Jey Uso has said that he doesn’t care about the fans after rejoining the Bloodline and recent hate on social media.

Following Roman Reigns’ World Heavyweight Championship victory at WrestleMania 42, the Bloodline have once again been dominating WWE television, with the Usos rejoining Roman’s side, and later being joined by Jacob Fatu following his loss at Clash In Italy.

The decision for Jey to rejoin Roman after years of abuse from the Tribal Chief has left a lot of fans confused, with his recent victories in the King of the Ring Tournament also being met with a lot of backlash online.

Speaking to Jackie Redmond ahead of WWE Night of Champions, Jey admitted that he no longer cares about the fans following the recent online hate for his King of the Ring victories.

He said:

“You wanna 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.

“I do (think he’s beloved by the fans). 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.”
