The stakes in the Universal title match at tonight’s SummerSlam were raised by Roman Reigns during last night’s Smackdown.
John Cena said that Smackdown will not have a Universal champion until WrestleMania in Dallas as he plans to leave with the title but Reigns wasn’t so sure about that, telling Cena that at SummerSlam, he either leaves with the Universal title or else he’s leaving WWE if he loses.
The two then shook hands and Reigns tried to give Cena the Attitude Adjustment but Cena caught him and rolled him up for a virtual three count, showing Reigns that he can beat him. Cena celebrated outside the ring and the show ended with a shocked Reigns in the ring.
