WWE plans to set up Jey Uso and Logan Paul for the World Heavyweight Championship at Saturday Night’s Main Event

WWE Champion Jey Uso and Logan Paul became the most-talked-about in the company due to their recent feud at the WWE RAW edition of May 5, 2025. In a dramatic turn of events, Logan Paul launched a surprise attack on World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso after the show went off air.The attack occurred when Jey Uso was celebrating after his match against Seth Rollins, and was busy interacting with fans.The ambush, captured in off-air footage, showed Paul, clad in a black hoodie, emerging from the crowd to strike Jey Uso. However, after the dispute, backstage updates suggest that WWE is planning to set up a match between the duo soon.WWE is reportedly planning a World Heavyweight Championship match between Jey Uso and Logan Paul at the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event in Tampa, Florida. According to Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, a World Heavyweight Championship match between Jey Uso and Logan Paul is currently scheduled for the event, which will be taped live in front of a red-hot crowd.Reports suggest that the venue, Tampa’s Yuengling Center, is nearly sold out, with 9,224 tickets already distributed out of a 9,762 setup capacity. The cheapest remaining ticket is listed at $83, indicating strong demand and an expected sell-out that should create an electric atmosphere for the taping.The event is also being heavily advertised around Undisputed WWE Champion John Cena, who is featured prominently in all promotional materials. While not officially confirmed, this level of marketing has fueled speculation that Cena may compete or defend his championship at the event, potentially making for a double main event scenario.Confirming the same, Wrestling Observer Newsletter stated that, “The Jey Uso title match with Logan Paul is right now scheduled to be taking place on the Saturday Night’s Main Event show, which has 9,224 tickets out in Tampa and has an $83 get-in price. The television set up for the building is 9,762, so it’s a lock to sell out. The advertising of the show is based around Cena, so one would think he’d wrestle, but having both Cena and Uso defend the titles seems like a lot for a television show. Especially when you don’t even do that for the PLE shows.”Also Read: Is former NJPW star Jeff Cobb to make his debut on WWE Backlash 2025? - The Times of IndiaHowever, nothing about the match between WWE Champion Jey Uso and Logan Paul has been officially confirmed by the company.
