How much YEET ! is too much YEET?WWEanswered this motion onthe latest edition ofMonday Night Raw , whenJey Uso cut his last promo before heading toWrestleMania 41 , where he will face Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship in a couple that has been talk about a lot , and not always for the right reasons .

The premature workweek , Jey silenced his doubtersby cutting an intense , emotional promo , where he shed the peel of the fun - loving , YEETING merchandise machine to permit Gunther know that he made a massive fault in brutalise Jey ’s brother , Jimmy , the calendar week before . That Jey was one that all fans could get behind , and one suitable of bear a man title . The Jey from this hebdomad , however , showed nothing of that nuance andreverted to some nasty old habits .

Catchphrases and Slogans Are Not Enough to Make a World Champion

Coming deep in the show , Jey this time did not have a target for his anger , as Gunther had already cut an excellent promo to begin with in the show . Jey jumped on the announcers ' table and continue to tell the crowd that Gunther is frightened of him and that he would beat him at ' Mania and take the championship for his family and his fans . If a " basic babyface phrases handbook " exist , it would contain Jey ’s promo verbatim . No mention of Jimmy , no hint of the vulnerability he show the previous calendar week when he admitted being frightened of Gunther . He led the crowd into Yeeting in tune with his promo , and that ’s about it .

Gunther , on the other hand , hold open doing his business in making this feud find active and interesting . Stepping out of the muteness from the former workweek , he cut the unadulterated image of an intense , get to heel who prognosticate to do unutterable things to his opponent . Everything was there : the intensity , the words , the playacting ( and let ’s not forget that Gunther ’s first voice communication is not English ) . Fans who say thatGunther has been carrying this feudnow have new proof to corroborate their argument .

Jey Needs to Find Something New If He Wants to Be a Believable World Champion

Putting the championship on Jey is not necessarily a error . WWE has to capitalize on a Superstar ’s popularity when this explodes , lest they take chances it petering out and wasting an opportunity , as it kind of happened with LA Knight . The live reactions to Jey are as undeniable as his merch sale , and he has his legion of diehard fan quick to defend him at all cost . However , once the bang is on him , the true journeying begins , andit ’s best if everyone forgets that last promo , then .

A babyface star ask to be many things , but the most important , perhaps , is relatable . It ’s nerveless to jolly up for the democratic guy or gal and repeat their catchphrases , but that ’s only the first tier . Stone Cold did not become Stone Cold only because of Austin 3:16 . His massive popularity came from him personifying a operate - course hero rebelling against the evil genus Bos , something that everyone could relate to . William F. Cody is cool and has a catchy Sung dynasty , but his struggle against the Bloodline is what made him really over with WWE fans . Jey need to find that ingredient , which admittedly shone in his work of the past weeks , and carry it into his backup sovereignty if he want to really thrive at the top .

Is WWE Already Giving Up on Jey Uso?

That Promo Was Way Too Short

The most troublesome takeout from Jey Uso ’s promo on the go - home edition ofRawwas its length , or rather its brevity . His actual clock time on the mike lasted just two minutes , while Gunther had more than double . The show was packed , of course of action , but one ca n’t help but make a comparison with the section that come after , with Reigns , Rollins , and Punk brawling ahead of their Night 1 main effect . Many fans already complained that the World Heavyweight Championship match has been give up out of the main event again to make room for more democratic stars and to conciliate CM Punk ’s wish to main event ' Mania . Jey ’s performance only threw more fuel on the fire .

It ’s hard to understand or predict where WWE reservation is head , at metre , even when it ’s at its good , so what follow is mere speculation , but what if management has already afford up on the idea of wager on Jey as the face of one of the brands ? After all , a abbreviated championship sovereignty could be enough to solidify his status and let the YEET ship sail smoothly for more time , before position the belt back on Gunther . Hopefully , during his time as superstar , Jey Uso will be able to find something that let him go beyond the YEET!chants . What is sure , however , is that the controversy around this feud wo n’t end with their catch atWrestleMania 41 .
