- Jey Uso defeated Ilya Dragunov in King of the Ring action on WWE Raw, and there are some fans who aren’t thrilled with Jey’s push as a top singles star. Is the company making the right move with the former member of The Bloodline? How has recent crowd reaction put WWE in an interesting position? And what could be in the works for Jey moving forward? Blake shares his thoughts on some of the fan backlash and why the business metrics tell a different story.

People would've been unhappy if Dragunov had won too. You can't please everyone, and it sucks
Nope. Dragunov should have won. His just better
@@Yifeng-rn4ov yeah to us smart fans, but the casuals in the audience would be unhappy.
And they want jey in bloodline saga which he can afford to be a champ and fight bloodline same time
Jey has always been boring as a solo wrestler, his moveset is: super kick, super kick, spear, splash. Spam super kick. There’s a reason that the wrestling community all tried to argue he had the worst singles match in WrestleMania history.
(Personally I thought it was boring but Undertaker vs Giant Gonzalez or King Kong Bundy was worse imo.)
@@californiansniper2133that’s why I don’t give a crap about the smart fans to be honest. When I’m watching and enjoying something either in TV or at the show, I can enjoy it with others. On the internet it’s everyone hating and hating on the people that don’t hate with them. It’s pathetic.
Y’all acting like the man isn’t apart of the biggest storyline his singles run is literally him passing time. I think if he would’ve actually won some of the bigger matches he’s had it would legitimize him more.
100% tbh he hasn’t lost a title match on his own yet though either. No one should be upset with his push he’s a high point of the night, and he will be champion this year.
He will put other talent over all while BEGINNING his singles run. Just as many other current champions have done as well.
Jey will be feuding the Wyatt 6 at King of the Ring.
Yeah but the problem is he’s really not good at wrestling.
@garenthal9638 but he is.
We love jey bc we love jey's story. Hell jey's story is more heartwarming than Cody's actually. We saw jey lose it all when he lost Jimmy, lost his dignity when he lost to roman. Forced to be apart of a faction he wanted no part in. Rise to the top when he became the undisputedtag champions (and to this day we haven't had a tag team captivate the tag division since they dropped the belts). Have a fued within the faction with sami, go against the family again in a bloodline civil war, get betrayed by the one guy that he always knew he could trust, team up with the guy that dethroned his family. The bloodline story is just as much about jey as it is about roman
People forget there wouldn’t be a Bloodline without Jey. It was him and Roman
i won't aprove another YEs mania, kofimania or shield 2.0 again. It's just a repetion of the same stories
goood story... kinda.
But he has no promo skill, wrestling or selling skill, he only says YEET and people moves like people with mental issues.
@@jon_doe4763 So then don't watch his matches lol. Easy fix
@@Deeaych the truth hurts people🗿
Jey Uso is probably the most over guy on the entire roster. Haters can keep on crying.
Nah
No one gets the reaction he does.
Nobody is really saying he's not over, all people are saying are his in-ring skills need work. Which is truth not hate.
la knight would like to have a word with you lol
@MarioAdwater82 Oh, I agree. He, Jey, and Cody are definitely in a three-way tie.
6:40 It's even in WWE's adverts now, you see Jey Uso being displayed amongst the Punk's/Rhodes/Ripley's/Reigns/Rock brands. That tells you how powerful Jey's brand is right now.
Artificial push
@@yellowsnowman9157 Well, it's working whether or not it's organic.
@@yellowsnowman9157literally false lmao. An artificial push is someone like roman reigns. He was chosen as the next guy before connecting to the crowd and showing the ability to even cut a promo.
Stop using words you dont know the meaning of. Jey has proven he can hang in main storylines and cut promos. This push is not artifical, buddy
I think people mistake criticism with hate. Whether Jey's story is better than Cody's or not, some people find him boring, me included, that's a fact. I wish people would just agree to disagree, but I've seen some comments saying that people HATE Jey because of racism. It's so annoying, you can't disagree with people these days.
I always love the Usos but you have to understand Jey has been in a tag team since he started. Everyone is expecting him to be super great as a solo wrestler but it will take time. I think what they should have done was have him update his skills for him working solo matches. His move set is great with his brother.
I think they will give him a chance to achieve what he can as a singles star then eventually when Jimmy is well they will get back together.
lol jey is better in ring than most, do remember he’s more experienced then Roman in the ring. He just hasn’t had the opportunity to shine, now he’s getting it and he deserves all of it
You must wasn’t watching WWE in the pandemic
It makes sense they’re going all out on Jey now before he teams back up with Jimmy and Roman!
People can say what they want but I'm one of those people who would like to see Jey Uso as champion at least once. He doesn't even have to be a World Champion (that would be dope to see though) but even an Intercontinental Title run would be great to see, even if it's short.
