WWE Hall Of Famer Rikishi took to Instagram this morning to congratulate his sons, Jimmy and Jey Uso, on winning the SmackDown Tag Team Championship at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view.
Rikishi seemed to confirm the rumors going around about The Usos becoming free agents soon. For those of you that haven’t been following the story, their deals are believed to be up in April and they have yet to sign a new contract. AEW would be interested in signing them and they would be a good fit since AEW is looking to put a major focus on tag team wrestling.
Rikishi’s post mentioned their upcoming free agent status: “Congratulations your hard work in the industry will and never be denied in the @Wwe or anywhere else in the wrestling ? #UsosIs$$$$ #TooLegitToPassUpOn #TimesUp #SoonToBeFreeAgents or Not”
Here is the entire post:
