Jimmy Uso is part of the Anoa'i family and is first cousins, once-removed with former WWE superstars Rosey, Yokozuna, and Roman Reigns, while also being the nephew of late wrestler, Umaga. |
During high school and university, Jimmy was an avid football player but only played competitively as a linebacker for one season. |
It took The Usos more than 3 auditions to impress the WWE selection team, with the first two tryouts being botched, even in the presence of legends like The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels. |
Jimmy Uso was first recruited to WWE's Florida Championship Wrestling developmental, as his twin brother Jey had a knee injury requiring surgery. |
The Usos perform the 'Siva Tau', a Samoan war dance, when entering the ring, which is also done by Samoa's national Rugby and Australian Rules football teams. |
In a playful high school prank, Jimmy Uso once pretended to be his twin brother, Jey, to break-up with Jey's girlfriend. Surprisingly, the girlfriend later became Jey's wife, and the incident did not harm their relationship. |
