As the road to WrestleMania 42 lights up Las Vegas, spectacle is guaranteed but in WWE, the moment always starts with the music. Entrance themes don’t just set the tone; they define legacy, energy, and identity before a single move is made in the ring,
For Jey Uso, sound is more than background noise, it’s fuel. It’s the pulse behind the ‘Yeet’ era, the rhythm of a performer stepping into new territory, and the bridge between who he’s been and who he’s becoming.
Curating his own “Vegas Vinyls” playlist, Jey brings together a mix as bold and unpredictable as Vegas itself, think the unapologetic grit of Nipsey Hussle, the raw intensity of Tupac Shakur, and an unexpected pop twist from Britney Spears. It’s a lineup that mirrors his journey: fearless, versatile, and impossible to box in.
But beyond the playlist, this chapter of Jey Uso’s career is about evolution. Stepping out on his own, embracing uncertainty, and proving both to himself and the WWE Universe that he can stand firmly on his own two feet.
Jey shared his thoughts on music, mindset, legacy, and what it really means to carve your own lane.
What’s currently on your playlist as you head into WrestleMania 42?
Nipsey Hustle – Hustle and Motivate
Tupac – Hit Em Up
Britney Spears – Oops I Did it Again
How would you describe this chapter of your life and career?
New waters. That is how I would describe it. A bit scary. A bit exciting. I feel blessed and I feel grateful.
What has the past year taught you about your own strengths and growth?
It has taught me that I am able to stand on my own two feet. I found out that I am good enough to be here, in this position.
What does success mean to you?
Persona success really means you don’t want to suck, right? Success comes and goes. I think success is a double-edged sword but in the end, it is the ultimate goal just to make it to the top. In a hard world of exotic animals, you have to be the most exotic one of them all.
Family has always been a big part of your story—how has that influenced the way you approach your career?
Family has always influenced me regardless of my career. Family first, always. Before money, before fame, before all of that. Because when everything is all gone, all you have left is your relationships with your family.
Coming from a wrestling family, when do you feel you started to make your legacy your own?
I feel like we made OUR legacy when I debuted with my brother. Because that is when we finally got in the game, which is a very hard thing to do. The truth is, I started a new legacy in 2023-2024 when I started to step out on my own and built the ‘Yeet Man.’
Entrance themes are such a huge part of WWE—how did you find your sound?
We are musical, period. So, it was kind of easy. The hardest part was just trying to find how to fit in the crowd participation.
If you could collaborate with any artist to create a new entrance theme, who would it be and why?
If I could collab with anyone, it would be Lil Wayne for sure. Lil Wayne is a favourite artist of mine. I grew up watching Wayne. He’s the goat. He’s the best rapper in the world right now. YEET.
When you need to reset or disconnect, what kind of music do you listen to?
Classical, gospel or reggae music.
How intentional are you with fashion when it comes to building your presence in and out of the ring?
I’m VERY intentional. Outfits are a big part of me. I’m very big on the drip. If I can say this… we (my brother Jimmy and I) are the most dripped out tag team in the game. I think I’m dripped out on my YEET run too.
What’s something you’re most excited for your fans to see next from you?
I would like to give one more ‘right hand man’ run. One more run, after this YEET man run. It would be really special and feel really real. I think that is one version of me that I think I would like to give the WWE Universe.
