Cody Rhodes will defend the Undisputed WWE Championship at WWE Clash at the Castle against AJ Styles in an "I Quit" match. The two arch-enemies will square off on Saturday (June 15) at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland.

Jey Uso doesn't have a match on the card, but the WWE RAW star has been teasing fans with cryptic messages lately. Main Event Jey's latest Instagram post was a mysterious picture of a chess game. The image said:

"Make that move you're afraid of making."

Jey Uso could be contemplating returning to his evil ways, costing his friend Cody Rhodes at WWE Clash at the Castle. The 38-year-old has become a fan favorite as a babyface but could feel he was more successful on the dark side.

Jucey may be jealous of American Nightmare and the success he's achieved as the company's face. He could try to propel himself into the main event scene by interrupting the world title picture.

Cody Rhodes was behind Jey Uso's move to Monday nights after the latter fell out with The Bloodline. During the faction's glory days, he was the longest reigning tag champion with brother Jimmy as the Usos (622 days).

Jey may feel he can return to that sort of success by turning heel at WWE Clash at the Castle. He may also have a long-term vision. Uso sent fans a message suggesting his family deserved more respect, claiming they should be given their flowers while still in the game.

Jey Uso's long-term plan may be to reunite with Jimmy and bring their tag team back. They disbanded in SummerSlam 2023 after Jimmy shockingly attacked him in the main event against Roman Reigns.

The Usos fought in a singles match at WrestleMania XL, with Jey winning. His brother continued as a member of The Bloodline until post-Mania when Solo Sikoa kicked him out and replaced him with Tama Tonga.

Since then, Jimmy has been sidelined with an injury, and it's unknown when he'll return. Jey may want to reconcile with his brother and Roman Reigns and bring back the original Bloodline to take down Solo's new version.

Main Event Jey was last in action in the King of the Ring Tournament when he lost to Gunther in the semi-finals. That's been the story of his singles run on RAW. He could feel realigning with The Bloodline is his best move, and that starts with attacking Cody Rhodes at WWE Clash at the Castle.
