Jimmy Uso Promo
Hobbled from breaking his toe at Survivor Series: War Games, Uso walks to the ring with a single crutch and wanted to talk about what’s in store for his future, that the coming year will be big for him. He has goals of a championship in his future, maybe the US Championship, maybe even the Undisputed champion. Right when he’s ready to celebrate, he takes a kick to the face from none other than Drew McIntyre.
McIntyre of course inherited the beef like Kendrick Lamar did for Pharell, assuming the bad guy role against the OG Bloodline from a seriously injured Bronson Reed. McIntyre attacked Jey Uso a couple weeks ago on Raw, and now he’s invading SmackDown to continue the carnage. Many (read: me) have been waiting for McIntyre to become the SmackDown heel and this may be setting up for a transfer portal.
Bianca and Naomi Promo
