WWE has released a new t-shirt design featuring top superstar Sami Zayn. Goodies suggest that the honorary youth may reunite with his longtime rival/friend Kevin Owens. Zayn has been one of WWE’s hottest acts since joining The Bloodline a few months ago. The former Intercontinental His Champion turned face at the Royal Rumble and was trending all weekend after undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman hit Reigns with a chair. With this decision, the tribal chief and the rest of the group, with the exception of Jay Uso, violently defeated Zayn, ending the show as the former Intercontinental Champion’s latest merchandise drop. The new T-shirt design features Zayn’s name tape taped over “Uce”, much like Kevin Owens’ marquee T-shirt has his initials “KO” taped to the front.

Sami Zayn’s heroic actions at the Royal Rumble will most likely put him on a collision course with Roman Reigns. He will defend his title against Zayn at the Premium Live Event Elimination Chamber in Montreal, Quebec. However, WWE has yet to confirm the matchup and there have been no updates regarding Zayn or Kevin Owens since Bloodline fell unconscious to end the Rumble. It is unknown if there are any. He posted a post on Instagram that appeared to claim he left The Bloodline to move forward.

However, Sami Zayn attacked Roman Reigns and hit him with a chair. Zayn was then systematically destroyed by his lineage, except for Jay Uso, who left the scene and wanted no part of the carnage. In the latest Wrestling Observer Daily He update, Dave Meltzer announced that Roman Reigns vs. Sami Zane is “finalizing as much as possible” at a premium live event. WrestleMania already has Cody Rhodes in the main event. Of course, this is WWE and everything is subject to change. There were strong rumors that the match would take place at a live event on February 18, with the Elimination Chamber taking place at the Bell Center in Zayn’s hometown of Quebec, Canada. You have to wait for it to be done.

WWE’s next premium live event takes place in Quebec on February 18th. You never know what might happen as the road to WrestleMania heats up. It turns out WWE has big plans for the final pay-per-view before WrestleMania 39. Sami Zayn has become one of WWE’s biggest stars in the past year thanks to his organic growth from The Bloodline storyline. Following what happened at the Royal Rumble event, it looks like Zayn will face off against Roman Reigns in the WWE Elimination Chamber, with Sami Zayn’s story arc on The Bloodline unfolding over the course of several months, and in recent memory. It ended up being one of the most intricate and brilliantly crafted story arcs out there. After months of development, we’ve arrived at the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. After retaining the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Kevin Owens at an event, Roman Reigns ordered Sami Zayn to finish off Kevin Owens.
