Roman Reigns will defend the Universal Championship against Edge at Money in the Bank. The two will carry on with the electric momentum gathered during their six-man Tag Team Match in front of WWE fans on SmackDown.

Edge and Reigns are likely to main-event the pay-per-view. The result seems predictable, but a couple of possibilities may spring doubt.

For one, WWE will have been watching the incredible reaction Edge got on SmackDown, which could inspire a few unexpected diversions. The company has even teased some involvement from a certain "savior."

Let's look at a few possible ways Roman Reigns vs. Edge could end at Money in the Bank. What do you think will happen in the Universal Title match on Sunday? Let us know in the comments section below.


#5 The Usos help Roman Reigns defeat Edge at Money in the Bank

Probably the most infuriating outcome, Jimmy and Jey Uso could play a pivotal part in the Universal Championship match at Money in the Bank. Jey has previously thwarted Edge's Universal Title hopes, interfering in the main event of WrestleMania 37. This time, his twin brother could join in the trouble.

The two of them have reunited with Roman Reigns and together, The Bloodline is stronger than ever. And while The Rated-R Superstar has handled The Usos so far, their interference might prove too much on Sunday.

Edge did get some help from Rey and Dominik Mysterio. However, the current SmackDown Tag Team Champions may lose their titles to Jimmy and Jey on the Money in the Bank Kickoff Show.

That could be the catalyst for The Usos helping Roman Reigns defeat Edge and all three standing tall as Champions. It would garner immense heat for The Head of The Table and his cousins. But WWE can end this match in other ways, whether Reigns retains the title or not.

#4 The Usos accidentally cost Roman Reigns the Universal Championship at Money in the Bank

Edge has already shown he can beat The Tribal Chief, making him tap out on SmackDown. This spells doom for his chances on Sunday. But what if WWE wants to shock fans at Money in the Bank?

Judging by the reactions of WWE fans, they would love it if The Rated-R Superstar pulled it off.

If it does happen, Edge most likely wouldn't beat Roman Reigns clean. His victory may come via failed interference from The Usos. Jimmy and Jey try to tilt the Money in the Bank match in their cousin's favor, but the move backfires and the WWE Hall of Famer capitalizes.

Edge does have unfinished business with world titles in WWE, having retired as the World Heavyweight Champion in 2011. But will he be able to dethrone Roman Reigns at Money in the Bank?

#3 Seth Rollins runs interference at Money in the Bank

If Edge and Roman Reigns main event Money in the Bank, it opens up the possibility of Seth Rollins interfering. The 'Savior of SmackDown' is in the Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match - a match he isn't the favorite to win.

If he fails to capture the briefcase, Rollins could take out his frustrations on Edge. After all, he thinks The Rated-R Superstar passed him in line for a Universal Championship match when he returned on SmackDown last month.

The two have also teased a match through multiple backstage interactions. These interactions have made a possible Rollins appearance the likeliest option for the Universal Title bout at Money in the Bank.

If somebody has to interfere in the match to help Roman Reigns win, Rollins would be a better choice than The Usos so that it transitions into a feud. The former Money in the Bank winner could help Reigns pick up a victory, furthering the subtle story between the two former Shield brothers.

#2 Roman Reigns defeats Edge clean at Money in the Bank

Roman Reigns will likely beat Edge at Money in the Bank, but how he does it is anybody's guess. Apart from speculations over possible interferences in his favor, The Tribal Chief could win clean on his own.

Reigns has not needed help in any of his matches since WrestleMania. He defeated Daniel Bryan, Cesaro, and Rey Mysterio on his own, unlike at the Show of Shows, where Jey Uso cost Edge the Universal Championship.

The trend could continue at Money in the Bank with a statement victory for Roman Reigns against the WWE Hall of Famer. It would further elevate his stock. Also, The Head of Table gets stronger in time for his likely SummerSlam match against John Cena.

The match between Edge and Reigns would be better without any interference. There is no shame for the 11-time world champion to lose to the most dominant WWE Superstar in years. But he did look mighty strong on SmackDown after standing tall over Roman Reigns and making him tap out.

#1 Seth Rollins cashes in his Money in the Bank contract

What if Roman Reigns vs. Edge at Money in the Bank ends with neither of them winning?

Seth Rollins leaving Money in the Bank with the Universal Championship would be the wildest outcome, but not impossible. The 'Savior of SmackDown' won the 2014 Money in the Bank Ladder Match and his cash-in was the greatest in WWE history

Rollins interrupted an intense war between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 31, using his briefcase to turn it into a triple threat match. He instantly turned a great match into a legendary one, while his win was dubbed the Heist of the Century.

Seth Rollins could do the unthinkable again on Sunday and turn the match between Roman Reigns and Edge into a three-way.

This moment would be déjà vu for The Tribal Chief, who was pinned by his former Shield brother at WrestleMania 31. He doesn't even need to be beaten, with Edge taking the fall. His tension with Rollins could boil over, leading to the addition of the Universal Championship to their impending SummerSlam match.
