We now know who will face Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Championship at this month’s Royal Rumble premium live event!
While the Bloodline kicked off WWE SmackDown in a similar hostile takeover fashion to their opening of WWE Raw, this time they were joined by the Tribal Chief.
Making his grand entrance, Roman Reigns joined the Bloodline already in the ring and shared with the crowd that they would be hearing from Sami Zayn.
After Zayn hyped up the crowd, Reigns began to question him including asking him quite ferociously if he sought to be the Tribal Chief.
Luckily for Sami however, the questioning was interrupted by Kevin Owens who noted that Roman didn’t have a Sami Zayn problem: he has a Kevin Owens problem!
Challenging Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Championship at Royal Rumble, Roman accepted the challenge to set up the major title bout for Royal Rumble.
Elsewhere on tonight’s show, the Usos are set to put their WWE Undisputed Tag Team championships on the line as they take on Sheamus and Drew McIntyre.
Also, in what should be an exciting matchup, Kofi Kingston is next up, taking on Santos Escobar.
