Former WWE Star Defends Jey Uso Amidst Recent Criticism
A former WWE star has responded to online criticism labeling Jey Uso’s recent main event push as ‘forced’ by the company.
WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) is a global leader in sports entertainment, founded in 1953 as the Capitol Wrestling Corporation (CWC) before evolving into the World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF) in 1963 and later the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in 1979. Under Vince McMahon’s leadership after purchasing the company from his father in 1982, WWE transformed from a regional promotion into a worldwide phenomenon by breaking the traditional wrestling territory system and introducing high-profile events like WrestleMania in 1985. This era, known as the “Golden Age,” featured iconic stars such as Hulk Hogan, André the Giant, and “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, who helped popularize wrestling through mainstream media collaborations like MTV’s Rock ‘n’ Wrestling Connection.
Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, WWE underwent significant changes, including the “Attitude Era,” marked by edgier content and rivalries like Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. The Rock. The company rebranded as World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in 2002 due to a legal dispute with the World Wildlife Fund. WWE expanded into film, music, and digital media while maintaining its dominance in wrestling entertainment. Key moments included the rise of John Cena in the “Ruthless Aggression Era” and the acquisition of WCW and ECW, solidifying WWE’s monopoly in the industry.
Today, WWE operates under TKO Group Holdings, producing family-friendly programming broadcast in over 165 countries and 20+ languages. With brands like Raw, SmackDown, and NXT, WWE continues to innovate, blending athleticism with storytelling. The company’s legacy includes legendary figures like The Undertaker, Triple H, and Roman Reigns, while maintaining a massive fanbase through social media, streaming, and live events. WWE remains a cultural powerhouse, celebrating over 70 years of sports entertainment history.
