So Roman Reigns went into “WWE Raw” a bit of — as Jimmy Uso put it — delusional, considering that after what happened on Saturday Jacob Fatu could be turning as much as acknowledge his “Tribal Chief.” I need what he had been smoking before this.
Adam Pearce tried to speak him around at the highest of the show, given he got placed on his rear-end backwards trying to forestall Fatu from killing Reigns at Backlash. Reigns, as an alternative, talked Pearce around to simply letting him waltz back within the constructing in order that he could put his little cousin in check. Jey Uso opted to try to talk Fatu around, while his brother told Reigns about his delusional approach to things.
Nevertheless, Reigns turned as much as the most important event with the identical energy. He had got the official win on Saturday after cheating to survive, but he was the “Tribal Chief” and he was going to be acknowledged as that.
Fatu turned up on the entire smoke he was the last time he was death gripping Reigns to oblivion, with Jey yapping and yeeting at him to stop and think – he really wanted him to give it some thought – to no avail. He finally stepped in front of Fatu because that was only a solid plan of motion, got headbutted for the solid plan of motion it was, and Jimmy got dropped as well.
Within the ring, Reigns still thought he held the entire cards. Fatu reminded him he didn’t, taking all Reigns could offer and still getting the higher of him. He put him through the announcer’s table, did an entire lot more Tongan Death Gripping, put Pearce on his buttocks all once again, after which returned a bit of bit later to smash his own buttocks through Reigns, the Usos checking on him, and the barricade.
Outside of not losing the title to him, Reigns has put the “Samoan Werewolf” over the moon in recent weeks. And it’s fitting too, with Fatu being certainly one of, if not the, most enjoyable talents on the roster without delay. Not many individuals get the higher of Reigns one week, let alone every week they’ve interacted, and sure he lost the title match but even after that he got his heat back after which some.
Thoroughly having fun with the entire program because it has gone, though it might be nice to see the potential of Fatu realized and legitimized with a win down the road.
