Roman Reigns made an impactful return, dominating the scene from the moment he came back. WWE’s latest episode of the Red Brand Show, held at Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama, featured a gauntlet match to decide who would challenge Gunther at SummerSlam.
As anticipated, CM Punk emerged victorious, eliminating Bron Breakker with his signature GTS to claim the win. However, Bronson Reed, Breakker’s ally, was unhappy with the result and attacked Punk after the match. Jay Uso intervened to help, but was taken down by a spear from Reed.
Following the chaos, Reed tried to set Punk up for another spear, but was interrupted when the music signaled the arrival of Roman Reigns and The Usos’ return to WWE. The leader of The Bloodline cleared the ring with a series of Superman punches and a powerful spear delivered to Bronson Reed. He then assisted Jay Uso to his feet. Punk got up but ended the show facing off against the three members of The Bloodline in a tense standoff.
After the show concluded, Punk and Jay left the arena, while Roman Reigns lingered to play to the crowd before finally exiting.
Fan Take: This dramatic return of Roman Reigns alongside The Usos reignites one of WWE’s most dominant factions, shaking up the landscape just ahead of SummerSlam. For fans, this sets the stage for high-stakes rivalries and intense matchups that promise to elevate the excitement of WWE programming.
