Roman Reigns and Rey Mysterio feuded back in 2021 as well

About 10 months after Reigns' legendary reign as the Universal Champion kicked off, he kicked off a feud with Rey Mysterio on WWE SmackDown. On June 18, 2021, Reigns took on Mysterio inside Hell In A Cell on an episode of SmackDown. Mysterio gave everything he had but Reigns submitted him in the end to win the match.

Reigns now has his full focus on SummerSlam 2023. At the mega event, he will defend the Undisputed WWE Universal title against his cousin Jey Uso. The duo is scheduled to battle in a Tribal Combat at The Biggest Party of the Summer.

The title of The Tribal Chief will also be on the line in this huge encounter. It remains to be seen if Jey Uso manages to unseat Reigns from his throne, or if the latter wins another feud against his cousin.
