WWE 'Raw': Roman Reigns gets challenge from Jacob Fatu

April 21 (UPI) -- Newly crowned World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns was confronted by Jacob Fatu on the first WWE Raw following WrestleMania 42.

Reigns, who defeated CM Punk in a grueling match in the main event of WrestleMania 42 on Sunday, closed out the show on Monday by re-forming The Bloodline with his cousins Jimmy and Jey Uso.

The Usos re-committed themselves to teaming up with Reigns when Fatu's music, much to the Bloodline's surprise. Fatu is also a cousin of Reigns.

"I don't want that title. I need that title," Fatu, who is known as the Samoan Werewolf, said.

"To be clear. I'm not out here to be Tribal Chief. But I need that the Tribal Chief has. I need the shoe deal, I need the private jets, I need that rolex, I need more vehicles, I need a bigger house, I need to put my children in better schools and I'll do anything for my family. Even if I gotta go through you!" a hyped-up Fatu exclaimed, before stating that he wants to face Reigns at Backlash on May 9.

Reigns questioned if Fatu could handle being champion and gave his cousin a week to think the challenge over.

Also on Raw, Punk addressed fans after losing the World Heavyweight Championship to Reigns.

Punk, who started his speech by giving credit to backstage workers at WWE, explained how he was sill in good sprits despite the big loss and that he wasn't going anywhere.

Punk was then confronted by a battered and bruised Cody Rhodes, the Undisputed WWE Champion who narrowly defeat Randy Orton at WrestleMania 42. Rhodes had a visibly bruised eye from his battle with The Viper.

Rhodes explained how despite keeping his title he felt like the loser due to his injuries and remarked how shocked he was at Punk's positive demeanor.

Punk encouraged his friend to keep fighting and keep defending the title before hinting that perhaps he would like to pursue the Undisputed WWE Championship.

"Just say when," Rhodes said while holding up the title as Punk exited the arena.
