We’re officially into the build-up towards the final PPV of the year – TLC: Tables, Ladders, and Chairs! For weeks, fans wondered who could step up to the ‘Tribal Chief‘ for the Universal Championship. Finally, the mystery seems to unfold with Kevin Owens sending a message to Roman Reigns on SmackDown this week.
Roman Reigns sends out a warning to Kevin Owens
Kevin Owens stepped up to Jey Uso this Friday Night on SmackDown when the latter attacked Daniel Bryan in the gorilla position. After Jey attacked KO with a steel chair to end their match in a DQ, Owens got back and annihilated one-half of The Usos.

The ‘Prizefighter’ Kevin Owens also called out Roman Reigns and asked him where he was. The Universal Champion was watching it all backstage with his ‘Special Counsel’ Paul Heyman by his side.
WWE uploaded the clip of Kevin Owens calling out Roman Reigns while brutalizing Jey Uso on Twitter. The ‘Head of the Table’ quoted the clip and sent out a warning to Kevin Owens, suggesting he should’ve kept his interests limited to the Universal Champion only.
The Universal Championship should have been your only interest.
You attack my blood, you bring violence and threaten our position.
You have my attention. #Smackdown https://t.co/110SNFSYg5

Kevin Owens’ inclusion in the Universal Championship picture adds so much intrigue and guarantees entertainment. KO is a natural on the microphone and Roman – well, we all know how far he’s come in promos.

Considering the in-ring action, both men can work a brilliant match together. They did feud with each other in the past, but the scenario was different. It was Roman Reigns, the challenger and Kevin Owens, the Universal Champion back then. Now, the scenario is the exact opposite.

WWE is booking this feud leading into TLC, which leads many fans to believe if the match between the two will have some sort of a gimmick involved. With Roman and Jey Uso consistently using chairs to deliver their message, a chair’s match would fit the battleground for the match between the ‘Tribal Chief’ and the ‘Prizefighter.’