But even if that doesn't happen, even saying that is a testament to how big Jey is as a superstar.
Yup he definitely needs to get a singles title run. Even if its mid card.
I seriously wonder why you both have such low standards
@@UsykWillBeatFuryViaEzDecision Meaning?
Jey is on a list of successful singles wrestlers that came from a tag team. Shawn Michaels rockers, Bret Hart Hart foundation, booker t harlem heat, sting blade runners and ultimate warrior also blade runners. That's the ones that stood out for me. They're maybe I'm not aware of. Jeff Hardy edge.
He hasn't accomplished anything as a singles competitor, so you can't put him in that group
The Push That Jey Is Getting is what Richochet or Montez Ford should be getting to be honestly
Jey appears to be over with the crowds. I thought his work at the end of the bloodline story was great. Dude should have been nominated for an Emmy. He needs to do far fewer super kicks. Make the move “super” again.
Dragonov vs. Gunther is also a PLE match. Not a random weekly serial match. So they protect all 3 wrestlers
If I wanna see a strike fest.. I’m watching UFC
Exactly I don't understand why people think wwe would just let this big match happen on a random Raw.
I love Jey USO
Im so glad you made this video because a couple weeks ago, a youtuber made a video on why Jey "doesnt deserve a main event push'' and the main reason being was that the youtuber claimed the Jey doesnt have "main event charisma''...My main rebuttal in the comment section was that Jey at the time held two spots in the top 6 in WWE merch sales and to me, thats main event charisma, but their argument was That Jey doesnt have the same main event charisma that Sid vicious or Hulk Hogan Had or ever be able to garner the reaction that the Rock Vs. Hogan match got at wrestlemania. I completely disagreed. He has enough charisma to be a top card talent, he just needs to add a few more moves to his moveset within the next few years..
His promos have devolved into just saying Yeet wherever he can fit it in and the man needs a new finisher the 15 super kicks need to go
Im starting to feel that he and Jimmy should’ve done a double turn at mania jey seemed hella comfortable in that role as right hand man amd jimmy is infectiously funny and likeable
People forget Ilja is new to the main roster, which is supposed to be better than NXT in terms of experience. That's why it is a big deal when the main roster people go to NXT. Also, in terms of keyfabe, he's the last person since Cody to pin Roman CLEAN. I get that's he's not the most technical wrestler, but he's entertaining and super hot right now, and when the champion says, "This is your show now." he's not gonna be booked to be a jobber
Jey needs to develop more moves. Superkick, weak spear and splash ain't enough. He needs better ring psychology.
People are tripping! YEET! He’s definitely the best mid carder in WWE right now! YEET! He’s over as hell. YEET! His merch is selling like crazy. YEET! And we love his catch phrase, YEET! 😎
Id rather see Jey with the WHC than Damian with it. Damian is so not ready, he is not confident and sounds like hes reading lines off a paper. Jey carried him through their promos
We acting like Jey wasn't having bangers with AJ Styles, Daniel Bryan, Seth Rollins, and Drew McIntyre.... c'mon now dawg
It's gonna take time for him to fully transition to a single star. He has been a tag wrestler all his career. I love and support Jey. He deserves what he is getting. He has been working for more than 10 yrs to be where he is. He is not a product of the machine. He is a product of the fans. I love getting behind people like this. Ilja Dragunov is a nobody. On the roster. He is a new guy. The fact that people are angry cause Jey won are the same people who root for him for the past three years. These people would have reacted the same if Dragunov won. This is why wrestling fans ruin the fun. They ruin the fun of the story. Dragunov vs Gunther doesn't deserve to be in a random episode of RAW. Wrestling is not just workrate its entertainment. Jey Uso might not be a workrate guy. But he isn't that bad. I have always said he can have good matches to. His match with Dragunov was great. It was one of his best matches. I love and support Jey. The people that are angry are the vocal minority who love workrate. If you love workrate then go watch AEW. WWE isn't for you.
I recently looked at his T-shirt sales and he is top 10 in the company. 🤷🏿♂️. Someone out there likes him.
Jey's one of the most over babyfaces in the entire industry. Jey/Punk are the most over babyfaces on Raw. Jey deserves it. 💯
They should of called an audible at Backlash and have him go over Priest! Way too many heels on Raw in the title picture, Drew, Priest, Gunther, all heels! The only faces are Punk, whose been teasing a heel turn, and Seth, whose injured!
Not going even harder on the Jey Uso push is going to cause a huge issue, as now there are no baby faces left to feud over the top title on Raw!
