Jey Uso Talks Slim Jim Spokesman Spot, Says He Got Heated That LA Knight Said Iconic Line Before Him
Jey Uso talks to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful about becoming one of the new spokesmen for Slim Jim.
The relationship with Slim Jim and professional wrestling spans over three decades. The most iconic wrestler to ever appear in Slim Jim advertisements is, of course, the “Macho Man” Randy Savage. In 2025, LA Knight and Jey Uso share that honor.
For Uso, this is just another notch in his belt as he continues to break out as a singles star in WWE. Not only is he a top singles star, but he’s also connecting with the fans very strongly in the same way that legends like Savage did before him.
Now, Jey Uso is reflecting on what it means for him to be a spokesman for Slim Jim. Speaking to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful in an interview recorded ahead of WWE Wrestlepalooza, Jey praised the experience and revealed that he was initially upset when LA Knight was the first wrestler to be able to say the iconic “Snap into a Slim Jim” catchphrase.
“Man, real fire, uce. ‘Cause I automatically thought about Randy Savage, and then I got hot when I wasn’t [gonna] hit the line, ‘Snap into a Slim Jim,’ because they were giving it to LA Knight. Then I got to do a second commercial, and then I got to hit the grip and rip. You know what I’m saying? That’s what they call it.”
Slim Jim is also sponsoring WWE’s tables now. Whenever there is a table smashed in a WWE match, a Slim Jim logo appears on both sides of the table’s surface. Fans can learn more about that deal at this link.
