LA Knight challenges Roman Reigns for title shot after SummerSlam

"

World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns has well and truly made his peace with Seth Rollins after defeating him at SummerSlam, outright calling him “my brother” before allowing the fine folks in Des Moines, Iowa at Monday Night Raw this week to sing his song. Before he could talk about what’s next, a familiar theme hit the loudspeakers. LA Knight. YEAH! He congratulated the champ on taking care of business all by himself in Minneapolis but he’s “still a fraud” because he’s been ducking Knight for months now. He, too, wants another crack at The Tribal Chief but he wants what Rollins was given — a fair shot, with no interference from The Bloodline. And they can do it whenever. Reigns fired back by saying LA has no claim to a shot at his title because he simply hasn’t done enough to earn it. He beat his cousins in a six-man tag team match, sure, but he hasn’t won a tournament, or a battle royal, or any match big enough to call himself the number one contender. And there will be no more bitching and moaning to title shots. Those days are over. At least that’s what Reigns said. Knight fired back that he’ll do whatever he has to. He’s the first guy to step to the champion following SummerSlam. We’ll see if that’s the direction they go, but it certainly appeared to be what they’ll do. "The only right answer is YEAH" 💯@RealLAKnight has challenged the OTC! pic.twitter.com/ZckxyfkQvF — WWE (@WWE) August 4, 2026 Get complete Raw results and coverage of this week’s entire episode by clicking here.
