Alright, so the other day I was watching wrestling, you know, Smackdown or Raw, can’t remember which. Anyway, I saw Solo Sikoa doing his thing with The Bloodline, standing next to The Usos, Jimmy and Jey. And it got me thinking, they look kinda similar, and they always stick together. So, I wondered, are they actually related? Like, brothers or cousins or something?
My first thought was just to check it out real quick. So, I grabbed my phone while the show was on commercial break. I just typed in “is solo sikoa related to the usos” into the search bar. Didn’t even bother with fancy wording.
Instantly, a bunch of stuff popped up. Lots of wrestling news sites and fan wikis. Most of the headlines pretty much screamed “YES”. But you know how the internet is, sometimes things aren’t totally accurate. I wanted to be sure, get a little more detail than just a yes or no.
Digging a Little Deeper
So, I clicked on a couple of the more reliable-looking results. Didn’t want to go down some weird fan fiction rabbit hole, you know? I started reading through some articles. They kept mentioning the Anoa’i family. That name definitely rang a bell. Big wrestling family, guys like The Rock, Roman Reigns, Yokozuna… a whole dynasty.
Then I found it. Several places confirmed the connection:
- They mentioned Rikishi as the father.
- It explicitly stated that Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso are Solo Sikoa’s older brothers.
Okay, that made sense. Same dad, different moms maybe? Nope, looked further. Turns out, they all share the same parents, Rikishi and his wife. So, they’re full brothers. Solo Sikoa, whose real first name is Joseph, is the younger brother to the twins, Jonathan (Jimmy) and Joshua (Jey).
It wasn’t just cousins or some storyline thing. They’re actual brothers.
I double-checked this against a couple more sources just to be absolutely certain. Saw some interviews mentioned where they talk about growing up together, training together. It all lined up. Thinking back, it makes total sense with how they interact on screen, that kind of built-in chemistry they have.
So, yeah, that was my little investigation. Started with a simple question watching TV, did a bit of searching around online, and confirmed it. Solo Sikoa is indeed the younger brother of Jimmy and Jey Uso. Pretty cool how deep those family roots run in wrestling.
