Roman Reigns Makes History At WWE SummerSlam

This year’s SummerSlam event marked new and brought back old chapters involving Roman Reigns.

Reigns beat Brock Lesnar to win the Universal Title at Sunday’s (August 19, 2018) WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view event in Brooklyn, New York at the Barclays Center on the WWE Network. Braun Strowman came out before the match and stated that he would cash-in his Money in the Bank briefcase after this match. Obviously, that didn’t happen as Lesnar took out the fan favorite.

Reigns made history with the SummerSlam win as he became the first WWE Grand Slam Champion to hold the Universal Title.

This leads us to this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Brooklyn, New York on the USA Network where Reigns beat Finn Balor to retain his title. After the contest, Strowman came out and attacked Reigns where he was about to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase in order to get a Universal Title match.

However, this is when Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose walked out in their old gear and Shield music to make the save and attack Strowman to reunite The Shield as a group.

Following the show, the company released three new t-shirts for The Shield after their reunion, which you can see here:

Although not confirmed, there is speculation that Reigns will defend his Universal Title against Strowman at the upcoming Hell In A Cell pay-per-view event that takes place on Sunday, September 16, 2018 in San Antonio, Texas at the AT&T Center and will air on the WWE Network. WWE will be announcing matches for this card in the coming weeks.
