Booker T On Why He Wants Jey Uso To Beat Roman Reigns At SummerSlam

Two-time WWE Hall of Famer and NXT commentator is pulling for Jey Uso to capture the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at SummerSlam.

This Saturday’s event will see Jey challenge his cousin Roman Reigns for both the title and Reigns’ position as the ‘Tribal Chief.’

During the latest episode of his “Hall of Fame podcast,” Booker shared his excitement for Jey possibly winning in ‘Tribal Combat.’ He said,

“It’s a great story for Jey to try to take the Head of the Table. I mean, it’s a great time to do it. So yeah, I love it, man. It puts Jey in a great position to solidify himself as maybe the next guy. You never know… If Jey did it — you know me, man. I’m going to be proud. I’m gonna be like, ‘Wow, man, he did it. He stayed the course. He went out there and cashed in. They believed in him, and he didn’t let them down. He went out there and performed.’

“That’s what I’m loving about the Usos — both of them — go out there and do their thing. I’m serious. Those guys — I’m proud of both for what they’ve achieved and what they’ve accomplished in WWE.”

WWE SummerSlam 2023 will take place on August 5, at Ford Field in Detroit Michigan. The show will be day 1,070 of Reigns’ historic title reign.
