Roman Reigns’ latest message could have SummerSlam implications
WWE’s Twitter account urged the fans to grab tickets for the marquee event scheduled to take place in Detroit this year. Reigns responded to the post by writing, “You know what to do”. Followed by an emoji that denotes the trademark index finger pointing to the sky gesture.
You know what to do. ☝🏽 #SummerSlam https://t.co/nodCQmECt3

The message from the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion all but confirms his presence for the night. It makes complete sense from the Stamford-based promotion’s perspective to have arguably their biggest talent available for ‘The Biggest Party of The Summer’.
He would most likely defend his prized title belts but who will face him remains to be seen. There are a handful of opponents who could fit the bill perfectly.
Who could face Roman Reigns at SummerSlam?
The obvious choice would be Rhodes as the wrestling juggernaut could have the perfect storyline heading into SummerSlam. The American Nightmare is currently tussling with Brock Lesnar and has issued a challenge for the Backlash PLE. Lesnar’s blatant attack on Rhodes also led to a message from his half-brother Dustin Rhodes.
Another option that WWE could go in would be ‘The Architect’ Seth Rollins. There is an obvious history with Reigns owing to both sharing a common past with The Shield faction. There won’t be many complaints if they do decide to take that route.

An out-of-the-box choice could be the Intercontinental champion, Gunther. He has proved his stellar ability by constantly shining in the squared circle and is surely destined for greatness in the future. Though it may feel like a long shot, wrestling fans are well accustomed to the phrase “Never Say Never.”
