The Tribal Chief Returns: Who Will Roman Reigns Face at SummerSlam 2025?
Roman Reigns is back in WWE! Discover the top predictions for who the Tribal Chief will face at SummerSlam 2025, from tag team reunions to new challengers like Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
The Tribal Chief Returns: Who Will Roman Reigns Face at SummerSlam 2025?

After a highly anticipated return to WWE, all eyes are on Roman Reigns and his next move. The Undisputed WWE Universal Champion, who was noticeably absent from SummerSlam 2024, made a dramatic comeback on this week's Raw, saving CM Punk and Jey Uso from a beatdown by Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker. While the wrestling world buzzes with speculation, the big question remains: who will the Tribal Chief lock horns with at SummerSlam 2025?
With Seth Rollins sidelined due to a knee injury, the door is wide open for a fresh challenger to step up. Let's break down the most likely contenders for Roman Reigns at "The Biggest Party of the Summer."
Could We See a Samoan Tag Team Reunion?
A compelling possibility sees Roman Reigns rekindling his alliance with Jey Uso in a tag team showdown against the formidable duo of Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker. Reigns and Jey have a storied history, having dominated the tag team division for nearly three years. With Jey Uso now a former World Heavyweight Champion, their combined force could prove unstoppable. This pairing would not only offer a thrilling match but also play on the deep narrative established between the two cousins.
Bron Breakker: The Next Big Thing vs. The Tribal Chief?
Another intriguing scenario pits Roman Reigns against the rising powerhouse, Bron Breakker. Breakker has quickly established himself as a force to be reckoned with, and a one-on-one encounter with the Tribal Chief would be a true test of his mettle. While many might count him out, Breakker possesses the raw talent and intensity to potentially pull off a shocking upset and etch his name in WWE history.
Bronson Reed: A New Threat Emerges?
Finally, if not Bron Breakker, then Bronson Reed could very well find himself across the ring from Roman Reigns. Reed, a recent addition to Seth Rollins' team since May's Saturday Night's Main Event, is a powerful and agile competitor. Despite not yet holding a title in WWE, a high-profile match against Roman Reigns at SummerSlam could be the breakout moment he needs to establish himself as a dominant force in the company.
