Jey Uso Comments on His WWE World Title Loss to Gunther

As noted before, Monday’s WWE RAW show in Phoenix, Arizona featured Gunther defeating Jey Uso to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

Following the show, Uso gave a speech to the live crowd about him being grateful that his son got to be on the road with him over this past weekend and his loss to Gunther for the WWE World Heavyweight title.

“Ladies and gentlemen, this is my youngest son, Jace. I’m so happy — I brought him on the road with me this weekend. Y’all seen him a couple of times on videos with me. Even though I lost, I’m so glad he was here with me, traveling the road with me. I really wanna say I’m sorry to my son. I’m sorry to everybody here. I fought my ass off. GUNTHER is that dude. One of the best athletes, one of the best pros I ever stepped foot in the ring with. At the end of the night, I got hella respect for that man, so give it up for GUNTHER. But I’ma run it back. I’ma run it back. Aye Phoenix, y’all are lit. When I come out and do my entrance, I can feel the vibe in every other city. Aye, tonight though, tonight, y’all was turnt up. I wish everyone could experience what we get to experience back there, like walking through these curtains. I’m very, very blessed, man. I stay humble in front of y’all. I love what I do, I don’t ever take this for granted, all right? I love all of y’all. Parents, appreciate y’all’s hard work, spending money to bring y’all’s loved ones to a show. Kids, aye kids, real talk, tell your parents you love them, right? Listen to ‘em. Something simple as picking up after yourself means a lot. You feel me? You all heard me say this a couple of times because I got kids. Pick up after yourself, say your prayers, wash y’all’s ass when it’s bedtime, don’t get no attitude, brush y’all teeth, you know what I’m saying? Did you brush your teeth this morning?

Jacy Jayne Comments on Her NXT Women’s Title Victory & Mariah May’s Arrival in WWE

A recent episode of the Busted Open Radio podcast featured current WWE NXT Women’s Champion Jacy Jayne as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Jayne’s thoughts about her recent NXT Women’s Championship victory.

“I feel like it was validation, because I feel like I’ve always known I was capable of more than just being a tag team wrestler. It was just waiting for the right opportunity to show the world that. I feel like I have been in so many factions. I kind of just hopped around for a while so you never really saw that other side of me. But now I feel it is my chance to show the world that what you thought of me is not what I am and I am just getting started and I have so much more to show everybody.”

Jayne also gave her thoughts about how winning the title did not hit her until a few days later and her becoming emotional over its significance for her career in WWE.

“Yeah, I feel like it’s such a blur, to be honest with you (Jayne said about the night she won the NXT Women’s Title). That whole night I feel like is such a blur to me. I don’t know if I was just laser-focused or I was trying not to get in my head. I don’t really know what it was. But it really didn’t even hit me until like two days later. I came home from training one day and I just started bawling, for no reason. But, I feel like that was the first moment that it really hit me. Before that, I feel like I was just on autopilot. Just go, go, go, go, go.”

Jayne also gave her thoughts about former AEW talent Mariah May making her surprise debut in WWE during the June 3rd NXT show.

“So at first, I thought it was Tiffany (Stratton). I was like, oh my God! Tiffany’s here. But, then I was like, okay. Well, she doesn’t have a title. Can’t be Tiffany. But I’m excited. I welcome anybody to our division. Let’s see if you can hang with our division and it’s just another shot for me to show everyone that I’m better.”
