Jey Uso will challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas. While Royal Rumble winners often become new champions at The Show of Shows, several scenarios could unfold if the “Yeet Master” falls short against The Ring General.
WWE could reduce or end Jey Uso’s singles push if he loses at WrestleMania. Despite strong crowd support during entrances, promos, and matches, Jey has experienced multiple losses, including a short Intercontinental Championship reign and previous defeats against Gunther.
Without continued fan support following another high-profile loss, Triple H might reconsider the current direction for The Bloodline member.

Jey Uso could potentially align himself with The Rock if desperation sets in after another championship defeat. As one of WWE’s biggest babyfaces, a loss at the grand stage of WrestleMania might drive him to extreme measures.
Similar to John Cena’s recent heel turn, Jey might sell his soul to The Final Boss in pursuit of championship gold, giving The Rock control of two major heel turns and strong contenders for both top men’s titles.
A loss to Gunther could lead Jey Uso to shift focus toward John Cena. With Cody Rhodes potentially losing the Undisputed WWE Championship to Cena at WrestleMania, Jey could take up the challenge of bringing down the 17-time champion.
This direction would keep Jey relevant in a major storyline while allowing WWE to extend Gunther’s title reign.
After an unsuccessful championship bid, Jey Uso might temporarily step away from WWE programming. Having been a regular presence on Raw with numerous storyline involvements, a defeat could provide narrative justification for a brief hiatus.
This break would allow for Jey’s eventual return with a refreshed character or storyline direction.
