Watch: Jey Uso wins Men's Royal Rumble

By Andrew Wright  |  Last updated Feb 1, 2025 10:49 PM ET

For the first time in his career, Jey Uso has won the Men's Royal Rumble and will go on to main event WrestleMania 41.

Uso outlasted 29 other superstars to punch his ticket to the main event in Las Vegas.

After entering at No. 20, Uso lasted over 30 minutes in the Royal Rumble on the way to his victory.

He eliminated the returning, 16-time WWE champion John Cena to pull off one of the most incredible upsets in the history of the Royal Rumble match.

Just one week ago, Uso fell short at the "Saturday Night's Main Event" premium live event in a World Heavyweight Championship match against Gunther.

He will now have to chance to challenge Gunther at WrestleMania and win his first World Championship.

Uso could go another route and challenge his longtime friend Cody Rhodes, which would be quite a surprise to most people.
