She was expecting the child together with her husband, Jimmy Uso. Her emotional moment was also when she gave up the WWE Women\u2019s World Championship, which she had won earlier this year at Evolution.<\/p>\n<p>Her husband, Jimmy Uso, was involved in a violent feud during Friday Night SmackDown just a few weeks later. The October 17, episode established a singles match between Drew McIntyre and <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/superstars\/jacob-fatu\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jacob Fatu<\/a> to become the next challenger of the Undisputed WWE Championship of Cody Rhodes. But before they hooked their horns with each other. A masked attacker had rushed Fatu in the back and he could not play.<\/p>\n<p>Suspicion was easily targeted at McIntyre because most members within the SmackDown locker room thought that he had planned the attack to win his title shot. McIntyre, but bitterly denied it. In the fourth episode on October 24, SmackDown, Jimmy Uso was not convinced that McIntyre did not defile his daughter, thus approaching and assaulting him.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">This match is CHAOS! \ud83d\ude31 <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/WMk15VrhsB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/WMk15VrhsB<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 WWE (@WWE) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1981903366625034666?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 25, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Uso vs. McIntyre: No Disqualification Battle<\/h2>\n<p>SmackDown <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/superstars\/nick-aldis\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General Manager Nick Aldis<\/a> reacted by authorizing a No Disqualification match between Uso and McIntyre as the main event.
