In a moment so heartwarming it nearly erased years of chair shots, betrayal, and family trauma, Sami Zayn returned on WWE Raw After WrestleMania to deliver a message to the newly crowned WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso: “You earned this, yeet machine.”
The Vegas crowd, already high on confetti and closure, erupted as Jey Uso made his way to the ring with the title on his shoulders and emotions leaking from every pore. Chants of “You deserve it” and “He tapped out!” filled the arena like a therapy session in full surround sound.
Jey, choking back what may or may not have been actual tears (or just very intense sweat), promised to keep showing up, putting in the work, and yeeting until the wheels fall off.
Then the music hit.
Sami Zayn returned for the first time since his Elimination Chamber showdown with Kevin Owens—aka the match that doubled as a live-action trauma documentary—and marched straight to the ring wearing a smile that said, “I’ve seen hell, and it smells like kendo sticks.”
Sami didn’t attack. He didn’t challenge. He just looked his old friend in the eye and said what the whole WWE Universe had been thinking:
“I had to make sure that I was the first one to stand across the ring from you, look you in the eye, man to man, with that championship on your shoulders, and tell you how proud I am of you.”
The crowd melted. Jey nearly melted. Sami led the arena in a group “Yeet” like it was a spiritual experience.
But then—plot twist with a family-sized twist—Jimmy Uso joined the party. Yes, the same Jimmy Uso who once kicked his brother out of The Bloodline like last season’s leftovers.
Now? Hugs. Smiles. Walk-offs up the ramp like a Hallmark movie with pyro.
Whether it’s a one-night peace treaty or a slow-cooked reunion, one thing is for sure: Jey Uso is finally the World Champion, and for the first time in a long time, the yeet is undefeated.
