WrestleMania season is still several months away, but it’s never too early to start talking about what the card could look like for WrestleMania 40. Next year the Showcase of the Immortals will take place from Philadelphia and it sounds like there’s talk behind the scenes of WWE holding off on a big match until the show arrives.
WrestleVotes is reporting that at least one creative force backstage wants to wait until WrestleMania to do the first Jimmy Uso vs. Jey Uso match. It was also noted that the feeling is that it would be too much of a stretch to wait 35 weeks, so it’s unlikely WWE will hold off that long.
Hearing that at least one creative force backstage wants WWE to wait for WrestleMania to do the first Uso ‘Brother v Brother’ match.
However that’s unlikely at this point I’m told, with the feeling that 35 weeks is too long of a stretch.

Over the weekend Jey Uso challenged Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship in the main event at SummerSlam. It looked like Jey was close to a victory at one point, but Jimmy shocked the world when he broke up the pin and hit his brother with a superkick.
Roman Reigns is set to appear on Friday Night SmackDown this week, so it will be interesting to see where The Bloodline storyline goes from here. Stay tuned for updates.
