Royce Keys is back on WWE television. Keys made a surprise return during the closing segment of Monday’s RAW at the Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa, Ontario, emerging alongside OTM’s Bronco Nima and Lucien Price.
The attack went down during a match pitting The Usos against Solo Sikoa and LA Knight. When the action spilled to the floor, Keys appeared and sent both Jey Uso and Sikoa crashing onto the announce table.
Nima and Price then hit the ring and went after Knight and Jimmy Uso. Nima stomped on Knight while Price leveled Jimmy. OTM shifted their focus to Knight as Keys planted Jimmy with an Ultimate Spinebuster.
To cap the assault, OTM hurled Jimmy onto the announce table and destroyed it, while Keys held Jey in place and forced him to watch his brother get taken apart.
The return came just three weeks after Jacob Fatu defeated Keys in a Street Fight on the August 3 RAW. Fatu continued the attack after the match, and Keys was stretchered out of the building. On the following week’s show, Michael Cole reported that Keys had suffered a larynx contusion and a cervical strain, putting him on the shelf indefinitely.
Before the injury, Keys had been aligned with Sikoa and Knight. The trio defeated Fatu and The Usos at SummerSlam on August 1, where Knight hit a BFT on Jey Uso to pick up the win.
