Over the last few years Jey Uso has certainly taken his career to the next level. In 2025, Jey Uso won the Royal Rumble then he went on to defeat Gunther to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion at WrestleMania 41.
While it’s clear that Jey has millions of fans all over the world, he also receives a notable amount of hate on social media. Recently Jey spoke to Jackie Redmond about the negative reactions to his success, and he made it clear that he simply doesn’t care anymore.
“You want me to be honest? I really don’t care about the fans no more, because when I was doing my thing, they saw all the hate. I can’t miss it, it’s all in my face. Social media, whatever it is, when my name pops up, I see it out there. Most disliked video on WWE social media platforms, look it up Uce. Like 5, 6, 10 videos out there. It’s all good. If anything that lit a fire under me. All the noise, all the opinions, it is what it is because that’s part of the job.
While talking about whether or not he thinks he’s beloved by the fans Jey said, “I do. I take it back, it’s 50/50, I’m confused. Pulling me left and right, I yeet, I talk crap, I’m me now. My day ones know who they are, but there was a lot of people that did doubt me, still doubting me now.”
Jey Uso will be in action this weekend as he’s set to face off against Oba Femi in the King of the Ring finals at Night of Champions. Stay tuned for updates.
