After 1000+ Days as a Champion, Roman Reigns Will Break a Long Standing Record if He Defeats Jey Uso at SummerSlam

Fans as always, are gung ho for WWE’s upcoming pay-per-view SummerSlam which takes place at Ford Field in Detroit on 5th August. The night is loaded with adrenaline-pumping matches. One of them being Cody Rhodes facing his biggest challenge till date ‘The Beast Incarnate’ Brock Lesnar.

Another match the fans are super excited for is Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins defending his ‘World Heavyweight Champion’ against Finn Balor. Balor is still seeking revenge for the injury Seth inflicted on him at SummerSlam almost 7 years ago. But the biggest match that has got the entire WWE universe galvanized is the match between Roman Reigns and Jey Uso for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. And The Tribal Chief might just have a chance to get his ultimate revenge with Jey at SummerSlam.

Jey Uso is undefeated at Summerslam with a record of 4-0

A Winning streak is something that fans in the WWE hold very close to their heart. And when you talk of winning streaks, there is just one undisputed champion, ‘The Deadman’ The Undertaker with his Wrestlemania streak of 21-1.

But The Undertaker’s streak was broken at Wrestlemania 30 by Brock Lesnar. This inspired another upcoming wrestler from the Anoa’i family to start his own streak at SummerSlam. We are talking about none other than one-half of The Usos, Jey. SummerSlam is one main event that seems to be ever so gracious on Jey. He started his streak by winning his matches in 2016 and 2017. And also won his last two matches at SummerSlam with the latest being with The Street Profits.

Reigns has a golden opportunity here, to not only teach Jey a lesson about who is the boss but also to spoil his SummerSlam streak of 4-0. And with Solo and The Wiseman Paul Heyman playing their dirty games ringside, seems like Jey’s streak might finally end at SummerSlam. On the other hand, if Jey can continue his streak by accomplishing the behemoth task of defeating ‘The Head Of The Table’ at SummerSlam. And later keep up the streak in the coming years, he might very well be on the path to glory just as The Undertaker.

We will only have to wait and watch to see if Jey has got the mettle to come anywhere closer to The Deadman’s Streak. But the streak is something that might not exactly be on Jey’s mind right now. It’s just pure rage that was clearly visible 2 weeks ago on SmackDown. Jey destroyed Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa because of their vicious attack on his brother, Jimmy.

Jimmy Usos’ brutal attack enraged Jey to challenge The Tribal Chief himself

Two weeks ago, on SmackDown, The Usos and Roman Reigns, Solo Sikoa confronted each other. And while Roman Reigns seemed really emotional about The Bloodline. So much so that he even put the “Ula Fala” around the neck of Jey and went down on his knees. He even cried and Jey tried comforting him, only to be given a low blow. A brutal attack on The Usos followed thereafter.

But Jimmy suffered the major brunt of the attack. With multiple steel step shots to the head in addition to Solo putting him right through the announcer’s table. All this led to Jimmy being rushed to the hospital immediately. At the end of the show, Jey popped up while Reigns and Solo were in the ring and went berserk. He took both of them on and later ended the thrashing with multiple chair shots to both Reigns and Solo. And while Reigns was exiting, Jey challenged him for his most prized possession, the ‘Undisputed WWE Universal Champion’. He called it ‘Trial Of The Tribal Chief’.
