Roman Reigns May Have a New Partner for WWE SummerSlam Match

With WWE SummerSlam just a day away, one of the marquee matches features Roman Reigns teaming with Jey Uso to face the formidable duo of Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. However, a speculative scenario suggests a last-minute change could dramatically alter the lineup.

The potential twist involves Breakker and Reed launching a backstage assault on Jey Uso before the match, rendering him unable to compete. This would leave Roman Reigns without a partner for the high-profile contest and open the door for an unexpected replacement.

In this scenario, the most logical candidate to step in would be LA Knight. The 42-year-old superstar has been left without a clear direction following a significant change in creative plans. Knight was originally slated for a major program with Seth Rollins, culminating in a marquee match at SummerSlam. Those plans were derailed when Rollins suffered a legitimate injury, leaving Knight without an opponent for WWE’s biggest party of the summer.

Knight’s involvement would be seamless, as he was already embroiled in a feud with Rollins’ faction, which includes both Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. Inserting him into the match would not only solve the problem of Reigns needing a partner but would also capitalize on an existing rivalry.

While this development would add a compelling layer to the ongoing storylines, it’s important to note that this remains purely speculation. As of now, the match is still officially scheduled as Reigns and Uso versus Breakker and Reed.
