Though it came under dubious circumstances, Sami Zayn scored a pinfall over AJ Styles, the WWE Champion. The chaos at ringside saw the making of a handicap match between Styles, Owens, and Zayn at the Royal Rumble.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

It's puzzling since a triple threat match could let us see some potential cracks in Sami and Kevin's partnership. That's still possible, I suppose, but it primarily looks like a way to advance the tension between Shane McMahon and Daniel Bryan, even though it's unlikely the latter will be cleared for a match.

Priorities, I suppose.

Still, it's a big deal for Sami's main roster career. His heel turn has been nothing if not successful.
