Balor and Reigns had a stellar rivalry towards the later half of 2021. The Prince had been looking for a shot at the champion since SummerSlam last year, but the match didn’t pan out as The Tribal Chief had to deal with John Cena.
The Demon finally got his match at Extreme Rules 2021 and vowed to win back the title he never lost in the first place.
On the latest episode of Out of Character with Ryan Satin, Balor mentioned that he felt he needed a strong run on the main roster to rejuvenate his career. He detailed that WWE management promised him a main event run with Reigns which compelled him to renew his contract with the company.
Roman Reigns has been the champion for two years.
This coming Friday will mark two years since Roman Reigns became the Universal Champion.
The Tribal Chief won the gold at Payback in 2020. Since then, Reigns has been the single most dominant force on the WWE roster. With some assistance from The Bloodline, The Head of the Table has maintained an iron hold on the “Island of Relevancy,” taking down every challenger that stood up to him.
To commemorate this historic reign, WWE announced that there would be a grand celebration on the upcoming episode of SmackDown in honor of the Head of the Table.
