Jey Uso Says He Wants One More Crack At Gunther Following Royal Rumble Win

Jey Uso won the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble match at the WWE Royal Rumble. After the show, Uso discussed his big win, feeling like the company now has faith in him, wanting one more shot at World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, and more. Highlights of his comments are below.
On WWE now having faith in him (question from Screenrant): “I think the company, going forward with me, they trust me now, and I’m not going to let them down. They want some heavy hitters in there, I’m a heavy hitter, too. And like John says, my time is now, my time is now, and I was screaming that out there the whole time tonight, it’s my turn, and ya’ll gonna see, I’m just gonna go up from here.”
On if he now wants to face Cody Rhodes or Gunther (question from Joel Torres): “I was screaming Gunther, Gunther, Gunther. But when it’s in concrete right now, and it’s after the Rumble, and I really won it, I’m looking at both of ’em like, alright, we gonna yeet here or yeet here? I dunno man. I would like one more crack at Gunther. And I really feel like I can beat Gunther.”
