Jey Uso has been having a hard time on Monday Night RAW, repeatedly teasing a heel turn, much to the chagrin of his brother, Jimmy Uso. Jey sent Jimmy a subtle message on his Instagram stories.

For a while now, "Main Event" Jey has been a frustrated man on Monday Night RAW. On the 22nd September episode, he was particularly cross because of The Usos' defeat to Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed at Wrestlepalooza. It was Jey who took the pinfall, but he cited LA Knight's presence as the referee as the reason why The Usos lost. He seemingly blamed his brother, Jimmy, as well, but quickly took that back. Later that night, Jey defeated LA Knight courtesy of an interference from The Vision, and he was all too happy to take the victory while leaving Knight in the dust.

While Jimmy Uso was furious at his actions and went to save LA Knight, Jey Uso put an Instagram story with his brother with the late great DMX's song, "We Right Here". What was notable about this was the lyrics in his story, which were clearly a subtle message to his brother. These are the lyrics from that chorus:

"Bring it, what? We right here, We're not goin' anywhere, We right here, This is ours and we don't share, We right here, Bring your crew, 'cause we don't care, We right here, uh, uh, uh"

Jey Uso went even further with the teases in his segment with Cody Rhodes on RAW.

While Jey Uso's tension with his brother has been visible, there was another important part of RAW that may have future implications when it comes to the former World Heavyweight Champion himself, as well as his ex-tag team partner, Cody Rhodes.

Cody and Jey have been friends on-screen for a few years now, and when The American Nightmare crossed paths with Jimmy Uso backstage on RAW, he asked about his brother. Jimmy told Cody that Jey was completely in his own head and wasn't willing to listen to him. After suggesting that Cody go and speak to Jey, that's exactly what happened, but something unexpected occurred.

When Cody tried to ease Jey's tensions and anger from recent times, the camera showed Jey visibly eyeing the Undisputed WWE Championship. This was the first major tease of the two facing off under different circumstances. If the trigger happens to be pulled on Jey Uso's character change, then he could very well be a future opponent for the WWE Championship.

Despite the two men technically being on different brands, WWE has been far more relaxed about sticking to brand exclusivity. That's why Logan Paul's status was quietly changed to free agent despite WWE previously announcing him as a RAW-exclusive superstar.
