Roman Reigns faced Braun Strowman on SmackDown and Keith Lee wasn’t pleased with one moment
Roman Reigns brought out his heel nature on WWE SmackDown again as he took on Braun Strowman.
The WWE Universal Champion was out to defend his gold while Strowman was keen on reclaiming the title.
It was a crazy affair with both men using all their moves in hopes of getting the advantage. However, the Big Dog used a low blow to get an advantage and then brought out a guillotine choke to pick up the submission win.
This was a surprise as Reigns normally uses a spear as his finisher. However, there was more to come from the champion.
He attacked Strowman repeatedly with a steel chair with Jey Uso watching. This was something that caught Keith Lee’s eye and the Limitless One called out Reigns.
“Listen…..that was a different @WWERomanReigns than I remember. I don’t support all that extra with the chair.”
Listen…..that was a different @WWERomanReigns than I remember. I don't support all that extra with the chair.
But shoutout to @BraunStrowman. You got slept, but that's nothing to be ashamed of. Way to fight, but I hope your recovery is good for #WWERaw.

Reigns has been a different monster since turning heel, and it is safe to say he doesn’t care about what others think of his actions.
Strowman out
Strowman was also out thanks to Reigns’ submission and Lee claimed this was nothing to be ashamed of. The Monster Among Men talked the talk before the clash but it was a huge surprise seeing the submission win for Reigns.
The attacking of Strowman was meant as a message for Uso. However, Reigns’ cousin also attacked the champion after the match with the chair.
Things then took a turn for the worse as Reigns bounced back and hit Uso to finish off the show.
Lee and Reigns clashed at Survivor Series a while back when the Limitless One was a rising star. The Big Dog was a different character then and praised Lee.
However, it is unlikely Reigns would have glowing words for any WWE star given how he has become the best heel in the business.
