10 Things We Need To See Post-WWE Summerslam 2022
1. A Fighting Champion
First of all, Roman's two-year reign has been nigh-perfect. Not only has it revitalised a performer whose presentation was previously never quite there, it has seen its share of excellent matches against Daniel Bryan, Jey Uso, and several more.
With Reigns’ new reduced contract, though, we’re seeing less and less of the straps, and while sparing use does help to elevate the importance of the titles, the part time champ is always a dangerous route to go down. That, combined with the fact Roman has now wrecked everyone, means it might be time to leave.
When, where, and how to change the title? Well, it’s obvious, but put it on Drew McIntyre at Clash At The Castle. If WWE wants that Bulldog ‘92 pop - and they surely do - then this is that opportunity. They’ve five weeks to make McIntyre toppling the Tribal Chief a viable outcome - that’s not too hard.
And from there, he can take on all and sundry, capably holding down the fort while we wait for Cody to come back. They’re two men with similar paths, reinventing themselves elsewhere before returning to WWE - the story writes itself.
