Jey Uso wants to hold a WWE World Championship
Jey Uso wants to hold the WWE Championship and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The 39-year-old superstar claimed he never thought of becoming a world champion until he won the Intercontinental Championship.
Speaking on the Cheap Heat podcast, Jey said:
“Yeah, man, it just puts a stamp on you. If you’re a wrestler, you want to hold a damn WWE Championship one time, a World Heavyweight Championship one time. I want to hold that s**t. I ain’t ever thought about being a champion like that until I got the IC Title man, until ‘24 popped off the way it did, it built my confidence. It made me believe, hell yeah, I could be the face, Uce.” (H/T WrestlingNewsCo)
In 2024, Jey won the WWE Intercontinental Championship by defeating Bron Breakker. The victory marked his first singles championship win in the company. Unfortunately, Jey lost the title back to Breakker after holding it for 51 days.
