May 23, 2025 – WWE SmackDown Fallout
The cracks in The Bloodline have never been wider. The atmosphere on WWE SmackDown this week turned icy as Roman Reigns, once again asserting his dominance, declared that “Yeet is dead” — effectively banning Jey Uso’s iconic catchphrase from all Bloodline appearances and merchandise.
What followed was pure tension, as Jey Uso’s name was dropped in a heated promo by Roman, who accused his younger cousin of “choosing vibes over loyalty” and “dancing his way out of responsibility.” It was a harsh public message — and one that fans felt in their hearts.
But now, Jey Uso has broken his silence.
The Tribal Chief’s Commandment
In the closing segment of SmackDown, Roman Reigns stood tall with Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso by his side. “The Bloodline doesn’t YEET. The Bloodline dominates,” he said, addressing the crowd with venom. “Jey left because he thought popping the crowd meant he could disrespect me. But I don’t hear YEET anymore, do I? It’s done.”
Solo nodded. Jimmy looked uncomfortable.
And then, things took a turn when Roman turned to Jimmy and barked: “You better not YEET either.”
The tension was thick.
Jimmy Uso’s Dilemma
Backstage, in a post-show exclusive, Jimmy was seen pacing, visibly torn. “I don’t know, man,” he muttered to an interviewer. “That’s my brother. That’s family. Roman’s my Tribal Chief, but Jey… he’s my day one.”
In a rare moment of vulnerability, Jimmy sent a direct message to his twin:
“Jey… if you see this, man… I need you. Not just for the tag team. For the family. Roman… Solo… they changing, bro. I don’t know if I’m on the right side anymore.”
Fans were stunned. Could this be the start of another split within The Bloodline?
Jey Uso Responds: “The YEET Lives On”
Hours after the episode aired, Jey Uso posted a video message on his social media — his first official response since Roman’s decree. Dressed in his “Yeet Movement” hoodie and flanked by a wall of fan signs, Jey looked focused, serious, and unapologetic.
“Roman Reigns, you can ban words, you can control titles, you can run SmackDown — but you ain’t running me. I walked out because I was tired of being used. Tired of being silenced. YEET ain’t dead. YEET lives in the crowd. YEET lives in the energy. And YEET lives in me.”
“Jimmy… you know where I stand. You know where we come from. I’m always here, Uce — when you’re ready to choose heart over fear.”
The video hit over 3 million views in two hours. #YeetLives trended globally.
What’s Next for The Usos?
While WWE has not commented officially on the internal storyline turmoil, insiders say that a family summit is being planned for an upcoming episode of SmackDown — potentially leading to a dramatic face-off between Jey, Jimmy, and Roman.
Could we see The Usos reunite to finally stand against Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa? Or is Jimmy too deep under the Tribal Chief’s control?
What is clear is that this story is far from over. Jey’s message has struck a chord not just with fans, but possibly with his brother. The WWE Universe is now bracing for the next chapter in what many are calling the “second Bloodline Civil War.”
Because one thing is for sure:
Roman Reigns may have banned YEET — but he can’t silence Jey Uso.
