Much to his chagrin however, Teddy Long came out with some bad news. The former SmackDown General Manager told Cesaro that he could finally have his chance against Reigns if he beat Rollins in the match.


That’s exactly what the Swiss Superman did, ending the match with a neutralizer to book a Universal Championship match for himself.
