Finn Bálor to challenge Roman Reigns for the Universal Title next Friday

This week on SmackDown, Finn Bálor interrupted Roman Reigns and The Bloodline during their Family Celebration to challenge The Head of the Table and finally get the Universal Title Match that he was denied at SummerSlam.

Although SmackDown ended in chaos, WWE.com has learned that this match is official. What will happen when Roman Reigns goes to war with The Prince for the Universal Championship?

------------

Brock is definitely showing right?​

It's looks like WWE is finally trying to step up and compete like they used to. Good for them.

Also, this better shut up the "he never got a rematch" crowd.

 

[Dale]

They're gonna be calling for another rematch when Brock shows up and ruins the match

 

[Marty McFourth]

I'm looking forward to Finn vs Roman but I definitely hope they just let it happen. It'll be a really good match and is one of the reasons I'm looking forward to watching next week.

He said rematch I'm just noticing but I thought he just meant "match" since they had that contract signing for Finn that Cena stole recently lol

He's had many matches, but the Finn fans don't ever shut up about not getting one. So at least tonight, he gets a final one-on-one.

You just mean for the Universal title or specifically against Roman?

The Universal Title. Ever since he e forfeited it, fans constantly say he's never had a rematch despite having a few. Just not usually 1-on-1.

I think he did have one against Brock at a royal rumble maybe? I don't think it shut the fans up either lol
