Roman Reigns has freshly won the WWE Universal Championship at WWE Summerslam. It will not be this soon that ‘The Big Dog’ would lose the WWE Universal title. He will be eyeing to establish himself as the top heel on the blue brand, now that he is allied with Paul Heyman.
With Big E, who has just begun his solo run in the company, it is too early to be in the title picture and this might be the reason he is ruled out of the match.
WWE is moving forward well with the family feud angle. This would give ‘The Big Dog’ a good direction in his career. Roman Reigns is possibly going to squash Jey Uso at Clash of Champions and going over the family is a great way to cement his heel persona.
On September 27, Roman Reigns is set to collide with Jey Uso with WWE Universal Championship on the line at WWE Clash of Champions pay-per-view, live from WWE Thunderdome at the Amway Center.
