Important Update on WWE’s Plans for Jey Uso

Jey Uso has officially selected Gunther as his WrestleMania 41 opponent after a physical altercation on RAW. The World Heavyweight Champion launched a vicious assault during Uso’s entrance, culminating in a Powerbomb on the ring.

According to Fightful Select, WWE had planned for Jey Uso to win the Men’s Royal Rumble match well in advance of the premium live event. The report reveals that creative plans initially included a potential match between Gunther and Uso at Saturday Night’s Main Event, where the Ring General emerged victorious.

Despite absorbing the brutal attack on RAW, Jey Uso demonstrated his resilience by proceeding with his championship match challenge, setting the stage for their clash at WrestleMania 41.
