Former AEW Star Defends WWE’s Jey Uso From In-Ring Criticism

Former AEW Star Defends WWE’s Jey Uso From In-Ring Criticism WWE/AEW

The January 25 2025 edition of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event saw Jey Uso challenge GUNTHER for the World Heavyweight Championship.

As can be seen in the highlights below this news story, GUNTHER’s victory would come after a Spear and Uso Splash saw Jey nearly score the win.

It was the spear that would cause some fans to criticize Jey Uso’s in-ring ability on social media, which led to former AEW star Fuego Del Sol to speak out in support of the WWE star.

Listing Jey Uso’s positives, Fuego Del Sol tweeted:

“Imagine having the most over catchphrase in wrestling right now and selling t shirts faster than ever, having great matches for over a decade, having an arena go crazy for you almost winning a world title…

“And the internet clipping a spear to make it seem like you are bad.”

A fan agreed with the assessment of the reaction to Uso, but noting that the “Spear was still horrendous” with the ex-AEW star agreeing:

“I agree the spear was bad. Jey Uso is not.”

With the three matches against Uso and three wins, GUNTHER has commented on his Saturday Night’s Main Event victory, which you can read more about right here.
