WWE Legend Makes Shocking Claim About Jey Uso’s Title Reign

Jey Uso’s victory against Gunther at WrestleMania 41 was a defining moment for many wrestling fans.

His journey resonated with viewers, especially the emotional weight that an underdog carries in every story. The rapturous roars from the audience and the subsequent celebrations were a sight to behold.

In the weeks since, that demographic has experienced a split, with Uso receiving his share of criticism as well, owing to inconsistency as a singles performer and over-reliance on his catchphrase, “Yeet.”

While his first title defense against Logan Paul at Saturday Night’s Main Event was well-received for its acrobatics and fast-paced action, its lead-up was considered bland.

In the recent episode of WWE Raw, Jey came face-to-face with his nemesis, Gunther, again. This time, a former WWE tag team champion and Hall of Famer made a shocking claim about Uso’s title reign.

Jey Uso Lost His Spot Against Gunther?

While co-hosting on Busted Open Radio, Bully Ray claimed that Jey Uso may have lost his spot against Gunther on Raw.

Did you, or did you not feel that in the promo between Jey Uso and Gunther that Jey Uso lost his spot, was confused, forgot what he wanted to say? … there was an uncomfortable silence, there was a pregnant pause, I almost picked up on Gunther maybe saying some things to Jey Uso to get him back on track. You know how Jey Uso finally got back on track? With the one word, four letters, blah, blah, blah … that to me, concerning, because where are they? Where’s the real emotional investment? Are they just showing up to say Yeet?

Bully Ray also fired shots at Jey, saying he feels like a guy who won the World Heavyweight Championship; he doesn’t feel like the World Heavyweight Champion.
