Sami Zayn is officially official.
While the real ones know that Sami Zayn has always been part of the Bloodline, things were made official on the September 23 episode of WWE SmackDown when he was named an Honorary Uce He got a t-shirt and everything to prove it.
After Solo Sikoa acknowledged his Tribal Chief, the Bloodline (Roman Reigns, Jimmy & Jey Uso, & Sikoa) were ready to leave the ring when Sami took the mic and also wanted to acknowledge his tribal chief. Roman, seemingly displeased at first, asked Sami to take off his Bloodline shirt. Sami was confused, leading to Jey ripping the shirt off.
Roman said Sami would never wear that Bloodline shirt again, because he got him a new "Honorary Uce" shirt. Sami put his new shirt on and celebrated with his new family members, except for Jey, who didn't look happy. Sami officially acknowledged his Tribal Chief and the two embraced.
