Jey Uso Injured, MRI Set For Next Week

That’s a rough way to go. There are all kinds of injuries that can take place in any wrestling match and unfortunately there is little way around it. A wrestler can get hurt doing the simplest of moves and it can derail plans for a very long time to come. It can happen to anyone, including a champion, which seems to be the case again as a reigning WWE champion is having an issue.

This weekend at WWE Crown Jewel, it was announced that Jey Uso believed he had broken his wrist during a live event during the week. Uso is expected to undergo an MRI on his wrist on Monday to gauge the severity of his injury. Uso and his brother Jimmy retained the WWE Tag Team Titles over the Brawling Brutes. They are set to defend the titles against the New Day next week on SmackDown. It is not clear if the injury is legitimate or part of a storyline.

Opinion: Hopefully this is just a storyline issue as it would be terrible to see Jey put on the shelf for any reason, especially when the team is so close to the record for longest Tag Team Title reign. The Usos have been such dominant champions for so long and it would be horrible for it to end this way. Maybe Jey can wrestle through the injury, but it wouldn’t surprise me to see the titles change hands next week.
