WWE RUMOR: Future Plans For Roman Reigns And The Usos

Keep it going! It has been a long time since WWE has seen someone in the realm of Roman Reigns. After winning the Universal Title in August 2020, Reigns has showed no signs of slowing down and has even expanded his presence on SmackDown. That includes an alliance with his family, and now it seems that things might be sticking together even longer than expected.

According to Wrestlingnews.co, WWE has long terms plans for Reigns and the Usos as a unit. The company is trying to accomplish two things at the same time, with the idea being to make Reigns into as big of a star as John Cena or the Rock, while also making Reigns and the Usos into a tighter unit. The Usos are expected to win the SmackDown Tag Team Titles and become completely aligned with Reigns by Summerslam in August.

Reigns and Jey Uso have been united since late 2020 after Reigns defeated Jey in back to back pay per view Universal Title matches. Jey has ultimately moved on to become Reigns’ right hand man and main supporter. Jimmy returned from a year plus long absence but has been hesitant to join forces with Reigns. The Usos lost a pair of shots at the SmackDown Tag Team Titles during last week’s SmackDown, with the latter due to Reigns’ interference.

They do have some history together. Check out Reigns and the team:

Daniel Bryan vs. Roman Reigns: Universal Title Match: SmackDown, April 30, 2021

Rey & Dominik Mysterio vs. The Usos – SmackDown Tag Team Title Match: SmackDown, June 4, 2021

FULL MATCH - Reigns & Usos vs. Corbin, Ziggler & Roode: SmackDown, Jan. 31, 2020

Opinion: This is the kind of thing that makes sense and it could be interesting to see how WWE gets there. The story has been set up well and it would be logical to have the Usos get onto Reigns’ side in the end. The trio being together should be quite the force and it could mean that Reigns holds the title even longer than usual. This is an idea that WWE has seemed to want to do for a long time now and it could work rather well.

What do you think of the idea? Will the team work? Let us know in the comments below.
