In a recent interview on the Pat McAfee Show, Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns shared his heartfelt sentiments regarding his cousin Jey Uso’s opportunity to challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 41.
Reigns, a dominant force in WWE for years, conveyed immense pride in Jey’s growth and success.
“I can’t even put it in words. To see Jey be able to break through these barriers, to see him be able to push to the ceiling, and then also understand like, now he understands me a little better.”
Reigns, who has a complex on-screen history with Jey, particularly during the Bloodline saga, emphasized the enduring bond of family.
“You talk to him after Saturday, you talk to him after this weekend, and he’s gonna understand the elevation a little better. He probably already does. I’m sure he’s been busy as hell this whole week, and I’m just so proud of him. Family is family. Obviously, we’re gonna have some disagreements. We’re gonna butt heads here and there, but at the end of the day, I want my family healthy, and I want them here for a long time being very successful, and that’s exactly what he’s doing, so yeah man, Yeet.”
