Jey Uso successfully defended the Intercontinental Championship several times during WWE's tour of the UK. The YEET Master defeated former champion Bron Breakker during a house show in Manchester on October 16.

A few weeks ago on Monday Night RAW, Jey defeated Breakker to win the Intercontinental Championship. This marked his first major singles championship win in the company after being a tag team wrestler for the majority of his career.

On his Instagram story, the former Bloodline member reflected on the company's latest tour of the UK as he expressed his gratitude towards the WWE Universe.

"Til[l] next time, Europe! DUCES UCES!" Jey wrote.

Konnan discussed Jey Uso's emotional promo after winning the WWE Intercontinental Championship

After winning the Intercontinental Championship, Jey Uso addressed the WWE Universe in an emotional promo. However, his promo was criticized by Vince Russo, who called the title a "prop!"

Russo's comments sparked a lot of controversy and even caught Konnan's attention. Speaking on the Keepin' It 100 OFFICIAL podcast, the wrestling veteran said:

"People don't understand is [that when] you go out on the road, besides the fact that you're leaving your family, you gotta get your tanning in; you gotta get your weight training in. There's a certain way you've gotta act; a certain way you've gotta dress; times have to be met, meet and greets; there is so much pressure, it's unbelievable. This guy, after 16 years of being a tag team, finally won his first title; of course, he's gonna get emotional. That was a very odd take."

After winning the WWE Intercontinental Championship last month, Main Event Jey successfully defended it against Xavier Woods on the October 7 edition of the red brand. He is set to put the title on the line against Bron Breakker in a rematch on next week's Monday Night RAW.
