There have been many people that have challenged Roman Reigns in the past. From Brock Lesnar to Drew McIntyre, no one stood a chance at dethroning the greatest champion of the modern generation. But after his gruesome betrayal at Royal Rumble 2023, it seems like Sami Zayn could finally do it. Hurting the Tribal Chief where it hurts, his Bloodline, Zayn has given hope to the audience that a major change is on the way.

But as we all know by now, everyone who faces the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion falls down. But every week, Zayn has been building up hype for his potential dethroning. In addition to that, Cody Rhodes, the winner of the Royal Rumble 2023, is also in contention to beating Reigns if Zayn doesn’t come out as the victor.

In a TikTok video, Roman Reigns replays the segment between Sami Zayn and Cody Rhodes on this past Monday Night Raw. Unflinchingly he says in the video, “If you gotta have a pep rally to convince each other that you can beat me, you don’t stand a chance. I’ll see you in Montreal.” He even captioned his tweet containing the video, “Everybody thinks they’re the guy until they meet THE GUY!!

As always, The Tribal Chief is overtly confident about his imminent victory. But this time it isn’t just about winning and retaining his titles, it’s about family. With the Elimination Chamber taking place in Montreal, Reigns hopes to send a message to everyone about messing with his family. Zayn’s betrayal was such a major event for his Bloodline that the cracks are starting to form.

Could we see Reigns finally step down as the champion? Or will Reigns put on a bloody show in front of Zayn’s family to further humiliate Zayn for betraying the Bloodline? Only time will tell.

But it is pretty evident that Reigns verbally took down both Rhodes and Zayn with just one sentence and not even being in the ring with them. But even if the Canadian fails to capture the title, Rhodes has his eyes set on the title, and the prodigal son will make sure to ‘finish his story’ of being the world champion in 2023.
