Fans immediately flooded X (formerly Twitter) with reactions, with one user joking, “Virat Kohli ft. Roman Reigns”, as clips of the jaw-dropping moment went viral online.

The incredible scene came just weeks after Reigns had suffered a tough defeat to Reed in an Australian Street Fight, held in Reed’s home country. That match saw chaos unfold as Reed and Bron Breakker double-teamed Reigns, even recreating The Shield’s iconic powerbomb, which sent Reigns crashing through the announce table.
Adding to the drama, Jey Uso attempted to help his cousin during the bout but accidentally speared Reigns instead of Reed — a costly mistake that allowed Reed to deliver his devastating Tsunami finisher for the pinfall victory.
Despite being known as “The Tribal Chief”, Reigns’s dominance was tested in one of the most brutal rivalries of his career. After being sidelined for several weeks following the loss, Reigns made a fiery return on the September 29 episode of Raw, setting up a highly anticipated rematch against Reed at Crown Jewel.
While Reigns brought his trademark aggression and intensity to the showdown, Reed ultimately had the upper hand once again, proving himself as one of WWE’s fastest-rising stars. Still, it was the “cricket shot” moment that stole the spotlight — a never-seen-before spectacle that fans will be talking about for years.
