5 things that will happen if Sami Zayn reunites with Roman Reigns
Sami Zayn is set to appear on SmackDown tonight to address the ongoing situation with The Bloodline. After the chaos at Crown Jewel, where he accidentally struck Roman Reigns with a Helluva Kick, an electrifying face-off is expected tonight on the show. This could eventually lead to a full-fledged reunion of the OG Bloodline with Zayn in the mix.
However, the former Intercontinental Champion reuniting with Reigns and The Usos can also lead to massive repercussions, which have the potential to send shockwaves across the roster. His arrival in the Bloodline saga could have a domino effect on several other things, whether it be the return of a WWE legend or a massive feud with a former champion.
Let's discuss five things that will happen if Sami Zayn reunites with Roman Reigns:
#5. Kevin Owens would be pissed off
Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn fought side by side to dismantle The Bloodline last year amid a massive rivalry with the faction. The two best friends went on to headline Night One of WrestleMania 39 to dethrone The Usos and win the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship with the hope of never returning to The Bloodline saga.
However, Zayn injecting himself into the same mess and his reunion with Roman Reigns would make The Prizefighter furious. Cody Rhodes aligning with The OTC at Bad Blood already enraged Owens and his best friend doing the same is certain to make his blood boil. As a result, KO might turn his back on Sami Zayn, unleashing a ruthless attack on the latter.
Kevin Owens could confront the former Intercontinental Champion tonight on SmackDown following the segment involving The Bloodline and might declare the end of their friendship. Also, there are chances that Nick Aldis could ban him from the show tonight to avoid a catastrophe.
#4. Sami Zayn might get drafted to SmackDown
Sami Zayn has been a Monday Night RAW star for over a year. However, his return to the Bloodline saga could signal the end of his tenure on the red brand for a while. With Roman Reigns and The Usos being on SmackDown, WWE might also move the Canadian star to Friday nights to keep the OG Bloodline on the same show.
WWE could have a potential trade between Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis in regard to this move. Both General Managers could negotiate a deal to swap one star from SmackDown to RAW. Considering the current landscape of WWE, a trade of this magnitude could be a huge shift for both brands.
Moreover, this angle will not only maintain the integrity of the WWE Draft but also be beneficial for a wide pool of superstars who are seeking a new direction in WWE.
#3. Bloodline WarGames Match could be made official for Survivor Series
Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa have been on a collision course for months. There have been rumors that this family drama could eventually lead to a Men's WarGames Match at this year's Survivor Series. The OG Bloodline is currently short of a member who was apparently holding back WWE from making this match official.
However, Sami Zayn's potential reunion with The OTC and The Usos tonight will complete the much-anticipated resurgence of the OG Bloodline. Therefore, The Honorary Uce's involvement could lead to WWE making the Bloodline WarGames match official for the Survivor Series PLE. Both factions can embark on a full-fledged war from here on.
Moreover, with the arrival of Zayn, Roman Reigns can fight Solo Sikoa's Bloodline on equal terms from here on, unraveling a new chapter within the ongoing family drama.
#2. Future showdown with Kevin Owens
Kevin Owens will likely be furious with Sami Zayn once he reunites with Roman Reigns and the OG Bloodline, as discussed above. One of the biggest things Sami's reunion could lead to is a future showdown with The Prizefighter. Both superstars are likely to cross paths down the line, leading to another feud between the two best friends.
Zayn and Owens have clashed numerous times in the past. However, a new chapter in their rivalry could unfold, which has the potential to deliver some jaw-dropping moments under the Triple H-led regime. In fact, WWE may even book a singles match between the two superstars for WrestleMania 41 next year, given the rich history between them.
Furthermore, Sami Zayn could be a heroic babyface while Kevin Owens could be the wicked heel, similar to their early main roster dynamics in WWE. This setup could provide a fitting closure to their longstanding rivalry.
#1. Paul Heyman's return might become imminent
Paul Heyman has been away from WWE television since June this year, after suffering a vicious attack at the hands of Solo Sikoa and his faction. However, Sami Zayn's inclusion in the Bloodline saga will seemingly lead to the veteran's return. It is because Heyman will be the last missing piece to complete the OG Bloodline even after Zayn's return.
The 59-year-old was the key figure that drove Roman Reigns' faction toward its success. Therefore, he is likely to make his way back to WWE to join the stable once again, as the company might not keep him off television for long. With Paul Heyman back in the fray, the OG Bloodline could once again dominate the landscape.
Besides, there have been instances when Roman Reigns was seen feeling the absence of his Wiseman, making it evident that Heyman's return is imminent. Sami Zayn's homecoming could be the catalyst for the Hall of Famer's highly anticipated comeback.
