Edge took on Roman Reigns at Money in the Bank this Sunday. A win almost seemed in the bag until Seth Rollins interfered and helped his former Shield brethren defend the Universal Championship. Just when Reigns felt like it was over, Cena walked out, signaling more trouble for the Head of the table in the future.

During a conversation with Sports Illustrated, Triple H revealed that he was impressed by Roman Reigns and his reaction to Cena’s return, going so far as to call him the biggest star in the entire industry.
“Roman is the biggest star in WWE, he’s the biggest star in the industry. He perfected his craft at a really hard time to do so with no fans. He put so much into his character work, and his reaction to Cena was as powerful as the moment itself.
“Watching that, I couldn’t help but think back to how long he’s been doing this and some of the tougher times he’s been through. Right now, he’s performing on a whole other level. He’s at the point where he is no longer thinking about the character, he just is.”
Cena laid out a challenge to Reigns for the Universal Champion on RAW this week. It has long been reported that this match will headline SummerSlam and now the storyline has been laid for what could go on to be the biggest match of the year.
