But it looks like Zayn is a man on a mission. His real interest was not in the title in the first place but in defeating Judgment Day. He said that if Priest had cashed in the briefcase and won, another title would have been added to the faction. This would have made them even more powerful and he does not want another Bloodline. This was followed by Rollins convincing him that if he wanted to become powerful, he could still have a shot at his title and thus the match was finalized. But unfortunately, he lost and Rollins once again defended his title. After this defeat, what do you think is in store for Sami Zayn?
