10 Recent Wrestling Moments That Shook The World
8. Sami Zayn Finally Does The Right Thing
The chair shot heard around the world.
Fans knew something monumental was coming the second it became clear that Roman Reigns' Undisputed WWE Universal Championship defence against Kevin Owens was going on last on a night boasting two Royal Rumble matches.
But even those expecting another shocking development in the ongoing Sami Zayn/Bloodline saga were left losing their minds completely at the sight of The Honorary Uce finally being pushed too far by The Tribal Chief.
Overflowing with rich, glorious detail, from The Shield callback as Roman slumped to the ground, to a conflicted Jey Uso's refusal to take part in the subsequent battering of the traitor, there's a reason the thunderous noise that met this earth-shattering chair-shot has been watched and replayed millions of times already.
This was the emotional result of taking the time to actually allow a storyline and relationships to breathe on-screen. And the impressive ratings that have come with easily the most compelling storyline in the business don't lie.
Simply put, WWE won't be missing The Rock in the slightest this year. Fans have already been treated to the most electrifying tale in all of entertainment, and there's still time for more than a few more twists and turns before the 39th Show of Shows.
