Roman Reigns set for major title defenses in Mexico and US

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns is preparing for a series of high-profile title defenses this fall. A luchador tournament, featuring competitors from WWE and AAA, is currently underway to determine a number one contender. Reports indicate that Penta is the backstage favorite to win the tournament and challenge Reigns for the championship during the September 14 episode of Raw in Mexico City.

Following the potential Mexico City defense, WWE is reportedly discussing a match between Reigns and LA Knight for the Money in the Bank event on October 10 in New Orleans. Internal sentiment suggests a “strong feeling” that this matchup will occur. Additionally, Reigns is already advertised for Survivor Series: WarGames in Houston on November 28.
