#8 WWE Universal Championship Title Fatal 4-Way Match: Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins vs. Kevin Owens vs. Big Cass

Kevin Owens becomes the second WWE Universal Champion

The much awaited WWE Universal Championship match is up next. Who will win it and become the second WWE Universal Champion? Will it be the predictable choice - Rollins or Reigns, or something unexpected - Kevin Owens? One thing we all probably know is that Big Cass isn't going home with the belt.

Either way, this one will be good.

Roman Reigns is out first with a wall of boos. However, to his defence, there are almost as many cheers as boos. But, it sounds like the audios being messed with a little as the audience sound suddenly got drowned out. Is this a sign that Roman is winning?

Rollins gets a huge pop as he comes out next. He's definitely the favourite to win today.

Surprisingly, Big Cass gets the biggest pop of the four competitors. He's definitely the wildcard for today's match. Enzo is out with him and they do their usual shtick. The Certified-G's are in the HOUSE! Cass says that he'll win the Universal Championship and shock the world.

Brace yourselves folks. We're in for one hell of a ride.
