Roman Reigns’ challenger for the WWE World Heavyweight title at SummerSlam will be none other than his former Shield partner, Seth Rollins.
In the main event segment of the show, Rollins interrupted the champion and the two went down memory lane, with Rollins reminding Roman over the past wins against him.
Rollins mentioned WrestleMania 31, cashing his Money in the Bank and pinning Roman for the title, sacrificing himself so Cody could win the title at WrestleMania 40, pinning him at WrestleMania 41 and stealing Paul Heyman from him, and not the mention breaking up The Shield.
Reigns told Rollins that at SummerSlam, in front of his family, he will beat him and they will close the door on The Shield forever.
The last match between the two was in 2022 at the Royal Rumble for the WWE Universal title. On that night, Rollins beat Reigns by disqualification.
