Jey Uso is coming for Gunther at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event.
'The Ring General' stormed to the ring on the January 13 edition of WWE Raw and expressed his discontentment with the current state of WWE, saying that nobody cares about who is the 'Best In The World' or the 'Tribal Chief'. Gunther proceeded to put over the importance of his World Heavyweight Championship before being interrupted by Jey Uso.
Uso hit the ring and talked about his desire to face Gunther for the belt, noting that all of his other problems are now behind him.

Gunther responded in a harsh manner, criticizing Uso for his lack of main event talent but praising his popularity and entertainment factor. Gunther also went on to seemingly accept Uso's challenge for a match at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event before also tearing down Uso and suggesting that he stay out of championship business.
Gunther: "Jey Uso, te voy a exponer como lo que eres: un gran luchador para tag teams. Para ti, lo de main event es un nick. Para mí, main event es donde pertenezco. Me quedaría solo en el YEET, y no en negocios de campeones"

Uso fired back passionately, saying that he continues to wake up every morning and bet on himself despite being scared to step out of the shadow of his tag team with his brother. Uso finished the promo by saying that he's going to beat Gunther's ass and take the World Heavyweight Championship from him at Saturday Night's Main Event.
"Everything you said was right... I was scared to do this on my own... But I continue to bet on myself!... It's not just a nickname, it's where I belong!" - Jey Uso to Gunther
