Major Update On WWE's Booking Of Jey Uso
What WWE hopes to achieve with 'Main Event' Jey Uso on Raw.
Jey Uso is currently in the middle of a major solo run on WWE Raw - and the company is "very happy" with reactions to the push so far.
Fightful Select reports that WWE officials were confident of Jey's involvement in the long-running Bloodline angle launching him towards singles stardom. The process appears to be working so far.
Sources noted that moving Jey from SmackDown to Raw was a step in the process. The company has long-term plans for the 'Main Event' babyface, with a "heavily featured role that should carry at least through the next two months" seemingly in his future. As a result, Jey will continue to get plenty of airtime.
WWE officials remain pleased with how Jey is being reacted to.
Jey has been a Raw wrestler since this month's Payback premium live event, where he appeared for the first time since being betrayed by his brother and long-time tag team partner, Jimmy, the month before. This happened in the wake of Jey's inability to dethrone cousin and Bloodline leader Roman Reigns as Undisputed WWE Universal Champion.
Uso is currently aligned with Cody Rhodes in a program against the Judgment Day.
