We are officially on the road to WWE SummerSlam 2023. The Biggest Party of this Summer will happen on August 5 in Detroit. The Triple H-led creative team will be booking SummerSlam for the second time. Last year, Roman Reigns headlined SummerSlam in an epic Last Man Standing match against Brock Lesnar.
Roman Reigns is likely to main event WWE SummerSlam 2023 as well. His opponent is yet to be announced. In this listicle now, we will look at the top three contenders who can challenge The Tribal Chief for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship on August 5.
1. Roman Reigns vs Jey Uso is likely to happen at WWE SummerSlam 2023
Jey Uso made history by becoming the first WWE Superstar to pin Roman Reigns since 2019. Uso accomplished the feat at Money in the Bank during the Bloodline Civil War tag team match in London.
In 2013, Jey Uso was the first person to pin Roman Reigns.
In 2023, Jey Uso became the first person to pin Roman Reigns in more than 3 years.

Since Jey Uso has a lot of history with Roman Reigns, it should not be a surprise if WWE announces a match for the biggest party of the summer this Friday on SmackDown itself. It should be a memorable clash between the Bloodline stars.
2. Roman Reigns vs Jimmy Uso
There is an outside chance that Jimmy Uso will get the first shot at Roman’s WWE Undisputed Universal Championship. Jimmy Uso was the first among the twin brothers to turn his back on The Tribal Chief.
Kevin Owens believes it should be either Jey or Jimmy Uso that dethrones Roman Reigns.

Hence, Jey would not mind allowing his brother to have a go at Roman Reigns first. Jimmy can promise Jey that if he becomes the champion, he will get the first shot.
3. Roman Reigns vs Solo Sikoa
This is a WrestleMania main event caliber match but WWE could pull off this match at SummerSlam 2023 itself to make it the biggest match in the premium live event’s history.ย Solo Sikoa has stayed loyal to The Bloodline, but after the loss at Money in the Bank, he could turn on Roman Reigns, and perhaps, The Usos can allow him to challenge The Head of the Table.
