There are not enough names that Triple H has promoted for the main event since becoming the Head of Creative. It had been a constant allegation on The Cerebral Assassin that he only focused on already established stars and not on focusing on building new stars. But there are some names that he actually made top stars all by himself.
One such name is Jey Uso who is presently one of the biggest names in WWE right now. He shocked the entire world when he won the men’s Royal Rumble match earlier this month and earned the right to challenge a World Champion of his choice at WrestleMania 41. He decided to go for the World Heavyweight Champion Gunther.

Jey Uso may be over with the fans right now but not every fan wants him on the main event. Some fans still believe that he is only a mid card and nothing more than that.

Jey is also reportedly winning the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 41 which can be another shocker.
