Jey Uso has had a monumental 2024, solidifying himself as a singles star with high-profile feuds, a show-stopping clash with his brother Jimmy Uso at WrestleMania 40, and capturing the Intercontinental Title. But there’s one prize still eluding him—the coveted World Heavyweight Championship.

During an appearance on Cheap Heat, Jey opened up about his hunger to add the prestigious title to his resume, revealing how his breakout year built his confidence. “Yeah, man, it just puts a stamp on you,” Jey said when asked about his first singles title win.

“If you’re a wrestler, you want to hold a damn WWE Championship one time, a World Heavyweight Championship one time. I want to hold that s**t. I ain’t ever thought about being a champion like that until I got the IC Title, man. Until ‘24 popped off the way it did, it built my confidence. It made me believe, hell yeah, I could be the face, Uce.”

Jey made it clear that becoming World Champion isn’t just a goal—it’s inevitable in his mind. “Yeah, I want the title,” he declared. “I’ll take it off of anybody, just give me the shot. Gunther, whoever it is, Cody Rhodes, we can run it. I’m telling you, I’m gonna get the big one. No one believes that, just like they doubted me the whole time. It’s all good. I’m used to that. It’s just fuel to the fire. But I’m gonna get that, I’m gonna get it. I’m putting it out there right now.”
