These dudes go dumb hard. Even when they were buttermilk babyfaces, they were churning out five stars like nobodies business, and now that they're heel and seemingly closer to themselves, they're essentially untouchable. These boys are the fucking truth. I could watch their matches all day, every day. So fucking good. We can sit here and talk about how stupid the Universal title sounds, or we can appreciate what we have.

God bless The Usos.

The Usos are amazing, and it's a huge disservice to them that their best and really ONLY competition in the SDL tag division is New Day.

Is it really so hard to build teams as legit credible threats? The Usos constantly tear the roof off with great matches and promos.

The Usos had some good matches including bangers with The Wyatts back in 2014 but even when they were having good matches it was tough for me to fully invest because they just had such boring personalities and the crowd wound up turning on them since they tried to play up the family relationship with Reigns.

For my money they've been the most improved act since the brand split. Really being able to show off their personality. So fucking good as heels, and having killer matches all the time.

The Uso's are currently 'that team' who I think are doing amazing in-ring work and should get a big pay-off for it, which usually when I feel that way about a wrestler/tag team they somehow end up lucky to make the WM pre-show. :/

The Usos are outstanding. I loathe the current WWE system that keeps tag teams in the middle and away from key players, because they work, talk and act in a way I'd want to focus on more. Hook them up against Owens and Zayn for the tag titles, or have them as heels working with AJ/Naka to build up their eventual showdown...

I watched Survivor Series, which was my first event since Mania. Got an offer for 3 months of the network for 99 cents.

Hard to believe how well rounded the Usos look and act now. Always good to watch wrestle, they were boring and dull before.

Now, great personality, great look and they have a swagger and confidence that makes them look so legit. Seem to have even perfected their ring style and do a lot more stuff with personality and swagger now. They looked awesome.

Big fan, and made me want to see a heel Reigns backed up by these guys even more. Would be a real modern and progressive heel group and I think they would help Reigns look legit

The Usos constantly put on incredible matches with pretty much whoever they work with. I didn't really like them as faces but they were still great in ring. Now they are just incredible. Always entertained by them at this point.

And while it does suck that the only credible threat to them is The New Day, I don't necessarily mind that. Both teams are awesome and they tear down the house when they work together.

I don't understand this Uso Penitentiary thing nor the day oneish thing at all. They act like hardened gangstas when they are he furthest from it. However, they are putting on pretty solid matches and are getting better on the mic so I am liking them.

The Usos penitentiary was bred from a promo. "DAY ONE ISH" means that they have been down with each other since birth. As they are twins. Born together. Say they're not hard if you want, but either of them would fuck you up in a fight.

Are you serious? The only reason they even look a little different now is because they've been making a concentrated effort to differentiate between Jimmy and Jey so that Shisen stops calling them both "the Uso on the left". Didn't they used to pull "the ol' switcheroo" in their initial heel run? "Twin Magic", if you will?

Usos have been great since turning it up a notch on their heel run.

Turning heel was refreshing for their careers since like others mentioned, they became really boring or stale as a face team. Once they found their groove with the Day One Ish stuff, they became even better as a team and into one of the bright spots in the WWE.

Usos are mad good.

They started taking off around 2014 with all those great matches against Wyatts/Shield/Cody and Goldust.

I really got into them at that time and TLC was coming up and I was like 100% sure that they would build to a three-way tag team TLC match between the three and The Usos would finally win the titles and it would be a huge moment and usher in a golden age of tag team rassling.

Instead The Usos won the titles for the first time anti-climactically on some RAW I think....

But yeah, I still really loved them at the time......

Loved them throughout their face run, even after people started saying they were stale....

Only time my love for them dipped was after one of them got injured..... once they came back they didn't quite seem to recapture that magic....

Then the brand split happened and the heel turn, and they have recaptured that magic and more.......


Too bad they split up DIY.... they would have been great to come in as challengers for The Usos....

One has nothing to do with the other. They can both split from the same egg and one grows taller than the other. And weight is something that's ultimately up to the individual. Having the same genetic makeup doesn't make them exact clones in perpetuity.

On that, if most things are more or less on equal footing, there is still usually a "tell" with twins, be it that rounder face thing, or a freckle, or something. My only issue is understanding *which* twin that tell denotes. In the case of the Usos, I can tell Jimmy and Jey apart, but I never remember which one is which outside of a single instance if that makes any sense. Once somebody is like "that's Jey", I can keep them separated.

I really liked that the Usos didn't get a quick title run when they first debuted and it really took the a while to get their first tag team championships which showed progression. After that they did fall victim to WWE not really having anything for them. Now that the WWE has let them do a bit of improv they've taken off. My dream Uso match right now is them vs Guerillas of Destiny from NJPW.

Mr. Nerfect
11-28-2017, 04:19 AM
The Usos have never been awful, but they always felt like a B-tier tag team to me until very recently. I don't even think it coincided with their heel turn. It's taken them a while to get into the groove of what they're doing, but now that they've found it they are stars.

Being twins has helped them in a weird way. If they weren't brothers, they would still no doubt be signed and pushed. They're part of that family. But the twin thing has allowed them to incubate and it's weird to think of them as two charismatic and fully developed professional wrestlers. I do wonder/worry/imagine what it will be like if/when the WWE decides to try singles runs with them. Can't you just imagine Vince realizing he has two more Romans?

As far as current talent go, they are two that really seem to have had everything click for them over the past few months. I remember when they lost on the Kickoff one year, then won another, and then I think they one a standard tag team match. I feel like this year is the year that they get a main roster WrestleMania showcase. They also probably get drafted to Raw as a promotion of sorts.

Jesus Christ. What you're describing are non-identical twins. If they're identical they will be the same height. Shit, I had non-identical twins in my school that you wouldn't tell they are related at all. And yes, I agree about weight, it's up to the individual, doesn't change the fact I've never seen identical twins where one was fat and another skinny.

Mr. Nerfect

It seems like they are trying to differentiate them more and more. Oh, and someone brought up the switcheroo earlier. I'm sure they probably did it once, but I actually remember thinking that it was odd they never did it when I saw them. In fact, Michael Cole used to go out of his way to make it sound like it was easy to tell them apart.

I understand the difference between identical twins and fraternal twins. I'm talking about identical, not non-identical. BUT. IDENTICAL. TWINS. ARE. NOT. CLONES. Genetically similar, yes, but two seperate bodies still mutate. You're not born with a preset height or weight guarantee, or birthmarks appearing in exactly the same spots. Am I saying one twin will be 5ft and the other 7ft? No. But they can ultimately vary by about an inch or so. One might develop a mole under their left eye that the other doesn't. That doesn't stop them from being identical twins. What stops that is when they develop totally separate features, generally a result of starting out as two fertilized eggs in the same oven as opposed to one fertilized egg that split.

And I have seen a fat/skinny twin. The odd thing was, the "fatter" twin was cute, and the skinny one looked... kinda sickly. Like they were both supposed to be bigger (it wasn't like she was 200lbs or anything, but clearly had "more meat on her" than her sister), and one decided she wanted to see what crack was like.
