In an interview with Gorilla Position Podcast, Jey Uso revealed the amount of freedom he gets to write his own promos. WWE is very particular on wrestlers scripting their own promos. In this case, both Roman Reigns and Jey Uso were given ample freedom to write their own lines and dialogues.

Jey Uso has new creative freedom

“They can’t write how he feels about me and how I feel about him,” said Jey in the interview. What he says makes a world of sense to any wrestling fan who’s heard wrestler after wrestler delivering boring promos written by WWE’s creative team. “We got to the level where they trust us and let us do our thing”, said Jey.

Jey described the feeling of being given the freedom to write his own promos in a very unusual way. He said, “It feels good to finally get to that level where they took the chains off us.”

Vince McMahon allows only a handful of stars to cut their own promos. The rest are at the mercy of creatives. Maybe Vince’s control on the wrestler’s creativity in terms of talking on the microphone feels like shackles.

Uso vs Reigns has become intensely personal

The promo exchanges between Roman Reigns and Jey Uso have been very intense. The emotional connect between the two is very tangible, because of which the rivalry seems very real and not superficial at all. “In terms of what I’m saying and what he is saying, not a lot. I am reacting to what he is saying because they can’t write our promos,” said Uso.

Jey Uso vs Roman Reigns is probably the best rivalry in WWE right now, and maybe even the best rivalry over the WWE Universal Championship. Their match at Clash of Champions was a storytelling masterpiece. The in-ring action was decent at best with Roman brutalising his cousin. It was the story that took the match to the next level.

Roman faces Jey Uso at Hell in a Cell in a namesake match. The match will be inside the cell and will have an additional ‘I Quit’ stipulation. The Universal Champion has promised consequences for Jey Uso if he beats him inside the cell. Hence, Uso is hellbent in proving to Roman and the rest of the WWE Universe that he is more than just a tag player.
