Roman Reigns made an incredible return after time off due to the COVID pandemic this year. It did not take him long to win the Universal Championship following his return. At WWE TLC, he was faced with a major challenge in the form of Kevin Owens.

Owens had vowed to win the Universal Championship from Reigns at the show, or die trying. At Survivor Series, Reigns had locked horns with WWE Champion Drew McIntyre and came close to a loss before Jey Uso ran in and interfered to help The Tribal Chief.

At TLC, we saw something similar as The Head of the Table needed Uso to play a major role in the match and come back to interfere, after being taken out by The Prizefighter initially.

Uso helped Reigns distract and attack Owens at the end of the match again to help The Tribal Chief choke out Owens and retain his title at TLC.

Reigns has come across as the top heel on SmackDown and has also been difficult to beat in the past. While he has won most of his matches on his own in previous years, it begs the question why does he suddenly need help from Uso to win now?

It's agreeable that he’s playing a heel character and WWE needs to bring more heat towards the Superstar, but Reigns' history is proof he is dominant enough to get the job done himself.
