4 Fresh Jey Uso Opponents for IC Title Matches on WWE Raw
Intercontinental champion Jey Uso appears to be on a collision course with Bron Breakker over the title, presumably as soon as Crown Jewel on November 2.
That matchup would be a retread of the contest on the September 23 edition of Raw when Uso captured the gold and seemed to conclude their rivalry.
But what’s next for Uso?
Here are four fresh matchups for the IC champion moving forward, each with a different origin or reason why they should be considered.
Drew McIntyre was one of the first Superstars to denounce Jey Uso’s arrival in Raw a year ago, citing his role with The Bloodline and the number of competitors he had screwed over in their pursuit and defense of the Undisputed WWE Championship.
Despite the Scot’s insistence that Uso cannot be trusted, the two never had a real feud or high-profile match to settle their differences.
While some may look at the IC title as a step down for a star the magnitude of McIntyre, such a program would further elevate the championship while giving it a legitimate and layered storyline.
The only negative is that one of the two Superstars would have to lose. Assuming the goal is not to take the gold off of Uso this early in his run, that would mean The Scottish Warrior suffers another key defeat on the heels of his loss to CM Punk at Bad Blood, which is something he cannot afford now.
