Jey appeared on this week’s episode of Raw where he expressed his gratitude for fans and credited his Rumble victory to the fans and proudly declared that he was headed to the main event of WrestleMania.

During the segment, the World Heavyweight Champion Gunther appeared and berated Jey and said that if Jey chooses him for Mania every week leading to the grandest stage is going to be ‘hell.’

Jey fired back stating that he is tired of everybody telling him what he could and couldn’t do and announced that he would make an appearance on SmackDown to talk to Cody Rhodes. Jey also guaranteed Gunther that whoever he chooses he will walk out of Mania as the WWE Champion.
