On the March 9, 2026 episode of WWE Raw, The Usos confronted World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk over his prior comment about burying Roman Reigns next to his late father Sika Anoa'i. Punk issued a mock apology, sparking a brawl and intensifying Bloodline tensions ahead of WrestleMania 42.
The March 9, 2026 WWE Raw featured a tense in-ring segment continuing the fallout from CM Punk's March 3 promo, where he told Reigns he would 'bury' him next to Sika Anoa'i of the Wild Samoans.
The Usos (Jimmy and Jey) demanded an apology. Punk claimed respect for Sika—less than for Afa, who aided his early career—and accused Reigns of disrespecting the family. He mocked Reigns as a 'lying, backstabbing, manipulative' figure and sarcastically apologized for Reigns treating the Usos poorly without remorse, even to Dusty Rhodes. Punk added that Reigns sends 'his two young boys' instead of showing up himself.
Jey shoved Punk, Jimmy punched him, and the Usos exited as Raw ended. WWE social media highlighted: '@CMPunk respects everyone in the @WWEUsos's family EXCEPT @WWERomanReigns!' and 'Things have turned VERY personal between @WWEUsos and @CMPunk!'
Roman Reigns returns to Raw on March 16. Punk defends the World Heavyweight Title against him at WrestleMania 42.
