A former World Heavyweight Champion has demanded a spot in the upcoming John Cena Classic.
He is none other than Jey Uso. The YEET Man took to his Instagram stories, possibly directed at the higher-ups, to ask to be put in The John Cena Classic and seemed confident that he would win the entire thing. You can check out the screenshot of his stories below:
Put me in the Cena Classic. I’ll win that shi.
John Cena returned on the November 2 episode of RAW to announce details of The John Cena Classic, taking place on December 14 at Walt Disney in Orlando, Florida. On the same night, he extended the first invite of the event to Cody Rhodes.
The Never Seen 17 then appeared on the following episode of NXT to extend the second invite to Zilla Fatu. Recently, Cena revealed that the competition will crown Men’s and Women’s Champions separately. With two spots filled in the Cena Classic, Jey Uso seemingly didn’t want to waste any time and threw his name in the hat for the unique competition.
The YEET Man broke out as a singles star in mid-2024 and went on to win his first World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 41. However, he lost the title a few months later and then reunited with his brother Jimmy Uso to form their illustrious tag team. Currently, he is out of the main event picture and part of The Bloodline faction, led by Roman Reigns.
With a huge opportunity coming up, it will be interesting to see whether Jey Uso gets a spot in the John Cena Classic.
