Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns heads into the 2023 WWE Royal Rumble under pressure. The tribal leader recently made an important decision regarding the honorary Uce Sami Zayn ahead of the event.
Last night, Zayn appeared in hiding on SmackDown after Roman Reigns specifically asked him not to appear on the show. At the end of the night, The Honorary Uce tried to help Solo Sikoa during a fight against Kevin Owens.
However, miscommunication between Zayn and Sikoa allowed the Prizefighter to gain the upper hand. During the WWE Royal Rumble kickoff show, The Bloodline wanted answers from Sami Zayn.
During the segment, Jey Uso explained to the tribal leader why Zayn was on SmackDown. Before the segment ended, Roman Reigns made a huge decision that The Honorary Uce would be around him all night.
This may mean that Sami Zayn will not participate in the men’s Royal Rumble match. It will be interesting to see what role the Honorary Uce will play when the Tribal Chief defends his undisputed WWE Universal Title against the Prizefighter.
Do you think Roman Reigns will turn on Sami Zayn by the end of the night? Sound off in the comments section below.
