Fan Favorite Jey Uso’s Topps History
“I’m the man of the people now,” Jey Uso said in a recent interview with Daniel Cormier. “I’m the new People’s Champ now, or will be. But I do love the people, man, because I feel like they watched me raise up, they watched my whole story in front of them, and I was never supposed to be the top guy.”
Uso is about to get another shot at the crown, squaring off in a rematch with WWE World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, at WrestleMania 41.
The 39-year old WWE star has paid his dues. From a legendary run with World Champion tag team The Usos, formed with his brother Jimmy, his popularity has only grown during his solo run. Now, he’s getting ready for the fight of his life.
Uso’s ascension through the ranks was celebrated with a major rollout in 2025 Topps Chrome WWE. From a fantastic base card to parallels, variations, inserts, autos, and an Allen & Ginter Chrome offering, collectors can chase Uso in many different ways.
As Jey Uso looks to put the cherry on top of his star turn at Wrestlemania 41, let’s take a look at his career and cards. Yeet!
Brothers in Arms
In May 2010, Jey and Jimmy made their debut on Raw alongside cousin Tamina. A debut fight followed shortly thereafter, where they defeated Goldust and Mark Henry. Heels at first, The Usos and Tamina lost their PPV debut against The Hart Dynasty. In March 2014, The Uso’s took home their first WWE title, bringing down the New Age Outlaws.
Jey Uso’s earliest Topps card can be found in 2010 Topps Platinum WWE. An X-Fractor version sold recently for $50.
Uso made his Topps Chrome Debut in 2014, and its top sale to date, per Card Ladder, is $300 for a Gold Refractor numbered to 50. PSA has a population of only 6 for this card, including 5 PSA 10s.
The Usos are undoubtedly one of the greatest tag teams ever, holding the record for the longest championship reign at 622 days, from 2021-2023. Three-time WWE Tag Team Champions and five-time WWE Smackdown Tag Team Champion, The Usos were a force to be reckoned with.
The reign as champs ended at WrestleMania 39, when the duo were defeated by Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. It was the first time since the first WrestleMania that a tag team fight was a main event on wrestling’s biggest stage. Their 2020 Topps Finest Superfractor 1/1 sold for $500.99 in May 2024.
The Bloodline
The Bloodline was a huge step in the evolution of Jey Uso’s career. Originally formed by Jey, his brother, and WWE superstar Roman Reigns, it remains a major faction in the WWE Universe. The Bloodline Civil War, in which Uso feuded with Reigns, was a huge storyline that helped propel Jey to even greater heights. The Usos defeated Reigns and Solo Sikoa in The Bloodline Civil War match in 2023. Over a year later, Reigns and the Usos reunited.
Despite the chaos that followed, 2021 Topps Finest WWE captured The Usos and Roman Reigns on this triple autograph card, which has sold for as much as $600.
Going Solo
Jey Uso’s solo run has included an Undisputed WWE Universal Championship loss to Reigns, during which his brother Jimmy betrayed him, and an Intercontinental Championship victory over Bron Breakker, his first-ever singles title.
Uso’s energetic, charismatic, and entertaining personality has spurred his rise through the ranks, best encapsulated by his popular catchphrase, “Yeet!” Uso’s enthusiasm has endeared him to his fans, and his dynamic, high-flying athleticism in the ring has long entertained the entire wrestling world.
On January 25, “Main Event” Jey Uso got his shot in a World Heavyweight Champion fight against Gunther at Saturday Night’s Main Event. He couldn’t quite get the job done, but a second chance isn’t too far away. His card from the Main Event insert of 2025 Topps Chrome WWE is a standout, given the tie-in with his nickname.
Is 2025 the Year of Jey Uso?
Uso rebounded from his title challenge defeat, winning the Royal Rumble by eliminating juggernaut John Cena. The victory also secured Uso his first-ever Topps NOW® card, commemorating the victory with a phenomenal photo of Uso pointing toward WrestleMania.
As Uso stands on the verge of a World Title, his 2025 Topps Chrome WWE cards are there to chase. At writing, the top sale of a Jey Uso is currently $1,043.37 for his FrozenFractor -2/0, which sold on March 1, 2025. His 2025 Topps Chrome WWE cards jump out of the hand. Could they jump into the history books if he leaves WrestleMania 41 a champion?
While wrestling collectors around the world wait to see if Jey Uso can seize his moment at WrestleMania 41, his cards remain part of the recently announced 2025 Topps Championship Buyback Program. It’s rematch whose outcome will have a ripple effect throughout the WWE landscape: Uso vs. Gunther. Who you got?
