"Bro aint wrong" - Fans agree with WWE legend who said Jey Uso has "put some weight on"

A top WWE veteran has criticized Jey Uso and the fans seem to agree judging by their reaction on social media. Kevin Nash recently said Jey is feeling the pressure of being in a solo top spot and has put some weight on.

Jey was thrust into the main event scene with a Men's Royal Rumble win earlier this year. He eliminated John Cena in the end to win the free-for-all. He will challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Title at WrestleMania 41.

Jey Uso responds to fan criticism

A LOT of fans have criticized Jey's massive WrestleMania 41 push and believe he doesn't belong in the main event scene. On the RAW Recap podcast, Jey said the following in response to his detractors:

“All I know is, Uce, I’m in a job where I do get critiqued a lot,” he said. “Gotta have tough skin. Gotta know how to take criticism. At the end of the day, though, I’m human too. I bust my as* to get to this spot. I’m telling you right now, I’m going to take it. Doubt me now. Do what you do. I got my fans behind me, Uce. I got my brothers, my family behind me."

Jey Uso has been one of the most over acts in WWE for quite some time now. He has never won the top prize, though. It remains to be seen if he has it in him to beat The Ring General and win the World Heavyweight Title at The Grandest Stage of Them All in less than three weeks.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
