They should call up Jake Atlas, call him Jake Uso, and give him all of Jimmy's lines. Why did you put up a picture of Roman, Heyman and Jimmy Uso? Nothing’s different about it.

The best part is is that the storyline likely involves the Rock as the endgame but once he shows up no one is going to give two f***s what the Uso’s are doing anyways. Take another L, WWE! Also, you’re expecting me to believe Jimmy Uso is important enough for him not to take at least a two month suspension going into a match that likely won’t happen until April? Come on, now. Khan has fired so many people that they can’t afford to suspend anyone! Party time, boys! lol

Jimmy Uso has only been an important part of the "Tribal Chief" storyline for a cup of coffee.
The story isn't impacted one iota if you punish him. Not one. Maybe Jimmy should have just streamed on Twitch. That might have been enough for Vince to do something.

Also I dispute the idea that, "Roman uselessly mumbles at his cousin about what a disappointment he is, repeat ad infinitum," is a storyline. Especially when it already happened last year and basically led to nothing before just kind of stopping because Jey was suddenly evil now.

Think they might send him to .205 Live? This post needs nine more likes for the "100 Likes Club"! C'mon people, get the lead out! And seriously, unless Jimmy kills someone with his recklessness, they aren't going to do jack shit. They've proven that plenty in the past with him, Jeff and a few others. He'd have to wrestle intoxicated at this stage for them to care. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Jericho get arrested for punching out a fan and they punished him by putting the World Title on him?

True story; Where I work [Cemetary for story clarity] an individual who we will refer to as 'Bob' was an alcoholic. From time to time he would sneak swigs from his "soda" bottle. Now bob was very important, He was in a top position and as of yet had not trained anyone in what he did which was very specialized. One day, actually he was sober if memory recalls, He was called in the main office that I happened to be in at the time to overhear this. They asked if the previous day he had driven home drunk because they caught him on one of the cameras as he left that day swerving out of the parking lot. Now despite the fact, he was in a very import posistion and had been there for easily 25 years they immediately fired him, with no hesitation. WWE has set a dangerous precedent for younger wrestlers and one day it's gonna bite them big in the ass. I have no respect for the company so I can't really think any less of it. That's a bit different, because if it was known he was drinking on company property there could be a liability issue. I'll grant you it was a worst kept secret thing however I don't think the big wigs ever knew. Back to Jimmy WWE does know thou. He's had prior DUI's and the point of my story was it shouldn't matter who you are if you work for a company, especially one with bad PR as it is, you need to carry yourself in a professional way. We have no idea if Jimmy has a sip before a match and maybe he'll never do so while he has to wrestle, Thou I think that makes it worse, You're cognitive enough to not risk danger by being drunk and wrestle but your more than happy to get behind the wheel.

I didn't see any other threads about this, so forgive me for bringing it up here.
But did you guys here Naomi had to leave Twitter because of the unjust flak she was getting over this whole affair. (How exactly is any of Jimmy's behavior her fault, and even if it somehow was, how does that justify racial abuse online? I mean I'm a free speech advocate, and not even a fan of Naomi, and even I'm shocked at the ass-backwards logic and lack of class from these people.)

That's pretty much why I left... That and I didn't want to risk being canceled for tweets from my more unstable period of mind. (I really did not know how to use social media at the time... Hell I still don't.)

Jimmy Uso is so important to this angle that he had to start playing the role of Jey Uso.
It's just good writing.

Not that it would make much sense, but could WWE be waiting for the court to do it's thing before stacking something else on top of it?

For out of the ring, criminally related stuff I think that is how they tend to handle things. Although I do remember them firing Emma and then rehiring her a few hours later for alleged shoplifting.
