As per Dave Meltzer of WON, Reigns is scheduled to defend the Universal title against Rey and Dominik Mysterio after MITB, which means that he will retain at the upcoming PPV.
“7/24 in Pittsburgh is listing Reigns vs. Rey & Dominik Mysterio in a handicap match with the title at stake which means Reigns has to win and putting the title up in a handicap match is stupid to begin with, as it just makes the babyfaces look like they are losers to start out with.”
