Jey Uso On Leaving The Bloodline And Becoming A Singles Star: Man, I Liked That Era, That’s Where The Main Event Character Was Born From

Jey Uso reflects on leaving The Bloodline and the Main Event Jey Uso character being born.

Jey has been a singles star for quite some time, breaking out from The Bloodline on more than one occasion, culminating in him becoming the WWE World Heavyweight Champion at WrestleMania 41, when he defeated Gunther.

While speaking on the RAW Recap podcast this week, Jey was asked about what he’s taken from from his initial run as a singles star after he left The Bloodline.

“Man, I liked that era. It was like, that’s where, that’s where the Main Event character was born from. Take no prisoners, man. I was, I was right-hand man for a reason. I do got that dog in me, man. If needed to be come out, I let it out, man. I just felt like, like how you said, it was everything that you named off. Going out on my own, succeeding. Man, being a top guy, being a big hitter on Monday Night Raw, man, I still feel like I ain’t got my flowers, uce. Like, I still feel like I’m still trying to prove myself. I’m tired of everybody talking down on my name, man. I bust- I go hard every single week, man. Every week, you see it, man. You see what I bring to the table, man. I’m still- I feel like I’m still getting looked over, still getting disrespected, man and that’s just gonna stop. Don’t let these bright colors, don’t let it fool you, because I get down, man. Seeing Punk asking me how far I’m gonna go, what I’m willing to do. Come on, man, y’all seen my story. I run through my own family to get to the top too now, because I understand what it takes. I’m just out for respect now.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Jey spoke about people still calling him just an entrance. You can read more about that here.
