In the world of wrestling, the name “Jey Uso”, whose birth name is Joshua Fatu, will always ring a bell. Jey Uso is more than just a professional wrestler, he’s a dedicated family man who is married to Takecia Travis. Jey, alias Main Event, has been wrestling for more than a decade. The sportsman has shown that you can balance family and career without neglecting one for the other. This article will discuss Jey, his career, and his relationship with his family.

Who is Jey Uso?

Known professionally as Main Event, Jey is into professional wrestling and has been for years now. An American of Samoan descent, he was born into a renowned family of professional wrestlers. Jey’s techniques such as superkick, splash, and so on in the ring are well known. The father of two and husband to Takecia Travis, takes his career seriously. How did Jey meet his wife, Takecia?

Jey and His Wife

Jey met his future spouse, Takecia Travis in high school in Florida. The duo first laid eyes on each other in the 9th grade. They started dating and got married years later. Their union is blessed with two wonderful boys, ages 12 and 18.

Marriage Ceremony

Jey and his wife were officially married in 2015 with only close friends and family in attendance. It was a beautiful affair that showed the love between two individuals who promised to walk through eternity together.

Although her husband is a public figure, since Takecia Travis is a private person, he respects her decision. Yet, you can still find rare pictures of the couple sharing sweet moments together on the internet.

For example, there is a picture of them as teenagers in sports clothes with smiles on their faces. Then there is one with both of them wearing formal clothes. Takecia Travis wore a bright red gown, while her beau, Jey Uso, put on a fitted suit.

Takecia Social Media Presence

Takecia Travis, unlike her sons and husband, prefers to stay off people’s radar. She is very private and doesn’t share her life on social media. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t operate social media accounts. Takecia has an Instagram account that can only be viewed by her followers (that is, it is private).

To follow her, you will need to send her a request. Then you can visit her page after she’s granted the “follow request”. Nevertheless, since Takecia often accompanies her husband to red carpet events, snippet photos of the pair together have circulated online.

Jey’s Children

Jey is fond of his wife and children, and can be seen showing them off on his social media. His sons had even appeared in 2020 and 2023 YouTube videos with him. In both videos, the boys predicted the final result of a competition between Roman Reign and Jey.

Who Won?

Contrary to people’s expectations, Jey’s sons predicted that their father, Jey, would lose the match. Funny enough, he did lose both matches. The 2020 video had nearly a million views, while the second one had over 300,000 views.

Jey’s Family

Other than his wife and children, Jey has a twin brother who is also into professional wrestling like him. His name is Jonathan Fatu, also known as Jimmy Uso. Jimmy is older than Jey by mere minutes. They are identical twins who tick the cliche of most identical twins.

Both of them are husbands, fathers, and wrestlers under WWE. Jey and Jimmy have been in the same profession for 15 years. They mostly formed a duo team and fought other opponents together. Hence, they are extremely popular worldwide. Unfortunately, things became rocky between the brothers.

Jimmy’s Family

In 2014, Jimmy, unlike his brother, married another professional wrestler called Trinity McCray. Trinity’s stage name is Naomi, and she also doubles as a stepmother to Jimmy’s kids from another relationship. The couple have fought side by side, especially in mixed matches.

Dispute Among the Uso Twins

It is understandable that there will be disagreements once in a while, no matter how close you are to someone. This applies to Jey and his twin brother in 2023 when they had some friction. It started at SummerSlam when Jimmy betrayed his brother and fought him instead.

The Incident

Jey was about to win the championship, but his twin had other ideas and dragged him out. This enraged Jey, and he unilaterally decided to quit and said it out to the audience. Ever since that spectacular incident, Jey and Jimmy haven’t fought side by side. In a plot twist, a post was uploaded online stating that the twins’ beef was just a WWE storyline.

Possible Reconciliation

As speculated by fans, there might have been a possibility of patching things up among the brothers. Then came the news of a scheduled match between Jey and Jimmy in 2024. The fight was supposed to be a live stream event and promised many interesting things.

Conclusion

Overall, Jey and Jimmy are exceptional wrestlers who are good at what they do. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have become so famous and won the hearts of many. Fans of the pair loved to see them fight together as a team instead of against each other.

However, recent events have shown that they will be fighting each other in the ring. One thing is certain, Takecia Travis and Trinity McCray are staying out of their husbands’ businesses. Neither have posted anything on social media to instigate or fan the flames of battle between their husbands.
