Jey Uso is the new Intercontinental Champion and he had a celebration on RAW that mildly resembled the late great Eddie Guerrero's iconic WWE Championship celebration 20 years ago. During the segment on the red brand, a babyface turn was teased.

'Main Event' Jey was alongside his son in the concession stands as he made a hero's entrance to Monday Night RAW in Evansville, Indiana. The crowd embraced him and everyone was on their feet as he walked into the red brand as the new Intercontinental Champion for the first time in his 14-year career.

After a brief emotional speech, Bron Breakker, the man he beat last week to win the title, came out and paid his respects. He shook Jey Uso's hand and showed the champion tremendous respect. Despite his reputation, Breakker said he wouldn't spear Jey.

It seems like there could be one of two directions. Either Breakker genuinely turns babyface and has a good run in the Stamford-based promotion, or he is once again trolling and waiting in the shadows to unleash a more vicious version of himself.

He seemed humble after losing to Sami Zayn for the first time, but it was only a stepping stone for him to finally get his hands on the title.

Either way, the moment was all about Jey Uso and he deserved all the cheers.
