Jey and Gunther brought the house down in the closing match of the New York show. Though fans were firmly rooting for Main Event Jey to win, The Ring General continued his reign of dominance and retained his gold. There were a couple of moments in the match, especially towards the end when he connected the Uso Splash, that it looked like Jey Uso could cause a massive upset.
However, it wasn't meant to be. WWE has now released backstage footage of Jey in the immediate aftermath of his loss to Gunther. The former IC Champion stated that he was now fully focused on winning the Men's Royal Rumble match.
