Jey Uso on WWE heel turn allegations: Going back to ‘old Bloodline ways’

Jey Uso on WWE heel turn allegations: 'going back to old Bloodline ways'

Jey Uso has finally opened up on his heel turn teases.

For the past few months, the former World Champion has been displaying heel tendencies. Portraying a much more aggressive character on television, Uso has finally opened up on the teases.

During his appearance on Raw Recap, the 40-year-old addressed the speculation and discussed going back to his ‘old Bloodline ways’. While Uso claimed he did not undergo a heel turn, he also said, “Nothing really changed on me Uce. I still have fun, I still throw a party every Monday. I still like the kids, I still yeet with them. But when the bell rings I’ve got to switch modes now, if I’m trying to get to the top, I’ve got big hitters in front of me. Guys like CM Punk, guys like GUNTHER, guys like Seth Rollins.”

He further said, “I got a heavy list in front of me and I just can’t play no more I’m tired of people saying I’m just an entrance, I ain’t got the skills to hold it down up top. I just switch modes, I might be going back to the old ways, Bloodline ways but that kind of mentality got the job done.”

He has also been recently involved in tense segments with his brother, Jimmy Uso. Last week’s episode of Raw also planted more seeds for the heel turn as, Jey Uso willingly eliminated both Jimmy Uso and LA Knight to secure his match against CM Punk at Saturday Night’s Main Event for the World title.

Jey Uso talks Jimmy Uso’s WWE future

In the same Raw Recap episode, Jey Uso also opened up about his brother Jimmy Uso’s upcoming WWE run and potential World title shot.

Man, I’m never going to say no to Jimmy. Like, I’m never going to deny my brother of being one of the greatest tag teams of all time. I would love to run it back, being a ‘Super Team’ as you call it, Uce. But man, I think we’ve got unfinished business in this singles game right here. I think we still have a lot to prove. I want to see Big Jim get his title shot. I know it’s lurking around there, you know, whether it is RAW or SmackDown, my brother is going to get one. I’m happy for him to just be on that route too, man.”

Punk and Uso will collide for the vacant World Heavyweight Championship on the November 1st edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event in Salt Lake, Utah.
