The Trial of the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns kicked off tonight’s episode of WWE SmackDown from Madison Square Garden.
Reigns said that The Usos don’t have the authority to put him on trial because they aren’t the Tribal Chief. Jimmy and Jey showed a video package that showed Roman trying to manipulate his cousins over the years. Roman said that the person in the video is not who he is but it’s who he was forced to be and he didn’t want to do all of that but he did it for Jimmy, Jey, and Solo.
Roman said that he doesn’t need the money or the power anymore in his life and he’s done. Roman kneeled down in front of Jey but it was swerve because he nailed him with a low blow. Jimmy attacked Roman but Solo broke it up and attacked him. Solo grabbed the lei that Roman wears around the neck and teased putting it on but he and Roman ultimately worked together to take out Jimmy and Jey outside of the ring. The 30+ minute segment concluded with Roman hitting Jimmy several times with the title belt before ramming him into the steel steps while Jey looked on helplessly as he was being held back by Solo.
Jey freed himself from being tied up in the ring ropes but Solo nailed him with the Samoan Spike and Jey took a splash from Solo through the announcer’s table.
