Jey Uso advances in WWE King of the Ring amid fan backlash

Jey Uso has advanced in the WWE King of the Ring tournament, defeating LA Knight, Finn Balor, and Royce Keys on SmackDown. Uso will now face Je’Von Evans in the semifinals, with the winner going on to compete in the finals at Night of Champions on June 27. Despite his progress, fan reception has turned negative, as the announcement of his victory drew tens of thousands of dislikes online, marking at least the third instance of significant pushback against Uso's singles pushes. This backlash reflects ongoing fan fatigue with WWE's focus on The Bloodline storyline.
