Roman Reigns to face Dolph Ziggler on WWE SmackDown
After facing his tag team partner last week, Roman Reigns is set to take on Dolph Ziggler tomorrow night.
Reigns vs. Ziggler has been announced for this week’s SmackDown. WWE is also hyping that Baron Corbin “vows to humiliate” Reigns on the episode.
Reigns challenged Corbin on SmackDown last week, but Corbin declined and Reigns faced Robert Roode instead.
Reigns fought off Corbin and Ziggler after defeating Roode. Roode hit Reigns with Corbin’s scepter and went to smash his head against a steel chair with it, but Reigns moved out of the way. He speared Roode through the barricade and left him buried under the announce table.
The Crown Coliseum in Fayetteville, North Carolina is hosting tomorrow’s SmackDown. WWE will follow up on last week’s show-closing angle where — after Daniel Bryan accepted Bray Wyatt’s challenge for another match — The Fiend attacked Bryan, dragged him under the ring, and appeared to rip out clumps of his hair.
