WWE has officially announced the next Universal Title defense for Roman Reigns at Extreme Rules 2021. In a rematch from last Friday’s SmackDown on FOX episode, The Tribal Chief will defend his belt against Finn Balor.
The September 3 episode of SmackDown saw Roman Reigns retaining over Balor in the main event match. Balor was attacked by SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos before the match began. Since Balor wasn’t 100 percent before competing in that match, storyline-wise, WWE set up the rematch where Balor can receive his one-on-one rematch with perhaps some sort of added stipulations.
