After a barnburner of a match at SummerSlam, Roman Reigns has decided to step away from the ring for a short while to decompress. The Tribal Chief successfully defended his throne against his cousin at the Biggest Party of the Summer. Not only did he put his WWE Undisputed Universal Championship on the line, but also his revered traditional Ula Fala. 

After a hard-fought battle, Reigns triumphed over Jey Uso. Despite the fact that Reigns used unfair means to subdue Jey, a short vacation could seem like a good idea. That said, “The Only One” took to social media to share a picture of a serene beach, enjoying his downtime.

SummerSlam was truly an exciting event. Although the entire show was replete with high-octane matches, none was as much talked about as the Tribal Combat. It all started with Jimmy Uso mounting a mutiny against Roman Reigns. However, in the end, Jimmy returned to turn on his twin, Jey, allowing Reigns to continue to reside on the Island of Relevancy. 

Say what you will about Reigns, but he really needed to unwind after a very taxing night. Taking to Twitter, Reigns posted a picture of a picturesque beach while being seated under a beach umbrella. He wrote, “Umbrella Service. And Still. The Only Tribal Chief.” As Roman Reigns rejuvenates, Jimmy Uso will have some explaining to do on SmackDown. 

By the looks of things, however, it seems as though Jimmy’s initial dissension with Roman Reigns was just a setup to throw Jey Uso under the bus. But one thing is for certain, come hell or high water, Roman Reigns will do anything in his power to remain the real Tribal Chief and keep his championship.

Moreover, judging by the way things are going, Reigns may even surpass Hulk Hogan’s historic 1,403-day reign as Champion. Anyway, a lot remains to be seen going forward. While Jey Uso has a new enemy in the form of his twin, Reigns may be at odds with the enforcer of Bloodline, Solo Sikoa. 

Did WWE tease a potential feud between Solo Sikoa and Roman Reigns?

During the match at SummerSlam, Solo Sikoa emerged out of nowhere and attacked Jey Uso. Make no mistake, Jey Uso looked like he was going to win the match in spite of Sikoa’s presence, but the numbers game got the best of Jey.

However, at one point, while Solo Sikoa was setting up Jey Uso for a Samoan Spike combined with a spear, Uso dodged the bullet by stepping aside. As a result, Sikoa ended up receiving the spear.

Later in the match, Reigns extended his arm, asking Sikoa for help, but the younger Samoan refused to help him up on his feet. Furthermore, fans witnessed an argument between the duo before Jey Uso speared the champion through the barricade. 

Despite the conflict, Solo continued to victimize Jey Uso further in the match. At this point, we know for sure that Roman Reigns’ brief clash with Siko portends a potential feud between the duo. We will have to wait and see what’s in store for Roman Reigns as the Bloodline drama continues.
