Jacob Fatu bends the knee to acknowledge Roman Reigns.
The Clash in Italy fallout show of Monday Night Raw addressed the aftermath of the event. The show opened with Roman Reigns, who, along with the Usos, arrived and called out Jacob Fatu to acknowledge him as his Tribal Chief after the loss in the rematch.
This time around, Fatu accepted defeat and acknowledged Reigns as his Tribal Chief as Jimmy Uso sent a warning to the whole roster. On the other hand, Oba Femi and Iyo Sky won the first round of the fatal four-way matches to advance into the semi-finals of the King and Queen of the Ring tournament, respectively.
The main event of the show saw Seth Rollins defeat Bron Breakker after Bron accidentally took out Paul Heyman with a vicious spear through the barricade.
Seth Rollins eyes King of the Ring 2026 after recent win
After the win against Breakker, Rollins signaled for the title around his waist and then threw ones to the sky, a nod to ‘The OTC’ Roman Reigns, who currently holds the World Heavyweight title. A title that Rollins never lost and had to relinquish due to injury.
Rollins has expressed his intentions to regain the World Heavyweight title, and next week, he gets an opportunity to move one step closer to getting a title shot as he competes in the first round of the 2026 King of the Ring tournament match.
Seth Rollins will take on Je’Von Evans, Ricky Saints, and Talla Tonga. On the other hand, the first round match will continue in the 2026 Queen of the Ring tournament as Liv Morgan, Becky Lynch, Chelsea Green, and Alexa Bliss battled in a fatal four-way match next week.
