Jey Usos latest WWE push has sparked heavy debate online, but now a member of his own family is stepping in to defend him and he didnt hold back. Following Usos victory on the February 23, 2026 episode of WWE RAW to secure the final spot in the Mens Elimination Chamber match, WWE uploaded the match highlight to YouTube. While the moment marked another major step for Usos main event run, the online reaction was sharply divided. The video quickly racked up over 163,000 views, but the engagement ratio told a different story, sitting at 72.6% dislikes with more than 14,000 dislikes compared to just 5,300 likes. The backlash reflects ongoing criticism from parts of the Internet Wrestling Community, many of whom have voiced frustration with Usos sustained position near the top of WWEs card. Some fans have also taken aim at his signature yeet catchphrase and the in-match encores he performs, even during high-profile matches like WarGames and the Royal Rumble. In a new interview with No-Contest Wrestling, Jacob Fatu addressed those critics directly and made it clear he isnt interested in their complaints. He called out fans for turning on something they once embraced and questioned the authenticity of their criticism. Fatu then delivered an even more blunt message, telling critics to stop overanalyzing and simply enjoy the product. He continued by pointing out what he sees as a contradiction among fans who continue watching despite their complaints. Fatu closed by emphasizing that continued criticism only proves Usos relevance and drawing power. Despite the online negativity, Usos connection with live crowds remains undeniable. His entrance routinely generates massive reactions inside arenas, and WWE has continued positioning him as one of its top stars following his World Heavyweight Championship run and continued involvement in major storylines. Whether the criticism fades or continues, one thing is clear Uso remains firmly in WWEs spotlight, and his family isnt staying quiet when it comes to defending him. Do you think Jacob Fatu is right about fans criticizing Jey Uso while still watching him, or does the backlash reflect real frustration with his push? Leave your thoughts and feedback below.
