WWE Smackdown- Roman Reigns vs Finn Balor: The Prince- Finn Balor issued a challenge against the Universal Champion Roman Reigns last week on WWE Smackdown. Reigns didn’t take the challenge seriously at first, but later, he agreed to it, and the two men would now be facing each other at some stage for the Universal title.
WWE Smackdown- Roman Reigns vs Finn Balor: When everyone was expecting Cena vs. Roman at Summerslam and its build-up in 5-weeks, Balor burst into the scene out of nowhere, and it seems like he might be in a great chance to face Roman at the biggest party of the summer, i.e., Summerslam. Balor, who was the first-ever Universal Champion, had to relinquish his title 24-hours later on Monday night Raw after winning it due to injury.
Since then, he hasn’t got many opportunities at the title, but last week on WWE Smackdown, Balor burst into the scene & now he will be fighting for the title he never lost. WWE is yet to reveal the date when these two will be squaring off for the Universal Championship. But before the match, Roman Reigns has issued a cold statement for Finn Balor on his official Twitter handle. Here’s what he has written,
“Welcome back to the Island of Relevancy, @FinnBalor. Not everyone gets a second chance, don’t waste it. #Smackdown“

The statement is straight into the face of the Prince- Finn Balor, who returned two weeks back on WWE Smackdown after a brief stint in WWE NXT. Once John Cena’s proposal of facing Roman Reigns at WWE Summerslam was rejected by the champion himself, Balor came out of nowhere and issued a challenge of his own.
Likewise, Balor wasn’t one of those who stayed calm after the cold statement issued by Roman Reigns. He had a befitting reply to Roman’s tweet. Balor wrote,
“That ‘island’ is surrounded by deep water…and that’s exactly where we are going Uce! Hope you can swim! @WWERomanReigns”
