Former Undisputed WWE champion Roman Reigns returned to SummerSlam and interfered in the Bloodline Rules match main event, taking out Solo Sikoa and ending his quest to become champion.
Following interferences by Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, Jacob Fatu, Kevin Owens, and Randy Orton, Reigns’ new theme song kicked in and the Cleveland crowd exploded.
Wearing a new shirt with the OTC letters on it – Original Tribal Chief – Reigns took his time to walk down the aisle but ran the last part and then once he hit the ring, he delivered the Superman punch on Solo. The crowd, at this point, was already losing it, and a few seconds later, Reigns hit a big spear on his cousin.
A confused Cody Rhodes looked on as Reigns stared at him before leaving the ring. Rhodes then hit a Cross Rhodes to Sikoa and pinned him to retain the title.
Reigns had been off WWE television since night two of WrestleMania XL.
