Last week's WWE SmackDown ended with Adam Pearce becoming the #1 Contender to Roman Reigns' Universal Championship at Royal Rumble. Pearce has done a fine job as an on-screen authority figure in the WWE over the past few months, but his in-ring return came as a shocker for the fans.

Pearce, a 5-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion and NWA Hall of Famer, now has a lucrative Universal title match against Roman Reigns. However, there could be one big twist in the storyline.

During a recent Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer stated that there is a possibility of WWE changing Roman Reigns' Royal Rumble opponent to Kevin Owens before the PPV.

"It's possible that they'll change it back to Kevin Owens because it seems like a strange match to make; because if they do that, it pretty much tells you that they literally have no ideas at all. I'm not ruling out that they'll go back to Kevin Owens."

Adam Pearce is quite an adept in-ring worker, and a match against Roman Reigns could exceed all the expectations. However, there is still a possibility of WWE changing it all up.

Would you like WWE to stick with Pearce vs. Reigns or change the match in the upcoming weeks?
