Welcome to the Royal Rumble review for January 29, 2022.
Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship.
Seth comes out to the Shield theme dressed in his old outfit. Reigns was rattled, and Rollins used it to get in alot of offense. It ended with Rollins powerbombing Reigns through the table and hitting The Stomp for two count. Reigns unloaded on Seth, the reminder of the past making him furious. A spear was countered by a Pedigree. Reings locked in a Guillotine and refused to let go after Rollins grabbed the ropes, causing a DQ
Seth Rollins won by DQ, Reings is still Universal Champion
