Jimmy Uso Arrested Following Confrontation With Police

One of The Uso brothers has run into some trouble with the law. TMZ reported how Jimmy Uso was arrested after being drunk and getting into an argument with Detroit police. The entire ordeal happened this week when Jimmy and his wife Naomi were pulled over near downtown Detroit. We are still waiting to learn if this happened before Tuesday’s SmackDown and if WWE was aware. The initial stop was because Naomi was driving on the wrong side of a one way street.

Police said the car reeked of alcohol and Naomi was asked to step out of the car. A that point, Jimmy also escorted the car and took off his jacket and shirt. The officer said that the WWE wrestler appeared to be trying to size him up for a potential fight. At this point, the offer pulled out his taser gun due to fear for his safety. Jimmy would then calm down and started obeying the commands of the police. In the end, Jimmy was arrested for disorderly conduct and obstruction of justice. He was released from jail after posting bond. The report did not mention Naomi being arrested or her outcome from the event.

This Sunday, Jimmy is supposed to team with his brother Jey Uso to challenge SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Miz & Shane McMahon. No word on if their title match at the Elimination Chamber is in jeopardy.

The Usos have been in the headlines in recent weeks as their contracts are getting ready to expire. There are some speculating that they could follow like several other wrestlers and join the new All Elite Wrestling (AEW).

This is Jimmy’s second arrested in about 12 months. He was arrested in early 2018 for drinking and driving after being pulled over following a live event in Texas.
