Sami Zayn smashes Roman Reigns with a steel chair: WWE Royal Rumble 2023 highlights

One of the best face turns in 2023!

that POP

Imagine a Royal Rumble PPV being remembered for a post main event segment. Just shows how good they booked that thing. Man the more I revisit this storyline the more I wish Sami had won at Montreal. Yes for many he might not be a world champion but the work he did from Knoxville to this segment for making that storyline what it was, that work itself deserved it and he rightly organically earned it. I don’t blame WWE going the way they wanted too but I wish he got his rightful moment. I don’t think he’ll ever win the big one but even if he does he won’t be as over as he was here. It would have been a Mick foley winning the title moment. Ironically he resembles a lot like Mick himself when it comes to connecting with the audience on an emotional level. Wish he gets the rightful prize.

Man, nothing top that yet,great show!!!

And this still has left me Speechless a year later.. I still remember like it was yesterday.. on one TV i had the Rolex 24 at Daytona and the other i had the rumble.. all of my buddies were texting each other and Enjoying the show.. and then. When it happened.. holy cow. I just stood there On the TV speechless after Sami Took that Chair and Hit roman in the Back.. good times..

That sustained pop just wow

Sami needs to win the rumble. If not 2024, it's never going to happen.

That pop!!!

When is this man going to be champion ffs

Chef Triple H's kiss! 5 ⭐ segment

Still get goosebumps a year later

Man. What’s wrong with you I give you my hole life you thinks it’s a. Game!!!!!!!!

This is cinema, a masterpiece! Someday this will go down as one the greatest moment in WWE history.

That pop is everything 😭🤞🏽

This is still THE MOMENT of wrestling 2023. The chair shot heard around the world.

I think Sami thought man Roman’s breath is kicking 🤢 when he turned away so fast and took a deep breath

To me this is top 3 biggest pop i ever heard in wwe history... was so loud !!!

These 72 seconds just might be some of the most captivating storytelling this company has produced in at least a decade. I still get chills rewatching this

This is hand down the Pro Wrestling Moment of the Year 2023....

only pop ive heard louder than that was stone cold helping mankind win the belt, and my dads farts

When Sami Zayn hit Roman Reigns with the chair my mouth dropped 😮

This was still the moment of the year for me!🎉

It's deja vu for Roman Reigns all over again!

Oh my God

🐐

Blew the roof off that building in REAL LIFE

WHEN THE BLOODLINE WAS AT ITS PEAK!!!!

In my opinion since Sami was gonna get beat down he should’ve just kept hitting Roman until the usos attacked him

That crowd pop was amazing

The Sami vs Roman Story was perfection.

The guy in the green shirt is front row here... and he's also front row for Wrestlemania a few months later during Kevin/Zayn vs Usos. Useless information.

A year later, it's still the best finish in wrestling history

WWE management got the wrong idea here.
They thought Roman Reigns made Sami Zayn main event when it was Sami Zayn keeping Roman main event

What a year - thank you

Sami vs Roman was better than the Cody vs Roman saga

Still the biggest pop of 2023. Including CM Punk's return.

Subtle thing that could have been great, at 0.21 Jimmy says “Hit him, do it”. It should have been Jey who said it so we could have questioned was he talking about KO or Roman.

Top 5 moments of the history of WWE

Still makes my hair stand on end

This story line is incredible deserves an award. Absolute masterpiece

I went there live to the rumble and when it happened the crowd was so loud my ears were ringing all night after the show

That reaction is INSANE!!

THE FIRST POP OF 2023 heard around the world!

i love that pop so much lol

Acknowledge Sami, tribal chief

There's always a plan B

Sami should've beaten Roman. End of.
