Roman Reigns battling 32-year-old WWE star in "huge" match is possible, says veteran, under one condition
Since Roman Reigns' return at WWE SummerSlam, many have suggested potential opponents for the Original Tribal Chief. Meanwhile, wrestling veteran Konnan has claimed that the former Shield member could share the ring with another Bloodline member in a "huge" match under one condition.
The superstar in question is none other than Jacob Fatu. The 32-year-old Bloodline member debuted in WWE on the June 21, 2024, episode of SmackDown and joined Solo Sikoa's faction.
Although Reigns took out his former Enforcer upon his comeback at The Biggest Party of The Summer during the latter's Undisputed WWE Championship Bloodline Rules Match against Cody Rhodes, he did not cross paths with The Samoan Werewolf, who seemingly injured himself outside the ring seconds earlier.
On the Keepin' It 100 OFFICIAL podcast, Konnan addressed the possibility of Roman Reigns locking horns with Jacob Fatu. The veteran claimed the match would be "huge" if the company continued to book Sikoa's Enforcer as a "monster.''
"It'll be huge. Bro, they built [Jacob] Fatu to be a monster. I think Fatu, if they keep booking him like this, him and Roman's gonna be money," he said. [1:36:23-1:37:02]
Roman Reigns will fight Cody Rhodes for a third time after his WWE return, predicts ex-WWE host
In the latest episode of The Wrestling Matt podcast, former WWE host Matt Camp discussed Roman Reigns' blockbuster return at The Biggest Party of The Summer last weekend.
Camp predicted that the former Universal Champion will have a third match against Cody Rhodes in the coming months. The two superstars exchanged victories at WrestleMania 39 and 40.
The former RAW Talk host pointed out that the massive encounter could happen on the premiere episode of the red brand on Netflix in January.
"I don't know how long they wanna wait on Cody and Roman. Let me throw this out here: You know they wanna make a splash for Netflix; you know it, as they should. That first episode on Netflix is gonna be loaded up. Do we see Cody [vs.] Roman on that? Do we see Cody [vs.] The Rock on that? I think it's absolutely in play. Absolutely in play. I think we're getting a massive match," he said.
Reigns will return to SmackDown this Friday. Wrestling veteran Matthew Rehwoldt (FKA Aiden English) suggested that the Original Tribal Chief could have a heated confrontation with The American Nightmare on this week's episode of the blue brand.
It will be interesting to see if Roman and Cody share the ring on this week's Friday Night Show.
