SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)…
Jimmy Uso, one half of The Usos tag team with Jey Uso, was arrested “after a drunken dispute with cops in Detroit,” reports TMZ. Uso’s wife, Naomi, was pulled over by police near downtown Detroit for driving the wrong way on a one-way street. TMZ’s police sources say their 2018 Dodge Journey smelled of booze, so they ordered Naomi out of the car. At that point, Uso ignored police commands and got out of the car and took off his jacket and shirt and “squared up like he wanted to fight.” Eventually Uso was handcuffed and arrested for disorderly conduct and obstruction. He was taken to jail and posted bond.
WWE issued the following statement to ProWrestling.net: “Jonathan Fatu is responsible for his own personal actions.”
Whether this affects the Usos match against Miz & Shane McMahon or Naomi’s participation the Elimination Chamber match this Sunday isn’t known.
