Rumor Roundup: Original Plans For Roman Reigns At Hell In A Cell, WWE Interested In AEW Wrestlers, More

1) The Original Plans For Roman Reigns At Hell In A Cell

Roman Reigns faced off against Jey Uso at the Hell in a Cell PPV. This was a Hell in a Cell match. According to Dave Meltzer in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE originally had different plans for Roman at the event.

Meltzer says that Roman was originally supposed to be in a fatal 4-way match at the event for the Universal Championship.

This match would have included The Fiend, Braun Strowman, and one more person. These plans were changed after Roman’s feud with Jey extended. Here is what Meltzer wrote:

The original plan for Reigns vs. Uso was just one meeting as the original Hell in a Cell booking was going to be a four-way with Reigns, Fiend, Strowman and a fourth person, which explains the Reigns-Fiend tease that was never followed up on at that time

My Take:

  • The fatal 4-way would have been good but I loved Roman vs Jey. I am glad that they went forward with those plans instead.
