As it turned out, Roman made his divine entrance amidst of a vocal crowd last night. They were ready to have Sami sneak through and unleash his fury on Reigns. After cutting his methodical promo, catastrophe struck the champ from behind. So being said, a hoodied man who later got revealed as Sami, jumped over The Tribal Chief from behind.
Greenville went nuts as soon as that happened. After having a slight fightback, Roman again got plundered with a picture-perfect spear from the Syrian wrestler. However, backup arrived real soon for the former Honorary Uce. Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa did the dirty work for their Tribal Chief and took Zayn out.
No matter what, before getting ambushed from behind, Sami Zayn threw a challenge. He said, till now, he didn’t wanted anything from Roman until now. In turn, he’s now coming after Reigns and his championship. Once The Bloodline regained control over Sami, The Head of the Table agreed for the challenge.
