Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns will collide again after three years

The last time Seth Rollins faced Roman Reigns in a singles competition was back in 2019. The duo faced off on the October 11, 2019, episode of SmackDown, with Rollins winning via DQ.

Reigns and Rollins know each other quite well, courtesy of their past association as Shield members. The stable dominated the WWE roster during its early run in 2013.

In 2014, Rollins turned on Reigns and Jon Moxley, thus ending the alliance. All three members went on to win world titles. Rollins and Reigns have since become two of the biggest stars in the company.

Last year, Roman Reigns opened up about a possible future match with Seth Rollins:

"It could be a really interesting situation, give us an audience, give us a ring and we'll make something special happen. So put this scenario in a location like Wrestlemania or Summerslam, a big PPV, no questions asked. I mean this alchemy, this striving for greatness, the ambition for the best of both, has always been there. This is what has always made everything special. So it's easy, like an insurance policy. When in doubt, throw him and me together," said Reigns. [H/T Wrestling World]
