On Monday’s episode of WWE Raw, general manager Mick Foley made the announcement that Kevin Owens would defend his title against Seth Rollins at the Clash of Champions on September 25.
At the end of this week’s show, Roman Reigns confronted Kevin Owens in the ring. Just before the two were about to brawl, general manager Mick Foley walked out to the stage and made a shocking announcement that he would grant the Big Dog an opportunity to challenge the champ in next week’s Raw.

In the event that Reigns wins, Foley stated that he will be adding him to the Clash of Champions, which would make the match a Triple Threat between Owens, Rollins, and Reigns. Even though Reigns just lost the Universal Championship match last week, the WWE is already giving him another opportunity to take the title prize on Raw.
Roman Reigns made it abundantly clear that he is eager for his chance to take down Kevin Owens. He posted the video of the confrontation on his Facebook page with the caption: “Seth Rollins isn’t the only one that’s angry…” In the video, Reigns gets face to face with Owens, before the champ stepped out of the ring. Owens’ buddy, Chris Jericho stepped out into the arena in order to protect him, but eventually got speared by Reigns in a surprise attack gone wrong.
Because Rusev has been off of TV recently due to his real-life wedding and honeymoon with Lana, the WWE has decided to lump Roman Reigns in with the Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens feud. The rivalry seemed to be growing thick between Owens and Rollins, but adding Reigns into the mix will definitely muddy the situation.
With his championship victory on last week’s Raw, Kevin Owens was poised to be the No. 1 heel in the WWE. Even with Triple H supporting Kevin Owens, it will be hard for the anyone to be more villainous than Roman Reigns now that he has been added into the Rollins-Owens rivalry.
Who do you want to come out victorious between Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Kevin Owens?
