10 New Directions After WWE Survivor Series 2022: WarGames

1. Goodbye, “Honorary Uce”!

Sami has officially been accepted into The Bloodline's midst following WarGames. He shed his "Honorary Uce" status by helping Jey Uso several times, then saved Roman Reigns by stopping the ref's hand from coming down for three when Kevin Owens had him pinned. That was a colossal piece of storytelling.

Post-match, Roman hugged Sami and Jey followed suit. Zayn proved his allegiance to the Bloodline cause during Saturday's main event, and he'll receive gushing praise from the group for doing so on SmackDown next week. Then, something mega will happen...

...Sami will become Roman's new "right hand man".

Of course, that spot has belonged to Jey up until now, but things change. WWE could sprinkle even more tension on a relationship that's apparently moving in the right direction by having Reigns play master manipulator. 'Right Hand Man' Sami Zayn sounds perfect.
