Jey Uso has been an integral part of WWE programming in recent months. While Jimmy Uso's injury would likely have kept his brother sidelined for a while, Roman Reigns' return saw Jey Uso become a key figure on SmackDown.

After feuding with Reigns, Jey has aligned with "The Tribal Chief." Jimmy is expected to do the same thing when he returns. According to Wrestlingnews.co, the idea behind the subtle changes in Jey's character is to eventually help elevate him and his brother:

WWE also plans on changing Jey Uso's entrance and theme song soon. It was noted by a WWE source close to the situation that while the primary objective is to elevate Roman Reigns, the idea is also to get Jimmy and Jey Uso to the next level as part of the storyline.

We hope this is true because The Usos still have time to take it to the next level in WWE. It's going to be fascinating to see how the dynamic of Reigns' "Tribe" shifts once Jimmy returns to WWE.
