Why WWE Booked Roman Reigns vs Sami Zayn Rematch

One of the best storylines going on in the WWE right now is the Sami Zayn/Roman Reigns storyline. While it looked like their story would end at WWE Elimination Chamber, Zayn proclaimed the following night on RAW that they were just getting started. It now looks like Zayn will get his rematch against The Tribal Chief soon.

The March 4th live event from Coca-Cola Coliseum in Toronto, Ontario, Canada will be headlined by Sami Zayn and Roman Reigns. This match was announced this week after WWE nixed the original plan, which was to have Roman and Solo vs. Zayn and Owens.

According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, the match was canceled due to creative reasons. The feeling was that the match wouldn’t have made sense, given that Zayn and Owens are still repairing their broken friendship.

Moreover, booking Zayn in a rematch against Roman makes more sense since it would boost ticket sales. WWE moved around 600 tickets just after announcing the tag team bout.

It looks like fans in Toronto will get to witness another spectacle take place as Zayn takes on Roman Reigns. Stay tuned to Ringside News as we bring you similar stories.
