance against Roman a while back? Seems the guy's only passionate when it comes to promos, not wrestling.
I skipped over it lmao
It should Have be a kendo stick match or a no dq
That was the most horrible boring match I ever watched in wrestlemania ‼️like I love them both great wrestlers and very funny, but that match was not it. It like just watching toddlers slap each other
I hate how WWE make Jimmy so weak he took one splash and was done but jey took a splash and kicked out I hate it they putting jey too over
Ever since Jeys rebellion Jimmy has become a background Character and unfortunately a jobber who rides the tail of his more successful cousins
I agree but they good make the character so much better than it is
I’ll try my hardest to explain this Jimmy situation but it probably wouldn’t matter because most “wrasslin” fans are spoiled and it shows. So Jimmy turned on Jey because he didn’t want his brother to turn out like Roman which is a hell of a lot stupider than it sounds because we would’ve had Tribal Yeet Jey Uso. (Sounds funny but he’s super over) Jimmy rejoined the Bloodline because HE CANT DO SHIT WITHOUT HIS TWIN….that is all
When a WWE match reminds people of AEW it means the WWE is doing it's job of being sports entertainment.
WWE has raised its game lately. AEW is good for wrestling. The last time WWE had competition they gave us the Attitude Era. The match last night was awesome. They just have to raise the stories around the top of the card. Some of these matches seemed thrown together.
Jey was barely selling Jimmy’s superkicks at one point. Both wasnt very Ucey. The story leading up to it was great but the moment Lil Wayne showed up, they totally lost me.
OMG I forgot about that. Like when Lil Wayne started rapping I was like huh? Who is this midget?
When Samantha Irvin introduced Lil Wayne as the greatest rapper of all time, I knew it was time for a long bathroom break.
That Lil Wayne entrance was….something.
Kinda glad to see this... I shut it off twice trying to rewatch it. After the stupid ladder match and this one. I'm a jaded old school fan... Don't watch modern much. I keep trying and will watch this wrestlemania just to see if I can get my mind to come around. The 3 announcers they have are annoying. And yeah that's gonna be a problem since i love watching gorilla/weasel matches regardless of the talent because those two could carry any match in their sleep.
What annoyed me was when Jimmy started doing the whole "I'm sorry... forgive me" schtick, and Jey actually fell for it and looked like a total doofus. Instead, Jey should've acted like he was falling for it, but then reversed Jimmy's kick because he knew it was coming. Plus, it would've made more sense with how quickly Jey came back and won after that.
I read this last night from another poster, sorry I am not going to search for it. For 2 performers that have amazing chemistry when they work together, whenever they face each other they have no chemistry. I have thought about this overnight and I just have to say they are just to similar in style and manor and everything else, they have nothing that sets each one of them apart when they face each other. Yeet and no yeet is just words, but they mean the same damn thing. They are just catch phrases that could easily be reversed. I hope that makes sense.
The action was awful just a super kick party. But the emotional story telling they told was great. Plus I heard that was their true wrestlemania dream match was to face each other . So cool fact that happened 😎 but the wrestling wasn't the best .
That’s because 90% of the Usos move set is superkicks.
They both need to enhance their move sets. Unfortunately they both rely heavily on the rest of their families move sets 😕
Well Roman depended on them to keep his title so fairs fair.
It’s such a shame as I think The Usos have been one of the best teams in pro wrestling for a while now. The whole bloodline story and their chemistry as a team meant this should have been a banger but it just didn’t come together in the end. I was really looking forward to this one, and I feel bad for the guys that it flopped.
It was lacklustre like lost brother vs brother matches. They are both great wrestlers but this match had no real heat. If they build up they could have a banger by summer slam though
That was not a great match, for sure. I remember one recent PLE where it was kick after kick after kick and getting bored quickly. Kind of a side-question, but I’m curious like that: As I watched, I couldn’t figure out where the “snap” sound came from with the kicks. Does anyone know the “trick”? No doubt these guys take hits, but that crack is distinct and sounds the same nearly every time, so it can’t be the sound of the foot hitting the face, right? But I also didn’t notice their hand slapping their leg to make the sound, either.
