Kofi reminded Jey about Kofimania in 2019 where none thought he could claim a win. Kingston said he became a world champion and Xavier added they could not wait to see Jey lose to Gunther. As the New Day duo took a dig at the Bloodline star, Jey did not waste much time and got straight to the point.
How did Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso help KofiMania?
The Main Event Jey claimed Kofimania wouldn't exist if Usos didn't forfeit their Gauntlet Match. Jey moved out of the scene and Xavier stopped Kofi from saying anything further. Fans felt the segment was a good callback for the past when the Usos had sacrificed their being for the New Day's good.
Six tag teams - New Day, The Bar, Daniel Bryan and Rowen, The Usos, Anderson and Gallows, and Rusev and Shinsuke Nakamura, were up against each other in a Gauntlet match in 2019. If the New Day's Woods and Big E claimed a win, Kofi was promised a shot at the world title at WrestleMania.
In one of the most selfless acts in the history of the company, the Usos decided to forfeit the match out of respect for the faction. Jey reminded Kofi and Woods about his and Jimmy's selfless act which helped Kofi to become the world champion.
