In a jaw-dropping kickoff to WWE Crown Jewel 2024, Solo Sikoa stunned fans worldwide by pinning none other than Roman Reigns himself. That’s right, folks – in the six-man showdown, the New Bloodline emerged victorious over the Original Bloodline, in a match overflowing with drama, tension, and plenty of “what just happened?” moments.
The Family Feud
The Usos were back together in the ring for the first time in over a year, standing alongside Roman, “The Original Tribal Chief,” against the New Bloodline led by Sikoa. But let’s just say, family therapy might be in order! Early on, Reigns tried to tag himself in to face Sikoa, only for Jey Uso to brush him off, opting to tag Jimmy Uso instead. Ah, family dynamics in the wrestling ring – never a dull moment.
Chaos in the Ring and a Shock Pinfall
Once Reigns finally got his hands on Sikoa, things escalated fast. The referee took an accidental hit, opening the door for Jacob Fatu to make an illegal appearance, taking out Reigns with a spectacular moonsault. By the time the ref recovered, Sikoa had already delivered not one, but two Spikes, stunning Reigns for the pin. With this win, Sikoa joins the exclusive club of superstars to pin Reigns in the past four years, alongside Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes.
Sami Zayn’s “Save” and a Sudden Betrayal
In classic WWE style, the post-match drama was just getting started. Sikoa’s crew had Jey cornered with a steel chair, setting the stage for a savage post-match assault – until Sami Zayn’s music hit. Charging to the ring, Zayn appeared ready to save Jey or maybe even acknowledge Sikoa. Instead, he turned the tables, hitting Sikoa with an exploder suplex. Just when it looked like the Originals had Sikoa where they wanted him, a miscommunication between Zayn and Reigns led to an unexpected collision, letting Sikoa slip out with his New Bloodline, leaving the Originals to argue over what just went down.
One thing’s for sure: WWE Crown Jewel 2024 has officially redefined family drama, Bloodline-style.
