5 Realistic opponents for Roman Reigns after defeating Rey Mysterio

#1. Jimmy Uso - An inevitable opponent for Roman Reigns?

Jimmy Uso and Roman Reigns

WWE is taking an interesting approach with Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso. When the latter returned, he didn't fall right into line as Roman Reigns expected him to do. If anything, Jimmy Uso was rebelling, determined not to follow in his brother Jey Uso's footsteps.

But on the latest episode of SmackDown, Jimmy Uso seemed to cool down. He told Roman Reigns that while he doesn't agree with everything he says or does, they're still family.

Reigns even refused help from Jimmy Uso and got the job done against Rey Mysterio by himself. After the match, Jimmy Uso came out to congratulate Roman Reigns and raised his hand in what seemed to be a moment of unity.

Yet, there was a moment before he raised Roman Reigns' hand where he was right behind him - possibly foreshadowing him as an opponent. While WWE tried to make it seem like their relationship cooled down, it could be a way to throw fans off before things reach a boiling point.
