A new report about Roman Reigns' opponent for WWE Elimination Chamber has come to light. The Bloodline leader reportedly looks set to face fellow stable member Sami Zayn in the latter's hometown of Montreal, Canada.
Sami Zayn's storyline with The Bloodline is currently one of the hottest acts in professional wrestling. The Tribal Chief teased turning on Zayn last week after the Honorary Uce cost them the tag team match against Kevin Owens and John Cena.
However, Reigns later apologized to Sami and gave him a chance to redeem himself by putting him in a match against KO. The two former best friends will collide tonight on the blue brand.
While Roman and Sami seem to be on the same page for now, according to Xero News, the duo could lock horns in the near future. The news source stated that a title match between the two is "100% locked" for Elimination Chamber. However, it's still unclear if the match will be for both world titles or just the Universal Championship, as lately, there have been reports of Roman Reigns being stripped of the WWE Championship.