Keep the content coming my man!!! Shoutout from Ireland 🇮🇪 ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☝🏽
I was at raw last week and Jey is the most OVER guy in the company. People love to YEET. all his merch sold out. People were yeeting at all the gas stations and restaurants within a 10 mile radius of the venue
Agreed was in greensboro last night very over
I like your take on this brother. You understand the business component at play here. Good stuff. New subscriber.
Jey's over as a personality but his in-ring is very "blah"---and the 40 match was just bad. I get the push but is Jay a future world champion? I'm not seeing it right now.
United states champion is in his future
great video again thank you
Gunther vs lija needs to built up epically. It was too early for that
Gunther vs Dragunov is a PLE match or a Finals of the Tournament match it Is a 5 star classic in the making Jey Uso is hot right now
I love it for Jey Uso....
YEET!!!!!
People acting like we not getting ilja vs Gunter at bash in Berlin 😂
It’s obvious that’s the better time to book that match
He deserves a title belt.
Ilya Draganov vs Gunther has to be built properly. Having them face each other on a random Monday night raw wouldn't have done the match Justice. especially if they have Gunther just squashed Ilya in 10 minutes.
Would you rather have an AJ styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura type of match where it just fell flat?
I’m not gonna act like I’m a wrestling head on the level of everyone else here … but I can tell you the bloodline story is one of the best stories ever because it has so many layers and moving parts too it. Like it’s genuinely great because even though it wasn’t planned or intentional party of the story without it ever meaning to be goes back when the WWE was trying to force him to be what he wasn’t and even though he sadly had to walk away for the reasons he did coming back heel played so perfectly off all the resentment he had for the fans not accepting him. Him losing and going away for a while is literally just making it better, giving the young boys a chance to fuck it up so the OG’s can come back to face off against the young boys in a civil war story line and giving Heyman a chance to reunite with roman. Ppl always acted like they hated Roman but they miss him sorely now that he’s gone cause Logan Paul is goofy he not the villain a champ needs. I think Jey will end up being the champion and Roman will get the other eventually and the bloodline will hold the belts again … that would be dope.
Jey uso needs to be champ
Lol people really complaining about Jey single run like got held 2 titles for almost 2 years it’s good to start his singles run losing he been winning with his brother for so long now he on his own learning the hard way like Roman did
Jey is in the top 5 of merch sellers, and has been since he went solo, plus hes getting some of the biggest crowd reactions of anyone INCLUDING CODY, this is how the business has always worked, you make them more money, you bring more eyes to the product, you move up the card and eventually to a title
Let Jey do his thing, time will tell and I think Jey will be worth the build up.
Jey is on his way up to winning a title yeet! he working very hard, Yeet!
he needs a championship match and actually win it instead of losing.
Still should've given him the win over GUNTHER so we definitely wouldn't be overly invested in this parallel storyline to the BLOODLINE EXTENDED & yes SAMI is great but given he was already in the position to have that title still break's alot of people SAGA
Hogan, Cena, Andre the Giant and Ultimate Warrior were not great workers either but like Jey they were all over with the fans and sold merch and tickets…..
If anyone thought a relative unknown was going to beat Jey USO the 3rd most popular wrestler in the company ATM then you are crazy. Ilja is mad talented but less than what 40% of the WWE audience knows who he is.
Plus Ilja vs Gunther should have been for the IC title
Jey needs a title
The dragunov and Gunther will have an epic build up when it’s time
They need to put a belt on jay
Nwo white and Nwo red is same as bloodline vs bloodline
Great take bro !
They are giving him the la knight treatment
I think LA Knight should win KotR. Before he cools off too much.
The main issue with the brother v brother match in my opinion that it wasn't a street fight type deal limiting jimmy
Jey should have 100% won anyways. WWE are NOT putting Ilya Dragunov/Gunther on a random episode of Raw from North Carolina or anywhere. That match needs to be on a major PPV/PLE
you can have more than one match with the first match leading to a even bigger match
Well they not doing that @Hhhahah-rk1ys
@Hhhahah-rk1ys I'm not on the Jey train but he wins king of the ring in saudi
YEET is starting to leak into the mainstream so it's going to make his merchandise sales potentially much bigger. This is like BAZINGA.
USO’s match with draganov was lit!!
All I can say is the more stars wwe can make the better , the way wwe is treating la knight is how everybody should be treated , so that it can be unpredictable, like when u see Gunther vs Chad like u know the outcome and it shouldn’t be that way
Jey Uso is this generations Ultimate Warrior. ALL INTRO, no ring skills and I love watching
I really appreciate of WWE give Jey another shot of the IC HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION if it's either against Gable if he wins it again Sami or if He go against his boy Sami, former bloodline member vs former bloodline member, Good Friend vs Good Friend, Uso vs Ucey. Hell even Sami proves he's the next World Champ in the future and I think it'll be perfect for those 2 to go at it in Summer Slam make IC TITLE match more bigger and great again since Shawn Michael and Scott Hall aka Razor Ramon
👑🏆☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾🏆👑
I rather Gunther vs Dragonov actually get time as part of a storyline than some throwaway tournament match
Can’t wait for those snoozefest promos
Jey gets a loud reaction and has been a sympathetic character for the last 4 years. Whether hes fhe best in the ring or not doesnt matter tbh. He is compelling (even if not very deep right now) enough of a character that people will want to see him.
