  • Jacob Fatu crashed Adam Pearce’s in-ring confrontation with Roman Reigns on Raw, brawled with The Usos and then demanded Tribal Combat, which Reigns immediately accepted.
  • The challenge came after Jey Uso tried a chair shot, Fatu dropped both Usos, and Reigns joined the fight before The Bloodline briefly overwhelmed Fatu.
  • WWE had already positioned the match for May 31 at Clash in Italy, where Reigns is set to defend the WWE World Championship against Fatu.
