5 possible WWE SmackDown Live scenarios: The Hardy Boyz relinquish their titles?

#3 Roman Reigns revenge

Roman Reigns immediately made his mark as a new member of the blue brand's roster by attacking Vince McMahon and Elias on the Superstar Shake-Up episode of SmackDown Live two weeks ago.

Last week, Shane McMahon fought his father’s battle for him by joining forces with WWE’s resident guitarist to ambush “The Big Dog” in the opening segment of SmackDown Live, leading to the announcement that it will be Reigns vs. Elias at Money In The Bank on May 19.

Since losing to Bobby Lashley at Extreme Rules in July 2018, Reigns has only been defeated in one of his last 17 televised matches (Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler & Drew McIntyre def. The Shield, October 2018), which just goes to show how rare it is that rivals gain the upper hand on the four-time WrestleMania main-eventer.

With that stat in mind, we would be foolish to expect anything other than a vicious Elias beatdown at the hands of Reigns this week.
