WWE Raw: Jey Uso earns No. 1 contender spot following vacated world title
Jey Uso has secured the No. 1 contender spot for the World Heavyweight Championship after the title was vacated on WWE Raw.
Raw General Manager Adam Pearce opened Monday’s show by revealing that champion Seth Rollins had suffered an injury requiring surgery, sidelining him for an extended period. Rollins had been betrayed last week by his partners, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed, along with manager Paul Heyman.
During the show, Breakker, Reed, and Heyman—collectively known as The Vision—met with Pearce while Breakker still held the championship. Reluctantly, Breakker handed the title to Pearce, who announced a Battle Royal later in the main event to determine a new No. 1 contender. Pearce barred Breakker and Reed from participating due to their attack on Rollins.
CM Punk, previously named a No. 1 contender last week, provided commentary for the Battle Royal, which featured Raw’s top stars. Wrestlers were eliminated if thrown over the top rope with both feet hitting the floor.
The final four came down to Jey Uso, his twin brother Jimmy Uso, LA Knight, and “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio. Jey Uso eliminated LA Knight and then surprised his brother by tossing Jimmy Uso over the top rope. Mysterio nearly eliminated Jey, but he held on to win the match.
Jey Uso will now face CM Punk at Saturday Night’s Main Event on Nov. 1 for the vacated World Heavyweight Championship.
