Jey Uso On Criticism Of His WWE Royal Rumble Win: They Talk It Because They Can’t Walk It

Jey Uso’s victory in the 2025 Men’s Royal Rumble has the WWE fanbase divided, as some were happy to see him win it, while others think he’s not worthy of the moment. To win, he had to overcome the likes of John Cena, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk.

While speaking on the Pat McAfee Show, Uso addressed the reactions, including those who have criticized the move.

Jey said, “That’s them, Uce. That’s them. That’s your opinion. You don’t strap my boots every week. You’re not on the road every week. All the bumps, handshakes, the side stepping no one sees. Early flights and rental cars. We’re not traveling with security guards. I’m in the trenches like everybody else. I don’t pay no mind to that. I don’t need any of that. I’m just going to focus [forward], tunnel vision. Either hop on the train or get off the train. There are a lot of haters out there, Uce. They talk it because they can’t walk it. I’m excited. I’m all positive. I never thought I would be at this level. Now I’m here and I got places to go. Yeet.”

Jey is set to appear on tonight’s WWE Raw, with speculation that he will announce his intentions to challenge GUNTHER for the World Title at WrestleMania 41.