Bruh nobody trying see Gunther vs ija this soon triple h know what he doing y’all wwe fans really should just be grateful. Just cause Triple h listen to his audience don’t mean y’all should 100% control the narrative
Why would WWE give us an Ilja v Gunther for the first time in the main roster on a random RAW episode. Put in on a PLE and draw more crowd...
My brother blake have blessed Thursday always supporting my brother blake i agree with you brother
Have you seen the crowds reaction to Jey? Don’t hate.
As a tag team competitor:Among The Greatest of all time Maybe *The Greatest*
As a Singles Competitor:Over af with very limited in ring moves but great in ring psychology
I love Jey i wanted him to beat Seth and Gunther. He has had a interview post mania and said that him and Jimmy had to have there match rushed due to time issues. With 2 of the matches going over.
I like it and all, and probably nothing you haven't thought of yourself, but I just gotta say it. Roof would have been better if you had done the pillars first then the top so the seams would have overlayed the pillars.
They’re not gonna waste Gunther Dragonov 2 on an episode of Monday night Raw.
Wouldn't doubt if WWE swerves and makes Jey Uso the Blood Line Tribal Chief for Solos group
One word folks-POP! I love LA Knight, but at this point I'm not sure anyone, Cody aside has a bigger pop than Jey.
I personally love Jey uso, but it seems like he's kinda just floating out there. That's with a lot of wrestlers right now though. It's like they don't know what to do with them.
I think Gunther vs Dragunov should be saved for WM41.
Love that you laid out the merch numbers bc it is a business and they are in it to make money. I think we'll get the Ilja/Gunther match once Ilja has been on the main roster for a bit. I'm stoked to see the response Jey is getting and am a fan not because of his wrestling but the fact that he really entertains me.
It's selective business. LA Knight has been over and selling merch, but they still won't push him as a main-eventer.
@@pkj2148 LA Knight sucks, Rock rip off
@@pilot8220 That isn't the question here. He is objectively one of the most over wrestlers in the company, he therefore deserves a push. That's what's best for business.
I like jey but all he really got now is a really good entrance , and he is the realist outve the bloodline . This is the best his character ever looked
Eminem knows what he is talking about. Yall should listen him.
If you move the needle, you deserve the push
Jey is a cool guy and talented asf 💯💯
You now have the fireflies support..... YEET!
I'm still baffled that Jim or Jay hadn't switched to the technical style they use when they first changed their gimmick. When they'd target legs and arms focusing on that single limb
YEEEEEET
Jey has gone through hell in storyline his story puts him over plus he is losing ... so it makes you hope for that big win
Well said
Jey is top tier great worker and over …they just can’t push the button just yet …and also that man been putting on classics all his life …so hey …
Jeys kinda reminds me of la knight when he was the most hot
It’s all about $$$$$ and as long as Jey is $, he will continue to be pushed
I Love Main Event Jey Uso!!! YEET!!!!!!
Jey bringin value
🗣 GIVE IT TO ME!!!
💎
I'm kinda not into jeys singles push. Im not yet convinced. That's just me. Just like im not convinced Damien makes a good champion or deserves to be one.
YEET ! Nuff said
Ima be real they just did Monday night raw in my city all you heard in the arena even before the show started was “YEET” chants even in concessions so yeah J is over you can’t plant
Mmmm… it was the right call for now
Let ija join then turn on Gunther
Look Gunther and Ilja is great and fun but entertaining but the AVERAGE FAN… who drive the sales to where they want to be. Yeah, Jey needs a title run personally even if short term. lol even if for a week. I would find it great to give Dom the title. It’s some ridiculous win and then loses it right away.
Imagine Dirty Dom defeating Cody and holding it even for a month with no other wins other than cheating or being DQ’d. The boos would be nuclear along with his promos…..
I really enjoyed this video on Main Event Jay Uso. Can you do a video on LA Knight? I feel like WWE is killing his push and he's still so over with the fans. He always gets one of the best reactions of the show. What do you think about his situation right now?
Knight and Jay are kinda in the same boat. They are SO over and I think WWE just feels they don't need a belt at this particular moment. Last night's SD kinda teased a Knight/Logan Paul feud.
They should let Jey beat Damian and then have Damian win it back after a month or two
