In the world of WWE, alliances, and allegiances are often fragile and subject to rapid shifts in loyalty and strategy. Jey Uso a prominent member of the Judgment Day faction found himself at the center of attention during his main event match with the formidable Drew McIntyre. Uso received encouragement and support from his fellow Judgment Day comrades including Finn Balor, Damian Priest, and Dominik Mysterio who were at ringside.

However, in a twist of fate, Uso demonstrated his independence and resilience by delivering a superkick to each of his associates during the heated match. This unexpected betrayal momentarily left his compatriots stunned but the tables turned when Uso encountered the devastating Claymore kick from McIntyre resulting in his defeat.

As the former Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions, Owens and Zayn are determined to reclaim their place at the top of the tag team division. Their quest for redemption comes after a loss to Judgment Day at WrestleMania 39 and their involvement in the ongoing storyline adds layers of complexity to the narrative.

One intriguing aspect of this championship match is the uncertainty surrounding Jey Uso’s role. Owens displaying a cautious approach expressed doubts about placing his trust in Uso when Zayn and Cody Rhodes attempted to vouch for the former Bloodline member. The question of Uso’s allegiance and whether it will come into play during the title bout looms large adding a compelling dimension to the contest.
