Jey Uso Made History With WWE Intercontinental Title Win

As seen on this week’s episode of WWE Raw, Jey Uso beat Bron Breakker to win the Intercontinental Title. This marks Uso’s first singles title win in WWE.

Uso earned his title bout after winning a #1 contender’s Intercontinental Title tournament that had played out over the last few weeks ago on Raw. Breakker had won the title from Sami Zayn at SummerSlam before retaining it on an episode of Raw in a best two out of three falls match.

Uso made history as a result. Uso and Rikishi became the only second father-son duo in company history to both hold the Intercontinental Championship. They join “Mr. Perfect” Curt Hennig & his son, Curtis Axel, in that accomplishment.

Rikishi held the title in June 2000 before losing it 13 days later to Val Venis. That was his only singles title reign in WWE.

As for the other duo, Mr. Perfect held the Intercontinental Championship twice from April 1990 to August 1991, lasting 404 days. Axel won it in June 2013 at Payback when he defeated Wade Barrett and The Miz in a triple threat match before losing it to Big E on a November episode of Raw, ending his reign at 155 days.
