WWE SmackDown: 1 superstar who flopped and 4 who impressed – Big blunder with The Usos, Roman Reigns to feud with 15-time champion next? (June 4th, 2021)
WWE SmackDown: 1 superstar who flopped and 4 who impressed – Big blunder with The Usos, Roman Reigns to feud with 15-time champion next? (June 4th, 2021)
Roman Reigns kickstarted this week’s episode of WWE SmackDown alongside Paul Heyman as both of them reminded fans of their dominance. For all the criticism that he has received in the past over his mic skills, the reigning Universal Champion deserves credit for his recent improvement in promos. Tonight, he proved that he could carry interesting promos all by himself.

Reigns then summoned both his cousins and made it clear that their only option was to win. When The Usos lost their first match, their ‘Tribal Chief’ warned them about the consequences of failing. Reigns ended up interfering during the second match when he saw that Dominik Mysterio was close to winning the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Title match once again.
He also brutalized Dominik to send a strong message. Jimmy Uso disagreed with Reigns’ actions, but that didn’t bother him enough to stop. Instead, his glare stopped Jey Uso from stepping out of the ring. Reigns came across as a brutal heel, and it added more credibility to his character. His assault on Dominik also means that we could see a feud between him and Rey Mysterio develop on WWE SmackDown sooner rather than later.
