Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso walked out first for their Six-Man Tag Team Match against The Bloodline at WWE Crown Jewel. Jey Uso followed them to a rapturous response from the live audience.

This was an unusual move by the company, symbolically addressing Main Event Jey's arrival as a huge babyface. The crowd in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was all for it, too. This evoked a strange reaction from the OTC.

Taking to Instagram, Paul Heyman highlighted the moment Jey Uso finally got to the ring after coming through the crowd. Uso urged fans to play along with him. The reaction only grew louder. Roman Reigns was seen paying heed to what was going on, neither angry nor too happy about it. Perhaps a quiet acknowledgment of how far Main Event Jey had come.

As for The Wiseman himself, a timeline for his on-screen return has not been disclosed by WWE or hinted at by anybody involved. However, he has been consistently working with Roman Reigns since the OTC returned at SummerSlam in August.

Furthermore, Paul Heyman was reportedly in gorilla position during the Crown Jewel opening contest between Reigns and The Usos against The Bloodline, keeping a close eye on the happenings.
