While it's unclear what Zayn meant by the caption. It might be that by "lost the battle" was referring to his unceremonious ouster from The Bloodline after a beatdown at 2023 Royal Rumble. "Won the war' might be a dig at the current state of The Bloodline which is on the verge of breaking apart after Jimmy Uso's attack on Reigns at Night of Champions 2023. Notably, Jimmy superkicked The Tribal Chief twice during the match between Reigns-Sikoa and Owens-Zayn. Jimmy's actions had eventually helped Zayn-Owens grab the win in the high stake encounter.

Interestingly, Zayn has been sowing the seeds of betrayal in the minds of The Usos for quite sometime. He has been provoking The Usos to part ways from Reigns. With Jimmy's attack on Reigns, Zayn might have felt sweet revenge and a sense of accomplishment in his ambitions, hence the term " won the war".

After Jimmy's sensational attack on Reigns on Saturday night, there are has been no official word from The Tribal Chief about what action he might take against The Usos. Fans are speculating a huge crackdown on The Usos from Reigns in the wake of Jimmy's betrayal on Saturday.

Paul Heyman's latest tweet: "Your Tribal Chief, Solo and I are jetting back home from #WWENOC .We will talk about this in detail Friday on #SmackDown," has added to the suspense on what's in store for The Usos.

Fans are awaiting for the upcoming Friday night SmackDown episode to learn what path The Bloodline will take after Saturday's senstional incident.
