WWE SmackDown Preview: Big betrayal involving Roman Reigns, surprise return before WrestleMania Backlash, title change on the cards? (May 14th, 2021)

#4 Seth Rollins attacks Jimmy Uso on WWE SmackDown

Seth Rollins was not fond of Jimmy Uso's behavior on WWE SmackDown last week

As discussed earlier, Jimmy Uso returned on WWE SmackDown last week and had an immediate impact on the biggest storyline of the Blue brand. His interference in the match between Seth Rollins and Cesaro eventually led to The Swiss Cyborg picking up the victory and winning a title shot against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania Backlash.

Jimmy Uso attacked Rollins when The Architect pushed Jey Uso at ringside during his match on WWE SmackDown. A frustrated Rollins then spoke with Roman Reigns backstage and warned The Tribal Chief about Jimmy's defiance. He urged his former Shield brother to ‘take care’ of his cousin, or he will take the matter into his own hands.

Seth Rollins can attack Jimmy Uso on WWE SmackDown tonight to prove a point. After all, he believes that he is the ideal locker room leader and doesn’t like when someone disrespects him. It would be interesting to see if this angle will eventually bring Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins together for a storyline on WWE SmackDown.
