Roman Reigns isn’t done with The Vision at all. Having returned last week after a month-long hiatus, ‘The OTC’ kicked off the proceedings this Monday night on Raw. He got interrupted by Paul Heyman and Bronson Reed. ‘The Head of the Table’ told the Aussie grappler that he is levels above him. After Reigns asserted that he could handle Reed anytime and anywhere he wanted, Heyman came up with a proposal.

‘The Wiseman’ challenged his former client on Reed’s behalf to an Australian Street Fight at this weekend’s Crown Jewel PLE in Perth. Reigns, almost nonchalantly, quipped it’s too easy for him, and he accepted it.

Heyman and Reed decided to leave the arena after ‘The OTC’ agreed to their overtures. Reigns, however, was clearly in a mood to fight and joked that the Vision members were retreating like a couple of “bi*ches.”

‘The Auszilla’ was incensed over it, and he made a beeline for his rival. Reed and Reigns started brawling in the ring, and the action eventually spilled over to the ringside area. Marred by security intervention, neither of the men was able to get hold of the other.

But Reigns still ended up clocking the self-proclaimed ‘Tribal Thief’ with two Superman Punches right on the button. For the unversed, Crown Jewel will be the second one-on-one meeting between Reed and Reigns.

They last met at Clash in Paris, where the former Undisputed WWE Champion got the better of the Adelaide-born wrestler. Afterwards, Reigns got back his sneakers that Reed had stolen from him on two different occasions.

Just when the ‘Tribal Chief’ was voluntarily throwing those self-autographed sneakers into the crowd, he got speared by Bron Breakker from behind. Breakker and Reed then worked in tandem to annihilate Reigns to a point where the latter had to be stretchered out of the building.

What happened between Roman Reigns and The Usos on Raw?

After laying his hands on Bronson Reed in the opening segment, Roman Reigns was featured in a couple of backstage segments with The Usos. First off, Jimmy and Jey assured to have their cousin’s back at Crown Jewel. But Reigns asked them to calm down, as he didn’t need any help this time around, and especially not from ‘The Yeet Master’.

‘The OTC’ looked the Jey in his face and reminded him about the pep talk he gave to the San Francisco native just days before Clash in Paris. ‘The Tribal Chief’ regurgitated that Jey should be laser-focused on separating himself from the rest of the pack and cashing in on every opportunity that he gets. Reigns asked who’s the talk of the town at the moment, to which Jey responded by name-dropping CM Punk.

The former Bloodline supremo shook his head and wondered why it’s not Jey. Upon hearing that, Uso stormed off. Moments later, the ‘OTC1’ questioned ‘Big Jim’ why he was taking offense with Jey working as per his advice. Later on in the night, Jey Uso interrupted Punk and LA Knight in a segment where they were trading barbs over who should be next in line to challenge Seth Rollins for the world title.

‘The Master of Yeet’ soon walked down that aisle and affirmed that he never got his rematch for the World Heavyweight Championship that he lost to Gunther. Knight discarded the theory that implied Uso wasted the glory that he once had just because he wasn’t thinking like Reigns. ‘The Megastar’ suggested Uso focus on being a tag team wrestler because that’s his best shot.

Just then, Jimmy Uso came out, and Knight told him they were on good terms except for his twin brother. The former ‘Right Hand Man’ to Reigns eventually superkicked Knight after having heard enough from him.

Jey got punched by CM Punk after the latter trolled him by referring to Uso as “Little Roman.” Backstage, Jey lashed out at ‘Big Jim’ over why he came out during his segment, which resulted in The Usos getting themselves booked in a tag team match against Punk and Knight.

After Jey left, Jimmy relayed to Reigns that he would always look after the ‘Master of Yeet’. ‘Big Jim’, however, told the ‘OTC’ to his face that neither of them is anything like Reigns. At last, the ‘Tribal Chief’ retorted by saying that while Jey was the World Heavyweight Champion, he was more like Reigns and less like Jimmy. And that’s why the latter should stay out of his way, added the former Shield member.
