Jey Uso: I Really Don’t Care About The Fans Anymore
Jey Uso says he doesn’t care about the fans anymore.
At WWE Night of Champions, Jey Uso will go one-on-one with Oba Femi in the King of the Ring tournament. Last week, Jey had a conversation with Cody Rhodes about going after his Undisputed WWE Championship once he becomes King of the Ring.
Ahead of his match with Oba Femi, Jey Uso sat down with Jackie Redmond for an interview. Redmond mentioned that a lot of WWE fans wanted to know why he’s aligned with Roman Reigns again.
“You want me to be honest? I really don’t care about the fans no more. ‘Cause when I was doing my thing, they saw the hate. I can’t miss it, it’s all in my face. Social media, whatever it is, man. When my name pops up, I see it out there. I’m gonna let y’all know. Most disliked video on WWE social media platforms. Look it up, uce. Like five, six, 10 videos out there. It’s all good.
If anything, that thing lit a fire under me. All the noise, all the opinions. Cool. It is what it is, ’cause that’s part of the job. What’s up? (Jackie asks if Jey believes he wasn’t beloved by fans) I do. I take it back. It’s 50-50, man. Like I said, I’m confused. Pulling me left and right. I Yeet, I talk crap. I’m me now. My day ones know who they are. But there was a lot of people who did doubt me. Still doubting me right now.”
Towards the end of the interview, Uso is asked what that version of him would look like if he wins King of the Ring.
“I will either be the most loved or the most hated wrestler on Planet Earth. … (Jackie asks if he really doesn’t care whether the fans love him or not) No, no. I really, no. At the end of the day, man, they still watching me, Jackie. Whether it be good news or bad news, it’s still news.”
