The Rock Embraces Undisputed Tribal Chief On WWE Raw

The battle to be crowned Tribal Chief is now over in WWE after Raw’s Netflix debut and The Rock was on hand to present the Ula Fala.

The Original Bloodline group led by Roman Reigns was victorious at Survivor Series: WarGames when they beat The New Bloodline led by Solo Sikoa. That WarGames match ended when Reigns hit a Spear on his cousin Solo to pick up the win for his team.

However, that was far from the end of the story. As Solo Sikoa continued to assert his position as Tribal Chief, something had to give leading to a huge Tribal Combat match being made for the first episode of Raw on Netflix. Solo Sikoa gave Paul Heyman the task of presenting the Ula Fala to the winner of the bout, but that’s not exactly what ended up happening.

The Rock Acknowledges His Tribal Chief

A wild match between Reigns and Sikoa took place that was reminiscent of the WrestleMania 40 main event that saw plenty of interference. This time Sikoa’s Bloodline of Jacob Fatu and Tama Tonga tried to sway things for Solo Sikoa but they were chased off by Sami Zayn and Jimmy Uso.

Kevin Owens, who has never forgotten his own issues with Roman Reigns, nailed him with the Stunner before he was taken out by Cody Rhodes. Roman Reigns was able to recover enough to flatten Solo Sikoa with a spear to pick up the win.

After the bout, Paul Heyman was set to present his Tribal Chief with the Ula Fala but was stopped when The Rock emerged. The Rock took the Ula Fala from Heyman and he placed it around Reigns’ neck before the two stars embraced.

Whether or not this puts a match between Roman Reigns and The Rock somewhere down the line on hold remains to be seen.
