Jey Uso might have his first World Heavyweight Championship defense lined up, but it might not be against Logan Paul. While The Yeet Master is expected to face The Maverick, a 39-year-old star could have other plans.

During Logan Paul vs. AJ Styles at WrestleMania 41, a member of Paul’s entourage attempted to hand him brass knuckles. However, Karrion Kross stepped in, stopping the exchange and offering the weapon to Styles. After the YouTube sensation won, he made it clear on RAW that he was coming for The YEET Master’s title. Meanwhile, Kross also has his eyes on the gold.

Recently, a fan on X/Twitter claimed The Doom Walker should dethrone Jey. In response, the former NXT Champion shared a straightforward two-word message. Going by Kross' tweet, he might be devising a plan to steal Paul's championship shot and face Jey.

After 'Mania, Kross crashed WWE’s WrestleMania Recap and went on a fiery rant. The RAW Superstar was furious about being left off the 'Mania card and said he was ignored despite receiving a loud reaction from the crowd during the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

The Doom Walker even took a shot at WWE officials, accusing them of chasing viral moments instead of real fan reactions. The 39-year-old's message was aimed directly at those in charge.

Amid the chaos, WWE could look to capitalize on Kross' momentum and book him in a world title match against Jey Uso. As of now, it's unclear who will fight Jey, but after all this, he needs to watch his back.

Right now, the abovementioned scenario is just speculation, and nothing has been officially confirmed.

During Zayn vs. Breakker, The Visionary declared the Canadian star wasn’t worth saving and demanded his stablemate finish the job. The Architect later hit Zayn with a devastating stomp as officials rushed in. On Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Russo questioned Jey and Zayn's on-screen friendship.

“You guys made me believe they were so close. I think Sami told Jey he loved him two weeks ago (...) but Jey Uso is not out there helping his buddy.” [From 8:16 onwards]
