Jey Uso has fired back at wrestling fans following the backlash surrounding The Bloodline’s performance at the 2026 Royal Rumble. Uso took to social media to express his frustration with the negative reception to the events that transpired during the 30-man match.
In an Instagram story posted on Monday, Jey sent a simple but pointed message to the fanbase. Addressing those who were critical of the spots featuring his family, Jey noted that wrestling fans “do not deserve” the Anoa’i family. The post appears to be a direct response to the wave of complaints that flooded social media immediately following the Premium Live Event.
The 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble featured thirty of WWE’s top superstars, heavily highlighting the Samoan Dynasty. Jacob Fatu, Jey Uso, Roman Reigns, and Solo Sikoa all entered the matchup. One specific spot that drew heavy criticism involved Jey Uso’s entrance.
Upon entering the match with Roman Reigns already in the ring, Jey attempted to “run back” his signature entrance energy. Reigns immediately cut him short with a stiff uppercut, halting the momentum. Compounding the frustration for viewers was the fact that Brock Lesnar’s elimination took place in the background while Uso was still making his entrance, causing many to miss the key moment.
