Roman Reigns scores another win over Sami Zayn
Mar 6, 2023
Sami Zayn once again failed to defeat Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
The Underdog from the Underground challenged Reigns for the belts at Toronto's Coca-Cola Coliseum on Saturday, March 4. The match was similar to their pay-per-view encounter at Elimination Chamber but this time Reigns decked Zayn with a Low Blow before the champion followed up with a Spear for the victory, according to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer.
Zayn still ended the night standing tall, taking out Reigns following the contest to send the fans home happy. Zayn also cut a post-match promo for those in attendance.
The main event of the Toronto house show was originally scheduled to be Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens vs. Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa but the match was changed as Zayn and Owens have yet to reunite on TV and to improve ticket sales.
As mentioned, Reigns and Zayn previously faced off for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title at Elimination Chamber. Reigns won that match after Zayn accidentally speared Jey Uso, which allowed Reigns to hit a Spear of his own for the victory. Zayn was previously in The Bloodline but turned on Reigns at the Royal Rumble in January.
