Jey Uso’s Men’s Royal Rumble match victory shocked fans, with some sharing their issues with the decision on social media. Appearing on The Pat McAfee Show, Jey was asked for his response to the negative response to the biggest win of his WWE career.
“You don’t strap my boots every week… I’m in the trenches like everybody else man, I don’t pay no mind to that. I don’t need none of that… There’s a lot of haters out there and they talk it because they can’t walk it.”
Uso’s victory came at the expense of top talent including John Cena who many fans had predicted would be winning his final Royal Rumble match. Instead, the 16-time WWE World Champion hopes a victory inside the Men’s Elimination Chamber match will lead him to a title match at WrestleMania 41.
What’s Next for Jey Uso?
With his victory, Jey has earned himself a WrestleMania main event, either against World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER or Undisputed WWE Champion (and former tag-team partner) Cody Rhodes. After the Royal Rumble, Jey said he was going to become World Heavyweight Champion, teasing a rematch with the Ring General.
Jey will be on tonight’s edition of WWE Monday Night Raw where he’ll no-doubt address his surprising victory. No matter what some fans may say, Jey Uso is ready to prove his ‘Main Event’ moniker by competing for a World Championship at WrestleMania 41.
