Jimmy Uso to acknowledge Roman Reigns.
In the main event of WWE SummerSlam, Jey Uso had Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns pinned and as the referee’s hand was coming down for the last count, he was pulled from out of the ring.
The individual who pulled Jey out of the ring revealed himself to be one-half of The Usos, Jey’s brother Jimmy. Reigns would go on to retain his championship in the Tribal Combat match. After a recap of what occurred aired on the 8/7 Raw, it was announced that Jimmy and Reigns will be present on this week’s SmackDown.
Jimmy is going to acknowledge Roman.
