Jey Uso & The Return of Yeet
Earlier this month, WWE abandoned ‘Yeet’ because the term is owned by independent wrestler Kasey Huffman. It was later reported that WWE hasn’t completely given up on the term just yet and that the promotion’s legal team is working on it. Taking to Twitter, Jey didn’t clarify if he can still use Yeet on TV, but gave tweeted one for good measure.
YEET!!!

Seth Rollins on Roman Reigns
Seth Rollins has faced plenty of WWE Superstars as the reigning World Heavyweight Champion but hasn’t shown interest in Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. Speaking on the SI Media podcast, Rollins explained why he hasn’t had the Tribal Chief in his sights.
“He’s been so absent, I don’t think it’s been a topic of conversation amongst fans, let alone the locker room. I think it’s one of those things where it’s an opportunity, but it’s such a glass-ceiling opportunity. It feels like one of those things where it may never happen.”
Reigns’ next match is expected to happen at the WWE Royal Rumble PLE on January 27.
