Watch: Popular faction attacks John Cena after SmackDown goes off the air

It was an eventful night for WWE fans as John Cena returned and wrestled his first match of the year on the latest episode of SmackDown.

The Cenation Leader and Kevin Owens took on Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn in a tag team affair this week. The match was full of ups and downs as The Bloodline members managed to isolate The Prizefighter in the ring, and the 16-time Champ couldn't get in the tag.

In the final moments of the exhilarating matchup, both Cena and KO landed a five-knuckle shuffle on The Tribal Chief and Zayn. John then took Roman out of the picture with an AA, and Owens hit the Stunner on Sami for the win.

However, the celebrations did not last long for KO and Cena as the Bloodline mounted an attack on them after the cameras stopped rolling.

In a recent video that surfaced online, The Usos and Sami Zayn can be seen decimating their opponents in a 3-on-2 assault.
