Jey Uso Challenges Gunther for WWE World Heavyweight Title at Saturday Night’s Main Event – Jey Uso has set his sights on Gunther and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event on January 25.
The confrontation began on the January 13 episode of RAW when Gunther stormed to the ring, airing his frustrations about the state of WWE. He dismissed debates over who is the “Best in the World” or “Tribal Chief” as irrelevant and instead emphasized the prestige of his World Heavyweight Championship. Before Gunther could continue, Jey Uso interrupted with a fiery response.
Uso declared his intentions to challenge for the championship, stating that his previous distractions are behind him. The “Ring General” did not hold back in his reply, criticizing Uso’s credentials as a main event competitor while acknowledging his charisma and fan connection. Despite Gunther’s cutting remarks, he appeared to accept the challenge for Saturday Night’s Main Event, though he warned Uso to stay away from championship-level competition.
In a passionate rebuttal, Uso opened up about his journey of stepping out of the shadow of his tag team partnership with his brother. He admitted to the fear he has faced but expressed pride in betting on himself every day. Uso concluded his promo with a bold statement, promising to beat Gunther and walk away as World Heavyweight Champion.
With tensions running high and two contrasting styles set to collide, Jey Uso vs. Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship adds even more excitement to WWE’s next SNME show.
