To close out the second hour of this week’s episode of WWE RAW, Jey Uso celebrated his World Heavyweight Championship victory with the crowd.
He wasn’t alone in the moment — Sami Zayn made his return to WWE after several weeks away, joining the new champion in the ring to share in the celebration. Zayn admitted that it was tough being sidelined during Uso’s intense feud with GUNTHER, expressing his regret for not being there but emphasizing how proud he was of Uso’s triumph at WrestleMania 41 (Night One).
As the celebration continued, Jimmy Uso also made a surprise return, reuniting with his brother and adding to the emotional close of the segment.

In his first title defense, Dominik Mysterio successfully retained the WWE Intercontinental Championship against PENTA on Monday’s episode of WWE RAW.
Just one night after capturing the title, Dominik put it on the line — and with a little help from a returning JD McDonagh, he managed to walk away still champion.
McDonagh made a surprise return, shoving Penta off the top turnbuckle and right into the waiting arms of Mysterio, who followed up with a devastating 619 and a frog splash to seal the victory over the lucha brother.
