“It’s Back”: Jey Uso Confirms Revival of “Yeet” Catchphrase Days After Facing Trademark Challenges

Jey Uso, renowned for his electrifying performances in WWE’s Main Event, recently excited fans with the return of his popular “Yeet” catchphrase. However, beneath the surface of this triumphant announcement lies a legal saga. Pro-wrestler Kasey Huffman claims trademark rights to “Yeet,” potentially entangling Uso in legal woes.

But Jey Uso has confirmed that the complexities surrounding the catchphrase are gone. WWE’s cautious maneuvers to avoid legal troubles, and Uso’s unwavering determination to keep “yeeting” have been successful.

Jey Uso is excited to have his catchphrase back

Main Event Jey Uso posted a story on his Instagram story a message for his fans that his “Yeet” catchphrase is back. In the story posted Jey Uso could be seen wearing a white vest with the catchphrase ‘Yeet’ printed on it as he walks down the ramp. The text for the clip reads, “It’s back” indicating the return despite the legal issues.

Jey Uso began using a catchphrase that gained popularity among fans recently. However, it has come to light that Kasey Huffman, a pro-wrestler from West Virginia, has held the trademark for the word “Yeet” since 2021.

This ownership could potentially lead to legal issues for Uso due to his ongoing use of the word. Although the matter can be settled in a civil court it may result in a loss of a huge sum of money amounting up to $2 million. It may also contain jail time if the matter goes towards a federal court.

Hence, WWE started avoiding the usage of the catchphrase to avoid any legal troubles. It was evident during the episode of RAW on 4th December when WWE blurred Jey Uso’s white vest which had the word Yeet.

Despite all the troubles, WWE and their superstars were confident that they would get a hold of the catchphrase.

Jey Uso was seen avoiding the usage of the phrase during his last appearance on The Bump Podcast on December 6th. While Uso decided to avoid using the phrase, another guest Trick Williams used it to refer to the Main Event. Jey Uso responded with a smile that was a sign of confidence that he would get his catchphrase back.

A former Bloodline member was invited to an interview with Daily Mail UK recently where he was asked about the restriction on his favourite catchphrase. He hilariously responded by saying the word again. It showed confidence that he would get back his Yeet catchphrase. He said, “Yeah man, they trying to shut my yeet down. We’ll get past that, though. I’m still going to be out there yeeting.”
