The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns will face The Beast Brock Lesnar in Last Man Standing match at Summer Slam with Undisputed WWE Universal Championship on the line. These two have faced each other twice in 2022, with Reigns winning on both occasions. Now, we got an update about the future plans for Roman Reigns.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter disclosed that the expectation is for Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns to have a major match at Clash of the Champions and thats the reason WWE has kept these two apart till now to build this match.
“The main event for Clash at the Castle in Cardiff is expected to be Reigns vs. Drew McIntyre. The winner of Reigns vs. Lesnar faces the winner of the McIntyre vs. Sheamus Irish Doneybrook (no DQ, no count out) match on the 7/29 SmackDown show in Atlanta. As noted months ago, when the long-term plans, which always change, were made, it was Reigns vs. McIntyre as the headline bout, which is why the two have not met this year on a PPV show.” (H/T: Sportskeeda)
