World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER has awoken a beast in Jey Uso, according to the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble winner. On the March 3, 2025, edition of WWE Raw, GUNTHER defeated Otis. Jey tried to prevent a post-match attack by the champion, but A-Town Down Under attacked him before GUNTHER choked Jey out.
Later in the show, Jey spoke with Cathy Kelley and admitted that all he’s heard is that “he can’t do it.” He stated that Gunther had him doubting himself, and his back was against the wall. Jey recalled GUNTHER warning him of weeks of hell, but is now more determinend than ever to become World Heavyweight Champion at WrestleMania. GUNTHER may have put him to sleep on Raw, but the Austrian has awoken a beat, according to Main Event Jey.
Jey’s unlikely journey to the World Heavyweight Championship scene has sparked a debate among fans with fans both for and against the push of the former tag-team star. Nevetheless, Jey Uso will challenge for the gold this April, and plans to show the world, and GUNTHER, what the beast inside him is capable of.
