WWE World Heavyweight Champion “The OTC” Roman Reigns defeated “The Samoan Werewolf” Jacob Fatu in Tribal Combat to retain his title at yesterday’s 2026 WWE Clash in Italy premium live event (PLE). After the match, Reigns was interviewed by Cathy Kelley during the post-show. When asked what his victory over Fatu meant to him, Reigns had some strong words and issued a warning to the locker room.
This is what Roman Reigns said, “I don’t think it matters what it means for me. What it means for everybody else, huh? I can hear the chatter. LA Knight. Royce Keys. And this goes for any of you chumps back there. You want to run your mouth about the Tribal Chief? You want to run your mouth about my family? You terrified about this Bloodline, ain’t you? You see what’s happening behind me. I been a general. I been had an army. I’m trying to do it the right way. I’m trying to shine a light on my legacy in a positive manner, but you all are forcing my hand. Keep on trying me. I’ll run it all forever.”
Reigns then shoved the camera away and walked off, followed by The Usos and a disappointed Jacob Fatu. Fatu now must serve Reigns and join The Bloodline due to his loss. For now, it seems that Fatu is complying with The Bloodline after this defeat.
Additionally, after the match, as he made his way to the back, Reigns could be heard referring to the Undisputed WWE Champion, Cody Rhodes. During his exit, Reigns said, “Now they know who the Head of the Table is. Who is the captain of the ship? QB1, **** that noise. It’s the Tribal Chief.”
