Jey Uso and Gunther tore the house down on the latest episode of Monday Night RAW in one of the most grueling matches in the semifinals of the 2024 King of the Ring tournament. However, the former Bloodline member was seen struggling with his right shoulder throughout the match as The Ring General kept targeting his right arm.
The Yeet Master was seen favoring his arm the entire match as if he had sustained serious damage to his shoulder. However, Jey's injury was part of the storyline, as he was selling it to accentuate his huge loss against the Imperium leader on Monday Night RAW.
For those unaware, Gunther sent Jey into the steel steps during the semifinal match of the 2024 King of the Ring tournament, causing his right arm to collide with the hard metallic body. Since then, Jey Uso has been seen struggling with his right arm and shoulder, unable to compete properly.

WWE showcased it as one of the main factors behind his huge loss against Gunther on the latest edition of Monday Night RAW. Besides, The Yeet Master also received several thunderous chops from The Ring General in the match, eventually passing out to his submission maneuver in the end.
Hence, it was all a setup to show Gunther's dominance in the 2024 King of the Ring tournament. Therefore, the former Bloodline member's injury was seemingly just a kayfabe angle, and there is nothing serious to it.
WWE Superstar Jey Uso could be away for a few weeks owing to his injury angle
The match between Gunther and Jey Uso on the latest episode of RAW was a testament to brutality. The former Bloodline member was not only seen struggling with his shoulder in the match but was also left unconscious at the end of the match due to the havoc wreaked by The Ring General.
Therefore, Jey could be away from television for a week or two to sell his storyline injury. WWE could incorporate this angle into a storyline showcasing that The Yeet Master sustained a minor injury in his match against Gunther.
Not only will this make the Imperium leader look more dominant than ever but it could also help Jey Uso revitalize himself in the meantime before starting a new program on Monday Night RAW.
Therefore, there is a good possibility that the 38-year-old star could miss a week or two to recover from his kayfabe injury. It would pave the way for a great storyline in the upcoming episodes of the red brand.
