Santino Marella Makes Surprise Appearance

Roman Reigns Wins Tribal Combat Match

Sunday’s WWE Clash in Italy event also featured Roman Reigns defeating Jacob Fatu in a Tribal Combat match to retain the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

This match featured the stipulation of the winner getting the ulafala to symbolize them being the undisputed tribal chief of the Bloodline and the loser having to both acknowledge their “tribal chief” and serve under him.

Following the match, Jey Uso placed the ulafala around Reigns’ neck. Solo Sikoa and The MFTs (Tama Tonga & Talla Tonga) were in attendance at ringside and left afterwards. Reigns and The Usos left to the back leading to Fatu following at first but then stopped and looked at Sikoa. This led to Jey telling Fatu to come with them, which he did and left with The Usos and Reigns.
