• Heartfelt Update On What Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens Did Right After Royal Rumble 2023
Royal Rumble 2023 ended with a big angle between Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Roman Reigns & The Bloodline.
After Reigns defeated Owens to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship, he told Sami to smash Owens with a Steel Chair.
Instead of doing that, Sami hit Roman in the back with the Steel Chair and turned on him.
The Bloodline (except Jey Uso) then destroyed Sami.
According to the Wrestling Observer, Owens & Zayn went to attend ROH Legend Jay Briscoe’s funeral right after the PPV:
“There were so many people who came in from all over the country. I mean, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn flew in from the Royal Rumble. Straight there.
They were out, when did the Rumble end? Eastern time, that Rumble ended after midnight right? It ended at 12:20 [AM] Eastern, they were in San Antonio, they were in Delaware, which probably doesn’t have an international airport so you’re probably flying in there for something that started at 1.”
