Jey Uso achieves major milestone ahead of WWE RAW; surpasses Roman Reigns
Jey Uso has achieved a major milestone ahead of tonight's edition of WWE RAW and has surpassed Roman Reigns. Main Event Jey competed in the King of the Ring tournament this year but was eliminated by Gunther.
Jey Uso departed The Bloodline last year and battled Roman Reigns in a Tribal Combat match at SummerSlam 2023. However, Jimmy Uso betrayed his brother and helped Roman Reigns remain in charge of The Bloodline. Jimmy Uso lost to Jey Uso last month at WrestleMania XL, and Solo Sikoa kicked him out of the group following the match.
According to WrestleOps on X, Jey Uso has the top-selling t-shirt on WWE Shop. The Head of the table ranks at number two on the list, as seen in the post below.
Roman Reigns has not appeared on WWE television since his loss to Cody Rhodes in the main event of Night 2 of WrestleMania. Solo Sikoa has taken over as leader of The Bloodline during Reigns' hiatus. Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa have also both joined the heel group on SmackDown in recent weeks.

Wrestling legend Teddy Long shared his thoughts on the match between Jimmy and Jey Uso at WrestleMania XL last month in Philadelphia.
The singles match at The Show of Shows did not receive rave reviews, but Teddy Long didn't see an issue with the bout. Speaking on a recent edition of Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine podcast, Long claimed that he didn't see anything wrong with the match and wasn't sure what people were expecting.
"I just didn't see anything wrong. I don't know what people are really talking about. I mean, what do you want the guys to do?" [From 04:02 – 04:08]
