Sami Zayn would’ve loved to have dethroned Roman Reigns as Undisputed Universal Champion but is happy at the way his story with the Bloodline played out.
During his recent interaction with “Xfinity,” Zayn was asked how he felt about the way his storyline with “The Tribal Chief” ended and if he should’ve been the man to defeat Reigns.
It would have been kind of perfect — a storybook ending if I had dethroned Roman. Sure, of course. But if you look at it more, you know, 5 years from now, 10 years from now, if you look at the totality of where it all kind of lies, I think you would just see that that’s one great chapter, hopefully, in a story,” said Zayn.

“For sure, I think, unquestionably, whether it was the right or wrong decision or whatever it was, if the way it ended, there’s no question that had it gone my way, for example, that night in Montreal or at WrestleMania or something like that with Roman, unquestionably would have been a moment that would have definitely been replayed many times,” stated one-half of the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Champions.

Zayn exacted revenge on Roman Reigns at the Night of Champions Premium Live Event earlier this year, when he and Owens defeated “The Tribal Chief” and Solo Sikoa, bringing an end to his rivalry with Reigns and com
