WWE Rumor Roundup: Hall of Famer fired, When The Fiend will win the title again and more - 11th September 2020

When The Fiend will win the WWE title again

'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt dropping the title to Goldberg was not a decision that the WWE Universe appreciated but Roman Reigns winning the title off him after just a week into the reign was not highly criticized.

Reigns is now set to defend his title against Jey Uso at Clash of Champions later this year, and Tom Colohue claims that it is just a 'filler feud'. WWE still view 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt vs Roman Reigns as the next big feud on SmackDown.

Talking on the Dropkick DiSKussions podcast, Colohue said:

"Well, it has been made clear to me that The Fiend is endgame material so this is the real big feud that they want to put together between these two. That said, we could see the match at any point, such is the way of long-term planning in the WWE right now. If they need to pull the trigger ahead of time if someone is injured or someone is unavailable, and they just need a big feud to fill the spot, it could be that we see this match very soon, even as soon as Hell in a Cell. I would be surprised though to see it happen before the Royal Rumble. I think they want to keep The Fiend out of Hell in a Cell after what happened last year and when it comes to the Hell in a Cell, The Fiend is not really made to step into that particular match."

It looks like WWE could keep Roman Reigns occupied with multiple small feuds before putting him up against The Fiend at Royal Rumble at the start of the next year.
