Regarding the future of Jey Uso, Rikishi believes he can believably pursue either the WWE World Heavyweight Championship or the Intercontinental Championship, which he briefly held last year. Eventually, though, Rikishi would also like him to work a program with "The Samoan Werewolf" Jacob Fatu.

"Run some type of storyline with 'The Werewolf' Jacob and just really get deep into that storytelling," Rikishi said. "I'm talking about head to the hospital and just something where you think it's a career ending [angle] for Jey and out of nowhere with just working hard in therapy or whatever that is, it's like that 'Rocky' movie coming back. Finally when he gets back, it's that WrestleMania moment or Royal Rumble moment which goes into WrestleMania and they go from [there]. I feel they can have an A-plus match amongst those two. I think it'll be a great treat for the fans, WWE Universe, to be able to watch a dream match like that."

Overall, Rikishi expects 2025 to be a hot year for Jey Uso, much like 2024, especially in the department of fan engagement. To illustrate Jey's popularity, Rikishi referenced the thunderous reaction he received, which included dancing and his signature "yeet" gestures, while making his entrance at a recent WWE live event in Orlando. There, he and Jimmy battled Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga in tag action.

"There was like 15, 18,000 people there and everyone was off their seats just doing the 'yeet,' So either way, it's a win-win situation for the company because merch sales goes up, which is great. It's a win situation for Jey. The fans get to get their hero new merch all the time."
