The main event of WWE Survivor Series was the Men’s WarGames match. It was a 5-on-5 double ring surrounded by a steel cage with the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns leading The Bloodline’s Solo Sikoa, The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) and Sami Zayn into battle against The Brawling Brutes team of Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Kevin Owens, Ridge Holland & Butch.
In the final moments of the match, Zayn proved his loyalty to The Bloodline by stopping the referee’s count while Owens had Reigns pinned. Zayn also hit Owens with a low blow and Helluva Kick leading to Jey Uso hitting a top rope Uso Splash on Owens for the pinfall win. After the match, Zayn was hugged by Reigns and Jey, who was reluctant to accept Zayn in the group since he was not a blood relative of the four other wrestlers in the group.
As the report from Fightful continued, it was noted that those that Fightful spoke to didn’t believe that there will be any heat between Reigns and Owens because it was something that just happened during a big match. Others within WWE, including talent, believe that Reigns and Owens should be able to coexist moving forward.
Lastly, Reigns was originally scheduled to appear at the post-Survivor Series press conference that aired on WWE’s Youtube channel after the show. However, he did not make an appearance while Paul Heyman and Sami Zayn were there to represent The Bloodline and talk to the media.
NOTE: We have an update on this story that was posted late Monday night nothing that there is apparently “no lingering issue” following what happened between Reigns and Owens.
