#1. WWE's plans for Jey Uso and Roman Reigns

The storyline featuring Jey Uso and Roman Reigns has been moving from strength and strength as it continues to be the most prominent angle on WWE SmackDown.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

WWE kicked off Kevin Owens' Universal title program with Roman Reigns on the most recent edition of SmackDown, and KO even picked up a win over Jey Uso in the main event of the show.

Jey Uso has been in fine form since starting his storyline with Reigns as the former Tag Team Champion has been involved in multiple main event matches, and thankfully for him, Jey has looked phenomenal. It's interesting to note that Michael Cole even called him 'Main Even Uso' on SmackDown.

A report from WrestlingNews.co has revealed that while WWE's main priority is still to elevate Roman Reigns, the plan is to get Jey and Jimmy Uso to the next level.

WWE has several changes in store for Jey Uso, and one of them included him wrestling without a shirt. Jey Uso is also expected to get a new entrance and theme song as WWE plans to tweak his presentation.

It was added that Vince McMahon is backing the storyline as it has been mapped out for several months. Jey Uso has also received high praise backstage from the talent and the people in management for his performances.

Jey Uso is reaping the benefits of a hot storyline, and he is doing his bit of showing his true capabilities.
