Roman Reigns was directly involved in the DQ result last week when The Usos made their in-ring return against King Corbin and Dolph Ziggler. It seemed as though The Big Dog was going to stand tall but Robert Roode, who had been suspended this past month, returned to action to attack Reigns and help his teammate Dolph Ziggler.

It's funny to think that just over two years ago, the three men were battling it out for the United States title and now they're all aligned together.

Robert Roode is all set to take on Roman Reigns in a Tables match main event and we couldn't be more excited about it! Reigns hasn't been the "Superman" character in 2019 that many hated him for and that's likely what has led to him regaining his popularity.

It also helps that he hasn't been in any title picture (minus that brief encounter with Shinsuke Nakamura last year) and despite all of this, he hasn't cooled down either.

Although he has been pegged as a potential favorite to win the Royal Rumble match, we could see a scenario where he loses to Robert Roode clean to put the returning Roode over as a force to be reckoned with. He could always get that win back later.
