SHOCKING WWE ALLIANCE! Jey Uso Defeats Gunther at WWE SmackDown Live Event to Win the Championship — With Rhea Ripley’s Help!
In one of the most unexpected twists of 2025, Jey Uso captured championship gold at a WWE SmackDown live event by defeating the dominant Gunther — but it wasn’t just the victory that shocked fans. It was the unlikely alliance with former Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley that left the WWE Universe speechless.
The event, held in Chicago, was expected to be a routine title defense for Gunther, whose reign has been one of the longest and most dominant in modern WWE history. But what unfolded was far from business as usual.
A Shocking Turn of Events
In a hard-hitting contest that had the crowd on edge, Jey Uso looked to be on the verge of defeat multiple times. Gunther, with his trademark precision and brutality, had Jey locked in a series of submission holds and powerbombs that nearly ended the match.
Then, just as Gunther looked to land the final blow, the lights briefly dimmed — and the crowd erupted as Rhea Ripley stormed down the ramp, dressed in black and eyes locked on the ring.
In a shocking moment, Rhea distracted the referee while Jey hit a low blow on Gunther, followed by a top-rope Uso Splash. The ref turned just in time to count the 1-2-3.
Jey Uso is now your new Intercontinental Champion — and apparently aligned with Rhea Ripley.
Why Did Rhea Help Jey?
No one saw this coming. Rhea Ripley has been out of action due to injury and previously associated with The Judgment Day. Her involvement in this match not only marks her return, but a shocking turn that raises major questions.
Is this a new faction? A mutual respect alliance? Or something even deeper?
WWE has yet to release a statement, but backstage sources are calling this pairing “the wild card power duo WWE never expected.”
What’s Next?
With Jey holding championship gold and Ripley by his side, the landscape of WWE just changed in a major way. Gunther’s streak is broken. Rhea is back. And the Uce just made history.
Stay tuned — because Jey Uso and Rhea Ripley are just getting started.
