This year, WWE SmackDown hosted the annual Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal instead of WrestleMania. The prestigious competition main evented the show, and in the end, Jey Uso emerged as the winner. He was one of the most dominant superstars inside the ring right from the beginning of the Battle Royal.

Towards the end, five WWE Superstars were left inside the ring – Mustafa Ali and Ricochet from RAW and Jey Uso, Shinsuke Nakamura, and King Corbin from SmackDown. Ricochet and Ali first started brawling, and the latter was eliminated. Ricochet barely got any time to celebrate because Uso immediately threw him over the top ring.

Following that, Corbin and Jey Uso teamed up to take on Nakamura. They brutalized The King of Strong Style together before Uso turned and attacked King Corbin. Nakamura got some time to recover, and he fired back by eliminating Corbin, who was tied up in the ropes. Jey Uso and Nakamura then battled inside the ring on WWE SmackDown.

In the end, Uso managed to grab Nakamura and throw him over the top rope to win the tournament. Once again, he proved that he is indeed the main event material. Jey Uso has emerged as one of the best heels in WWE over the past year. The creative should make the most of his current momentum by booking him in exciting feuds on WWE SmackDown.
