Austin Theory mocks Roman Reigns following WWE SmackDown; teases potential showdown
WWE Superstar Austin Theory mocked Roman Reigns in a recent social media post following the latest edition of Friday Night SmackDown. The former Money in the Bank winner has never wrestled the OTC thus far.
On the November 8 episode of the blue brand's show, Theory was expected to accompany his tag team partner on The Grayson Waller Effect to welcome The Motor City Machine Guns. However, SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis announced the show had been canceled, and the two teams would compete in a tag team match instead. Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley put forth impressive performances to beat the former WWE Tag Team Champions and maintain their unbeaten record since joining the wrestling promotion.
Austin Theory recently took to Instagram stories to share a clip of himself sitting in a car alongside Grayson Waller. With fans standing nearby, Theory did The Bloodline's 'one-finger pointing to the sky' gesture as The Aussie Icon tried to stop him. The 27-year-old was laughing while imitating The Tribal Chief.
Roman Reigns reunited with 40-year-old WWE Superstar on SmackDown
WWE Superstar Roman Reigns had a Crown Jewel to forget. He teamed up with The Usos to take on Solo Sikoa, Jacob Fatu, and Tama Tonga. In a surprising turn of events, Sikoa pinned the OTC to win the match for his team. After the contest ended, as the new Bloodline attacked the original members, Sami Zayn made his way to the squared circle.
The former WWE Intercontinental Champion attacked Sikoa and his faction to save his former stablemates. However, things did not go to plan, as he accidentally kicked Roman Reigns in the face.
On the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown, the former stablemates sorted out their differences and stood united to end the show after taking out Sikoa and his men. They are all set to take out Solo Sikoa's Bloodline at Survivor Series: WarGames later this month.