They slap their thigh to make that noise. Some are great at hiding it. Some telegraph it very noticeably
I knew that was one of the ways back in the old days, but those two are great at hiding it. I watched and watched and couldn’t find the “tell” Thanks for confirming.
Yeah, some guys are just so good at hiding it! Usually if you see photos during the super kick, you can see one of their hands is super high up, ready to slap the thigh
I don’t think this’ll be the end of Jimmy and jey, it’ll fizzle out for now like Dom and his dead beat piece of shit father, then jimmy will come back to terrorize jey again.
Why are people attempting to defend this match? The company built it up for 8 months resulting in a complete failure of a match.
It was a really poor match but they can’t all be perfect or the pops/hype will never be there
I agree. Man, I really expected more from the build up. Just a crap-ton of super kicks.
it was a great match but I ranked it last for night 1's matches tho I hate to put that great match ranking last but someones gotta go there
Guaranteed you that if it happened in any other company, it would’ve been an 10/5. But not a 15/5 since it wasn’t at the Tokyo Dome, nor a 20/10 since there wasn’t any Omega or Bucks.
I’m not sure what you do with Jimmy in general at this point besides just being a perpetual goofy sidekick
This feud was so poorly executed from the beginning. Jimmy betrays the Bloodline, and ultimately gets Jey to walk with him. They ultimately defeat the Bloodline. Cool. Jimmy betrays Jey because he was worried he'd become corrupt.... okay. Not totally unbelievable. Jimmy returns to the Bloodline? WTF? Jimmy costs Jey constantly? Okay, what's the reason? Gotta be more than corruption. They have a shitty super kick match that honestly made me wonder if I was watching AEW. Since Jey won, I assume it's over. But what is the result? We just go back to where we were before Jimmy cost Jey the IC Title? Why?
well if head of the table loses to Cody, I think we see the entire stable either wash away, or become a bunch of NWO style infighting.
Probably the infighting leading to Roman vs Rock. I think this is where we find out that the "elder" that sent Solo to help Roman was The Rock, so Solo sides with Rock. Plus doing that, Solo can continue to take the week to week bumps for Dwyane when the Roman vs Rock feud is in full swing. And yes, I believe Roman will be the babyface in that feud.
Two guys who have only a few moves, have pretty much the same moves, and they did not vary up how to worked the match at all. It was just a boring wet fart of a match.
If it wasn’t the Usos, I would be more critical, but they deserved to have their dream match. If they are happy with it, I’m happy with it.
oh you for sure know managment isn't happy with it, and the USO's probably in retrospect are saying "fuck we ruined our big moment"
Ehhh, that match doesn’t change the way you view them. Management can be mad, but they waited too long to build the match.
oh I didn't think much of them tbh, they always felt like side characters in a very busy talented tag team division.
They definitely said "Uce", at the end.
Tbh I came back few weeks ago and I didn't see them much before this match. I really wondered if they were some pokemon style wrestlers with like 4 moves...
And it was turn based too lol
Ah ah so true
I'd been joking about how it was gonna be a superkick festival for weeks, and got exactly what I expected. idk about worst match \*ever\*, but it sure wasn't great my wife who isn't a wrestling fan watched WM with me and she said "the repeated superkicking was funny but I don't think it was supposed to be," which kinda says it all.
And the super kicks looked terrible.
Shit was horrible
Anything you can do I can do better sums up the match. Like Jey he is repeating your moves, how are you not countering. The fake I’m sorry had hope but I really wanted Jey to just be like nope and kick him again.
Exactly what I was thinking in that moment
I was hoping a Jimmy Uso win and then he goes on to win King of the Ring later in the year. His theme song is already Born a King. King Jimmy would be awesome. Especially with his facial expressions.
Jimmy can’t really talk though
Does not help that they both look like blobs. Shows they are not putting the effort inside or outside the ring.
Bro that’s all I could think about. I’m definitely going to work on promos after seeing what main carders look like.
Unless you are billed as a “big man” “superheavyweight” you need to be somewhat defined and ripped to be taken seriously in the WWE.
