Will Adam Pearce replace Jey Uso at MITB 2025 with a WWE veteran?
Things are looking rough for Jey Uso heading into Money in the Bank 2025. On this week's episode of Monday Night RAW, Seth Rollins and his crew launched a vicious attack on Jey. To make matters worse, Bronson Reed hit him with multiple Tsunamis, leaving fans seriously worried about how Jey's holding up—especially with a huge tag team match just days away.
Jey is scheduled to team up with Cody Rhodes this Saturday to take on John Cena and Logan Paul. But after what went down on RAW, there's real concern he won't be cleared to compete.
And that's not the only thing on Jey's plate.
He's also got to defend his World Heavyweight Title against Gunther next week on RAW. Between that and all the enemies he's got right now—Rollins' crew, Cena and Logan, and Gunther—he's being pulled in every direction. It's no surprise that RAW GM Adam Pearce might have to step in and pull Jey from the tag match at MITB for the sake of his health.

If that happens, fans are already speculating about a possible replacement. The most obvious (and dramatic) choice? Jey's own brother, Jimmy Uso. Sure, the two have had their ups and downs, but when it really matters, Jimmy's always shown up for Jey. If Jey can't go, Jimmy stepping in would make for one heck of a moment.
That said, nothing is official yet. We still don't know the full extent of Jey's injuries, and Pearce hasn't made any announcements.
Meanwhile, Gunther isn't wasting time. The Ring General is locked in on getting his title back from Jey, and he's been pretty vocal about it. He lost to Jey at WrestleMania 41 after tapping out, but on RAW this week, he made it clear he's ready for revenge.
'Because ever since that day I lost to you at WrestleMania, I knew I'd avenge this. And right now? You're making it very, very easy for me. Jey in one week, the party is over.'
Gunther clearly thinks Jey's taking on too much—and honestly, he might have a point.
Jey hasn't even held the title for two months yet, and while WWE usually lets champs keep the belt a while, this could be one of those rare moments where they shake things up fast. If Jey's not at 100%, Gunther could easily take advantage and walk out with the gold.
Jey Uso's got a brutal week ahead of him—if he can even make it to Saturday. And right now, nothing feels guaranteed.

"Just switching girlfriends": Cam Newton reacts as Offset links up with Stefon Diggs' ex while Cardi B stays close to NFL star
Cam Newton's words hit home in the love feud (Image via Getty) Cam Newton throws sharp insight into the brewing celebrity tension involving Stefon Diggs, Cardi B , and Offset, describing the whole dynamic as messy and unstrategic. While social media speculates over yacht parties and club appearances, the former NFL MVP shifts the focus to personal value and intent. Newton's take not only puts Diggs in a stronger light but also questions the authenticity behind Offset's recent moves. This escalating situation is no longer just celebrity gossip — it's becoming a cultural case study in pride, relationships, and public image. Newton compares Offset-Diggs saga to high school games Cam Newton's commentary arrived after reports surfaced that Offset had been seen at a club with Sky Marlene, Stefon Diggs' ex-girlfriend. This followed recent buzz about Diggs and Cardi B appearing together at a yacht party, amid Offset's rumored efforts to reconcile with his ex-wife. Newton didn't hold back as he dissected the drama, making it clear that both Offset and Diggs are treating relationships like competitions. For Newton, the situation reflects more than just headlines — it's a showcase of male ego on display. Reacting to the latest twist in the MESSY Cardi B x Offset drama In a clip shared over the weekend, Newton likened their actions to students cheating in school. 'Offset switches his grade or paper with, you know what I'm saying, Stefon. Stefon switches his paper. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed!

His remarks point to a lack of maturity in how both public figures are handling the emotional fallout. Ex-NFL MVP weighs in on Cardi B dating drama He further added, 'You feel what I'm saying? Because like, this is… ah, it's getting a little sloppy. It is. You think so? It's, like … Okay, I see what you're trying to do.' Newton observed that it's less about genuine connection and more about symbolic wins. ' You competing. But y'all just switching girlfriends. It's, like, … what is this? What are we doing?' His tone suggested confusion and criticism, mixed with slight understanding of Offset's retaliatory mindset. Newton ultimately sided with Diggs, pointing out the financial and status dynamics between the two men. 'How much is Offset worth? Ok, thank you,' Newton said. 'He's got some money, but not Stefon money. ' Stefon Diggs is WINNING the Offseason… and Offset can't handle it! He added that men often compare themselves in terms of value when their former partners move on. 'When your ex-girl dating somebody new, the first thing you're going to ask is: 'How much is he worth?' In some capacity, you compare: 'How does he stack up against me?''
