WWE star triggered after watching invasion during SmackDown

An invasion that took place on WWE SmackDown tonight has triggered a WWE star.

Dijak has been a mainstay on NXT ever since he returned to the brand several months ago. He has unleashed a vicious side of him there. However, before his return, he was part of Retribution, a faction led by Mustafa Ali. It was a massive flop, and most of the talent involved has since been released, including the leader.

Tonight on SmackDown, John Cena made an appearance, calling out anyone willing to face him. Solo Sikoa answered the challenge. While the former was fighting off Sikoa, Jimmy Uso came down to his aid.

Jey Uso showed up and attacked his brother at ringside. He was dressed up like Retribution before their identities were revealed. His look tonight seemed to trigger Dijak's memories of his Retribution days, and he voiced his opinion.

"DON’T SAY IT. NOBODY SAY IT," he wrote.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
