On this week’s RAW in Quebec, Canada, <a href="https://cynicaltimes.org/category/wrestling-news/wwe/”>WWE Superstar Sami Zayn was ambushed by The MFTs while competing against Rusev, igniting speculation about him reforming the original WWE Bloodline. Before the match could conclude, Solo Sikoa and his associates assaulted Zayn, known as the Underdog from the Underground. This attack may prompt Zayn, a former four-time Intercontinental Champion, to reunite with Jimmy and Jey Uso along with Jacob Fatu to confront this new threat.
Sami Zayn has been embroiled in a rivalry with Seth Rollins and his faction since WrestleMania 41. The tension escalated last week when Zayn traveled to Friday Night SmackDown and defeated United States Champion Solo Sikoa in front of a supportive Quebec crowd. Right after the victory, Zayn narrowly escaped before The MFTs could retaliate.
Renewed Hostilities and Rising Stakes After RAW Assault
This week on RAW, The MFTs retaliated for their prior embarrassment by attacking Zayn, returning the feud to a dangerous level. This scenario strongly hints at Zayn enlisting the help of his former allies, Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, and Jacob Fatu, to counter the combined forces of Talla Tonga, JC Mateo, Tonga Loa, and Solo Sikoa. The Usos and Fatu have not been prominent since SummerSlam 2025 when Jacob Fatu lost the United States Championship with outside interference aiding Sikoa’s escape from a steel cage match.
Recently, The Yeet Master was seen backstage during a segment with Jackie Redmond and LA Knight, suggesting that Zayn may engage with them and recruit Big Jim and Fatu from SmackDown. While this is not yet confirmed, it adds complexity to the ongoing storylines and potential alliances crossing brand lines.
Sami Zayn’s SummerSlam Victory Over Karrion Kross Highlights Resilience
At the 2025 SummerSlam held in MetLife Stadium, Sami Zayn faced Karrion Kross, who had been tormenting him for months following a loss at Night of Champions. Despite Kross‘s attempts to force Zayn to embrace a darker persona—urging him to abandon his “good guy” image and use a steel pipe during the match—Zayn remained steadfast. Demonstrating resilience, Zayn triumphed with a decisive Helluva Kick, concluding their feud undefeated.
This victory did not ease Zayn’s subsequent challenges, as he now confronts a resurgent MFTs faction, longstanding adversaries like Solo Sikoa and Tonga Loa, and emerging rivals Talla Tonga and JC Mateo. With multiple opponents across WWE’s brands, Zayn’s path remains fraught with conflict, demanding strategic alliances and toughness.
Future Implications for the WWE Bloodline and Zayn’s Role
The attack on Sami Zayn has intensified an already volatile situation, creating a potential crossroads for him and the WWE Bloodline. Should Zayn reassemble alongside Jimmy and Jey Uso and Jacob Fatu, it could signal a major shift in faction dynamics and elevate the stakes for upcoming WWE events. This reunion would position them to counter the growing threat posed by The MFTs and other rival groups, potentially reshaping the WWE landscape as storylines unfold.
