During the Pat McAfee Show yesterday which had Jey Uso as one of the guests, Michael Cole recounted the story of how he went back to the hotel after the Royal Rumble and Rikishi was there hosting a watch party being all emotional.
“Your dad had no idea what was going on and he walked out and he had these tears in his eyes and gave me a massive hug,” Cole said. “He had no words for it, he’s so incredibly proud of you and as you know, he has been one of your biggest supporters through all of this in all the ups and downs in your career.”
Cole said that it was an incredible moment for him to see that emotion coming out from the Hall of Famer.
Jey added that his father called him when he went back to the locker room and he did a FaceTime where he as joined by John Cena, CM Punk, and his brothers.
“My dad knows everything in the business man, so I’m not gonna tell him everything, I’m gonna surprise him too, Uce,” Jey said.
