Roman Reigns will face Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania 39. However, unlike his previous matches with past opponents, his insurance policy appears to be wearing thin. Earlier this year, Sami Zayn defected from the Bloodline. His exit was met with Jey Uso being caught in two minds. He has since pledged his allegiance to the Tribal Chief once again. Although, it seems that their storyline is far from done.

Jey Uso is the only Bloodline member who was forced to join the faction. Every other member has joined voluntarily. However, Jey was beaten, both physically and psychologically, until he fell in line. It appears that this is still wearing on his mind.
Roman Reigns and Jey Uso are reportedly “far from done”
Sami Zayn attacking Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble elicited a surprising response from Jey Uso. Despite being the only one opposing his entry into the stable, Jey Uso eventually developed a brotherly bond with the former Intercontinental Champion.
While the rest of the Bloodline punished Zayn for his act of defiance against Reigns, Jey left the arena without uttering another word.
He even appeared to try and help Sami Zayn beat Reigns at Elimination Chamber. Jey’s mind seemed to be made about Reigns. However, he recently attacked Zayn and joined hands with his brother Jimmy once again.
It seems that he is firmly back and on Roman’s side once again. Although, The Wrestling Blog are reporting that the feud between Jey and Roman is far from done.

“My Source has stated the following ‘Roman Reings, and Jey Usos are not done yet, this is far from done.’”

Fans believe Jey is back in Bloodline to protect Jimmy
On Reigns’ last WWE appearance, he was heard threatening to punish Jimmy for Jey’s actions. Fans believe that his twin brother returned in order to protect his brother.
With Jey Uso still estranged, @WWERomanReigns is ready to blame Jimmy @WWEUsos for the issue.@HeymanHustle #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/kJVOi6qzun

This theory is interesting when you consider that the main reason why Jey joined hands with Roman Reigns back in 2020 was to protect Jimmy from his cousin.
Jey Uso still got hard feelings towards Roman 😭 #SmackDown pic.twitter.com/5KBQpx3M9j

Jey Uso is a complex character. He didn’t want to turn on Sami Zayn, but he had to sacrifice himself to protect Jimmy Uso.
He’s still aware of what Roman Reigns has been doing to him. Jey didn’t do this for him. I think he’s playing Roman. pic.twitter.com/O1k7NtJ7e5

The hurt in jimmy’s face, to the surprise of Sami Zayn, to the deceitful eyes of Jey USO. It was all there. I want to say Jey is just doing this to screw over Roman, but the writing of the tag titles are on the wall for Sami & KO. Interesting to see what’s next. #WWERaw pic.twitter.com/wJ25CIxVNV

Jey Uso NEVER once said he attacked Sami Zayn for Roman Reigns.
He didn’t want Jimmy Uso to get “clipped”. Jey has Hollywood written all over him. #WWE #Smackdown #WrestleMania pic.twitter.com/yg1JCNFqy5
