As mentioned earlier, Jey Uso faced Kevin Owens in the main event of SmackDown. He played his role to perfection when he was brutally beaten down by Kevin Owens. Even during the match, he took a lot of responsibility to help narrate a good story throughout their battle. From his in-ring maneuvers to emotional responses everything was simply on point.

Jey Uso made it look very convincing when things turned around with Roman Reigns’ interference. He went from looking helpless to looking like a monster within seconds – a switch that has made his character more intense over the last few months. He has played a huge role in Reigns’ extended championship reign on SmackDown.

Even The Tribal Chief said that he only pushed Jey Uso to his limit because he knows that the latter deserves to be a part of something bigger on WWE SmackDown. As for Kevin Owens, he blames Jey Uso for interfering in his big matches and costing him huge opportunities. Thus, it is possible that we will see both these Superstars continue their feud on the Blue brand in the coming weeks.
