#2. Jey Uso could offer Sami Zayn a fair shot at the title

Sami Zayn has failed to win the world title in WWE. He has been cheated out of a win more often than not.

Jey Uso could appear on RAW to talk about how Sami is one of the top stars who deserves a world title run. That could see The Yeet Master offer his friend a fair shot at the title at Backlash.

WWE could establish a short storyline between the two friends to keep the story afloat till Backlash. Following the PLE, Jey could come across his first real heel challenger.

#1. Betray Jey Uso and serve him on a platter to Seth Rollins

Seth Rollins’ heel partnership with Paul Heyman grew even more with Bron Breakker joining the former World Heavyweight Champion. The faction looks strong, and WWE will look to give the two stars some big segments.

The Visionary could target Jey Uso and his title in the coming weeks, and Sami Zayn could align with Jey and help his friend fend off the heels.

Soon after, The Master Strategist could have a change of heart and betray Jey Uso, to Seth Rollins' surprise. He could leave his friend high and dry and give Rollins an easy target.

The betrayal could stem from jealousy, which could see Jey Uso receive more sympathy from fans as he tries to take down the heels all by himself.
