“Cut” - Vince Russo says what he would’ve done with Jey Uso on WWE RAW (Exclusive)

Jey Uso has been one of the most popular WWE stars ever since he became a singles competitor. The former World Heavyweight Champion is extremely over with the crowd and draws a huge reaction every time he shows up on screen. However, he has started showing signs of a potential heel turn since last week.

During last week's episode of WWE RAW, Jey was seemingly speaking like Roman Reigns during a backstage segment and ended the show by spearing LA Knight out of nowhere. On this week's program, he was once again talking to Jimmy backstage, where his words sounded like those of a villain, but there was something else noticeable about his promo.

The 2025 Men's Royal Rumble Match winner fumbled in his promo a couple of times while talking to his brother, and this caught veteran writer Vince Russo's attention. He addressed the segment on Legion of RAW on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge. Russo said he would've cut the segment right there and would've reshot it if he were in charge.

"I did this. And the number one thing is to always protect the talent. You always want them to look like stars. You always want them to look good. Bro, Jey fumbled a couple of times during his promo. Bro, I'm doing that as soon as he fumbles. Cut. Do it again. As soon as he fumbles, you're doing [it again], that would have never made air. Why is that making air, man?" Russo said.
