Despite winning WWE's first main roster WarGames match, Roman Reigns wasn't too pleased upon returning backstage after the match. First reported by Fightful Select, Roman Reigns was visibly upset after the Survivor Series main event, specifically about a spot within the match. It was rumored that Reigns took exception to what he perceived as an unplanned spot between he and Kevin Owens. ## As he walked backstage, he mentioned possibly having a ruptured ear drum, and wanted the spot to go as originally planned. The exclamation was said to have been "expletive filled" and it was clear to everyone that Reigns wasn't happy. ## Earlier this week, Dave Meltzer confirmed the hard-hitting slap and that it had left noticeable bruising on the Tribal Chief. There was talk of a possible broken eardrum, although, this wasn't confirmed, came from a slap by Owens, Reigns was upset, but 20 minutes later it had all blown over so there is no lingering issue regarding it. ## Now, on the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Metzer wrote the following: ## “Reigns was furious and backstage after went off on Owens, with swearing and such. According to numerous sources, Reigns was mad both because of the injury but also because it wasn’t a spot he had known about and felt it didn’t make sense to do it in the match. “Some said it happened, Reigns was obviously furious, but it largely blew over by 20 minutes later. Others said that wasn’t accurate in the sense it wasn’t completely blown over, that Reigns was upset, but it’s not like they are changing any plans in booking or he won’t work with Owens or there will be any punishment or anything like that.” ## “It fell into the category of s**t that happens but the idea was that after Zayn got over doing what was not supposed to be a long-term gimmick, that Reigns pretty much picked Owens and Zayn personally to work a long program with and the idea is he could have picked any two people on the roster to elevate and those were the ones he picked. ## “Zayn got that spot because of how well the crowd took to him in the short-term program and Owens made sense with their history and because he can talk and is a great performer. But there was the idea he didn’t have to pick him or either of them and did, and was mad because something happened that he felt with his character should not have happened, and he also got hurt. ## “But as noted it’s not like he was mad to the point of wanting the plans in place to change.” ## H/T: WrestleTalk ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
