Grayson Waller fired back at Jey Uso following their confrontation on the February 24 edition of Monday Night RAW. The Australian performer took to social media with a pointed three-word message targeting Uso’s popular catchphrase.
The situation began during RAW when Waller engaged in a heated backstage argument with the former Bloodline member. During their verbal exchange, Uso responded to Waller’s comments with his signature “YEET” hand gesture. Austin Theory, Waller’s tag team partner, momentarily joined in with the gesture – visibly displeasing Waller.
The confrontation escalated quickly when Uso caught Waller off-guard with a Superkick. Following this physical altercation, Waller expressed his disdain on X (formerly Twitter), simply stating:
Yeet is cringe.

This social media response continues the developing tension between the performers, with Waller clearly attempting to undermine Uso’s connection with fans through his popular catchphrase. The interaction suggests WWE may be building toward further confrontations between the two competitors.
The “YEET” gesture has become one of Uso’s most recognizable traits since establishing himself as a singles competitor following his departure from The Bloodline. The crowd response to Theory momentarily adopting the gesture highlights its popularity among WWE audiences.
