On Monday night, WWE celebrated the 30th anniversary of their signature event in Philadelphia, and The Bloodline quickly made their way to the ring so Roman Reigns could oversee The Trial of Sami Zayn. In his capacity as the prosecution’s attorney, Paul Heyman played a video of supposed slights by Zayn towards Reigns and the rest of the team, such as waving a “for life” sign during the Survivor Series WarGames and lightly brushing over Reigns’ shoulder.

Roman Reigns had enough evidence to send Solo Sikoa after Sami Zayn, but in a stunning turn of events, Jey Uso, a steadfast skeptic of Sami Zayn, stopped him. Then Uso displayed a video in support of all the instances in which Zayn has aided The Bloodline.

Roman Reigns, who appeared irritated by the entire situation, declared Zayn “not guilty…for now” before informing him that he shouldn’t see him until the Royal Rumble and that there would be a “final test” of his allegiance then.

The Undisputed WWE Universal Championship will be up for grabs when Reigns faces Kevin Owens at the Royal Rumble. Sami Zayn’s challenge may be to assist his Tribal Chief in keeping his gold, or he may be challenged to win the Royal Rumble so that Reigns seems to have an easy night at WrestleMania 39. At Royal Rumble, it will be important to know the status of whether Sami Zayn will be part of the Bloodline or not.

Zayn has been giving his career best work. So, if this happens The Tribal Chief is just a Helluva kick away to lose his WWE Universal Championship at WWE Royal Rumble.

At Raw is XXX the whole WWE universe could see how much Zayn meant to The Usos, especially Jey Uso as he was the one who mistrusted him the most. But he came up with the defense for Zayn. This showed how much his hate has changed into respect for The Honorary Uce. There is also a high chance that Zayn becomes the reason for bringing bad blood between Roman Reigns and The Usos resulting in a fight between the family members and Sami Zayn becoming the new “Tribal Chief”.

Even though these are all speculations it would be interesting to see what might really happen and whether Zayn is really the person he tries to be. If any of the above happens then it is for sure that Zayn planned it all along to prove that he is also, a championship material.
