Money in the Bank 2023 has registered in the history books as a momentous event in WWE. The main event in London saw the unthinkable when it came to the result of The Bloodline Civil War. Jey Uso shocked the world and pinned Roman Reigns after 1294 days. After the match, they were seen in a backstage interview reacting to their remarkable win while stating themselves as “The Ones.”
WWE uploaded a clip of the backstage interview with The Usos on Instagram. In the video, Jey Uso expressed his elation by saying, “Yes, sir!” thrice and Jimmy was seen clapping on their win. The former Right Hand Man then said, “Look at now, matter of fact!” He then handed over his right hand to Jimmy, asking him,“Who the real ones now?”. The Usos did their signature hand move, shook their hands and walked away.
After a long, vicious matchup between the Usos and Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa, the former Tag Team Champions secured their victory. The cleverness of The Usos was seen during the ending moments. After Solo was laid down on the announce table, Jey and Jimmy took advantage of it. The cousins attacked Roman inside the ring, and Jey finally pinned him after three years of his dominance.
This was the first pinfall loss that Roman suffered since his Tribal Chief gimmick. Reigns was pinned after 1294 days since December 2019. The upcoming episode of SmackDown will air live from Madison Square Garden. Therefore, it will be interesting to see how things shape up in The Bloodline saga. Being a special episode of SmackDown, Reigns is advertised for this show and could be seen addressing his loss at Money in the Bank.
