Cody Rhodes made a guest appearance on “The Grayson Waller Effect,” on WWE Payback. Rhodes acknowledged the usual pattern where Waller provokes him, they engage in a brawl, and he finishes it with a Cross Rhodes move. Instead, Rhodes decided to go down a different path and make a significant announcement.
Rhodes disclosed that he had used his influence within WWE to secure a spot for someone new on the Monday Night Raw roster. He then introduced Jey Uso as the latest addition to Raw.
JEY USO IS BACK!
Thanks to @CodyRhodes, Jey Uso is officially on #WWERaw!
How’s THAT for a #WWEPayback viral moment, @GraysonWWE?! pic.twitter.com/lWqKFS1jlG

Initially appearing excited about Uso’s presence, Waller couldn’t resist being insulting, and as a consequence, he received a swift superkick from Uso. Uso then celebrated his arrival, concluding the segment.
