AEW Star Helped Jey Uso Get “YEET” Back

Since breaking away from The Bloodline, Jey Uso has become one of the top stars on Monday Night Raw and he recently won the WWE Intercontinental Championship for the first time in his career.

Jey Uso’s “YEET” catchphrase has helped propel him to new heights, but last year there was a lot of uncertainty regarding whether or not WWE would be able to use the word after it was discovered that it had previously been trademarked by independent wrestler Kasey Huffman.

Luckily everything got resolved and QT Marshall of AEW recently explained to Gabby LaSpisa that he reached out to Cody Rhodes after he noticed that WWE had pulled “YEET” merchandise.

“I saw that they had the t-shirt up and then it was gone. I reached out to Cody and I said, ‘Hey, I know the kid that owns the word.’ He was like, ‘You think you can get in touch with him?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, I’ll call him right now.’

I don’t know how it happened, I got that kid, I spoke to him, I told Cody we’re in a little group chat. Within a day or two, Jey Uso had it. I’m not saying it was because of me.”
