Jey Uso is free to Yeet once again, as WWE has seemingly secured the rights to use the term for merchandise.
Following Jey’s infamous appearance on the Fastlane post-show press conference, Yeet has been synonymous with the Monday Night Raw Superstar. Yeet has been a popular chant with fans and even made it onto merchandise for Main Event Jey.
The Return of Yeet
Earlier this week, it was reported that WWE had abandoned usage of Yeet, as the term had been trademarked in 2021 by Kasey Huffman, an independent wrestler based in West Virginia. WWE event went as far as to blur the term in video packages featuring Jey. While WWE had abandoned Yeet, it was noted that WWE had not given up on the term and that their legal team was working on things.
When Jey recently Yeet-ed on Twitter, speculation grew that perhaps some sort of deal had been struck to allow Yeet back in WWE. At a recent live event in Utica, New York, Jey was once again donned in a Yeet shirt and made it clear on social media that Yeet is back.

While Jey has his catchphrase back, it wasn’t enough to secure him the win. At the Utica event, Drew McIntyre defeated his rival after a low-blow and a pinfall. This event also saw Seth Rollins have some choice words for fans chanting for CM Punk.
