Roman Reigns Makes Dramatic Return Ahead of WWE Summerslam 2025
Exciting Developments in WWE Summerslam 2025
During the latest episode of Raw, a significant match for WWE Summerslam 2025 was announced, featuring a world title bout. CM Punk triumphed in a gauntlet match, securing a title shot for the upcoming premium live event. Shortly thereafter, Roman Reigns made a surprise return to assist Punk, marking his comeback after a break since the day following Wrestlemania 41.
In the main event on July 14, Bron Breakker faced off against Penta, LA Knight, and Jey Uso in the Gauntlet Match but ultimately fell to CM Punk in the final round. As a result, Punk is set to challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE Summerslam 2025.
Following the match, Breakker and Bronson Reed attacked Punk and Jey Uso, prompting Roman Reigns to return and intervene, taking down both Breakker and Reed. This marked the beginning of the buildup for WWE Summerslam 2025, coinciding with earlier reports of his participation in the event.
There were rumors suggesting that with Seth Rollins sidelined due to injury, Reigns might face Breakker in a singles match at WWE Summerslam 2025, with Reed in his corner. However, WWE has different plans.
According to Sean Ross Sapp from a recap show, the current strategy involves Roman Reigns teaming up with Jey Uso to take on Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed in a tag team match at WWE Summerslam 2025. This decision delays the anticipated singles match between Reigns and Breakker, allowing the latter to elevate his status further, with a potential showdown at WrestleMania 42.
