WWE Superstar Jey Uso has finally defeated Gunther at WrestleMania 41 Night 1 to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship for the first time in his career.

Jey Uso is the new world heavyweight champion. Uso defeated Gunther in the opening match of WrestleMania 41 on Saturday night, making good on the opportunity he received by winning the Royal Rumble in January.

Lengthy reigns have become the norm in the Triple H era, but having Uso be a transitional champion and trying to get more depth in his gimmick could be the ideal long-term move. Rollins can have a banger with anyone, and the in-ring work with Uso could exceed what the latter has been producing.
