The Usos' Royal Rumble 2015 night peaked when they retained their WWE Tag Team Championships against The Miz and Damien Mizdow, slid when they watched cousin Roman Reigns win the titular bout to near-universal rejection, and took another turn for the worse after the pay-per-view, when they almost got into it with a chair-wielding fan.

Speaking to the Chad Dukes Versus the World show in 2015, The Usos claimed the confrontation went down while trying to drive away from the arena. Their account has a fan brandishing a Rumble-branded chair approaching the back of the car. Rather than looking to meet the brothers (who were travelling with Naomi) and perhaps nab an opportunistic selfie, however, this person just straight-up chairshotted the car... then legged it.

The Usos got hot. Knowing that they didn't have insurance on their rental and would have to foot the bill, they hopped out the door to look for the guy, but he was gone. "He jetted," they said. "Three lanes over, just gone."

It's a good job the chair-swinging dope was able to get away; having a couple of angry Samoans bearing down on him probably wouldn't have ended well...
