Jimmy Uso was not present on this week’s episode of WWE Raw, leading to fans speculating as to why he missed the show. The absence was particularly notable given that he and his brother Jey Uso recently captured the WWE Tag Team Championships, placing them at the forefront of the division.
A new report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter has shed light on the situation. According to Dave Meltzer, the absence is not related to a physical issue.
“Jimmy Uso didn’t go on WWE’s European tour which is believed to be due to a family situation and not an injury,” Meltzer wrote.
This update clarifies that the one-half of the Tag Team Champions is not dealing with an injury, which is often the concern when talent misses scheduled dates. The “family situation” kept him off the recent overseas tour as well as the live broadcast.
It is currently unknown when Jimmy Uso will return to WWE programming. He and his wife, Naomi, are currently expecting their first child together. We send positive thoughts to the family.
