Roman Reigns just wrestled his first match since defeating Jey Uso at SummerSlam on August 6, 2023.

Reigns made his big comeback on WWE SmackDown. The show ended with the tribal chief towering over LA Knight as the sellout crowd booed him out of the building.

Tonight Roman Reigns faced his former rival Sami Zayn at the live event in Kansas City. In the end, it was the tribal chief who emerged victorious over the crowd favorite after interference from The Bloodline.

Reigns now has LA Knight in his sights. After his attack on The Megastar on SmackDown, it is very likely that he will face Reigns in the near future.

It has been more than 1,140 days since Reigns won the Universal title. He also won the WWE title after defeating Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania last year.

Reigns is currently on a roll and there doesn’t seem to be anyone on the WWE roster who has what it takes to stop him. 2023 marked the implosion of The Bloodline as Jey Uso left the stable and became a singles star. However, the faction is still strongly represented on WWE SmackDown.

Only time will tell if someone will step in and put an end to Reigns’ reign as WWE’s top champion.
