#2 Edge challenges Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at WWE SummerSlam 2021
Edge returning on the July 16th episode of Friday Night SmackDown and challenging Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at WWE SummerSlam 2021 is a real possibility. This might not be what the fans would want to see, but it's a possibility that can't be ruled out.
He won the 2021 men's Royal Rumble match earlier this year. After teasing going after the WWE Champion as well as the NXT Champion, Edge chose to face Universal Champion Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 37. What was originally supposed to be a singles match between the two turned into a triple threat with Daniel Bryan making his way in it.
At WrestleMania 37, Reigns defeated both Edge and Bryan to retain his Universal Championship. While it would be best for WWE to close that feud, we might see The Rated-R Superstar return and claim that he did not get a fair chance at Roman Reigns and blame Daniel Bryan. He could then challenge The Tribal Chief once again at WWE SummerSlam 2021, possibly in some stipulation match.
