As we bid farewell to 2023, it’s clear that Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn played pivotal roles in defining WWE’s pinnacle moments. The start of WWE Raw 30 marked a significant event: The Bloodline’s Trial of Sami Zayn.
Gathered around a table, The Bloodline, with Roman Reigns at the forefront, conducted a tribal court to evaluate Sami Zayn’s standing within the group. Paul Heyman, taking on the role of the prosecution, presented a compelling case, highlighting instances where Sami fell short of supporting the stable—such as his failure to assist Jey Uso against Kevin Owens last August.
As a result, WrestleOPs tweeted about the moment, declaring it the highest-viewed WWE RAW segment of 2023 was the Trial of Zayn, attracting over 2,760,000 viewers.

After Heyman passionately presented his case, Zayn found himself without a convincing defense and admitted he had no argument. This prompted Reigns to instruct Solo Sikoa to unleash a devastating blow on Sami with the Samoan Spike. However, before the strike could land, Jey Uso stepped forward to plead in defense.
