WWE SmackDown video highlights: Roman Reigns apologizes to Sami Zayn

On last night’s SmackDown, Roman Reigns both berated and later apologized to Sami Zayn.

Reigns was upset with Zayn following their loss to Kevin Owens & John Cena last week. Reigns refused to take responsibility for the loss, instead blaming it on Zayn. Reigns was upset that Zayn failed to win after calling his shot, and he accused Zayn of wanting to be the Tribal Chief. They were then interrupted by Kevin Owens, who challenged Reigns to an Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match at the Royal Rumble. Reigns accepted the challenge and it was made official.

Zayn tried to apologize to Reigns later in the night, but Reigns refused to accept his apology. Instead, Reigns apologized to Zayn. Reigns said he shouldn’t have talked to Zayn like he did. Reigns admitted that he was mad at Owens and was taking it out on Zayn.

Paul Heyman then informed Zayn that he’ll get a chance to redeem himself by facing Owens on SmackDown next Friday. Zayn vowed to take care of their Kevin Owens problem.
