WWE TV tapings: Roman Reigns advertised for Smackdown, US title match on Main Event
As usual, WWE will tape its Smackdown and Main Event shows on Tuesday night and this week the tapings will occur in Ottawa, Canada as WWE looks to pack up and finish its Canadian tour.
Featuring for the Smackdown main event match will be Roman Reigns who will go one-on-one against the Russian powerhouse Alexander Rusev. It will be an interesting encounter as Rusev is yet to lose a match and with Reigns as his opponent that could be a possible outcome of the match.
Other members of the roster include Randy Orton, Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, WWE tag champs The Shield, Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper & Erick Rowan, and Kane.
For the Main Event show, a United States championship match has been advertised between Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio. Sheamus will defend his title against the Mexican superstar in a one-on-one match.
Also advertised for the night is a Highlight Reel segment which Chris Jericho will host for the first time since his return. Hall of Famer Bret Hart will be the special guest on his show.
For the Live crowd in Ottawa, there will be a bonus main event between Reigns and Randy Orton. The two will be involved in a singles match which will be wrapping up this week’s schedule.
