Following an eventful Money in the Bank 2025, the WWE universe is buzzing over Roman Reigns potential comeback with new faction after Money in the Bank 2025. As fresh storylines are set to unfold on WWE RAW and SmackDown, fans are watching closely to see how Reigns and other top stars will impact the evolving landscape.
WWE’s creative direction points toward major developments, with preparations underway for Night of Champions and opening rounds of the King & Queen of the Ring Tournaments expected soon. Excitement is high, and surprises are widely anticipated as new chapters begin for major wrestlers and factions across both WWE brands.
Unexpected Exits and Rematches Take Center Stage
LA Knight, previously a standout on SmackDown, faced disappointment after coming up short in the highly competitive men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, ultimately losing to Seth Rollins. This loss could push LA Knight to an emotional breaking point, and speculation suggests he may make an appearance on SmackDown to announce his departure from WWE. However, such a decision might only be temporary, opening the door for a dramatic return later in the season.
Meanwhile, Monday’s RAW is set to feature a highly anticipated battle, as Jey Uso prepares to defend his World Heavyweight Title against Gunther. Given their rival history and in-ring prowess, the outcome is shaping up to be a highlight. Jey Uso, also known as The YEET Master, is favored to retain his championship against The Ring General, Gunther. There is also talk that Goldberg may make a surprise return during this matchup, which would add a significant twist and fuel ongoing speculation about legends coming back to WWE.
Tensions Escalate in the Women’s Division
The Women’s Intercontinental Championship story is also far from over. Lyra Valkyria was defeated by Becky Lynch at Money in the Bank 2025 in a match that lived up to its expectations. Despite losing her title, Lyra raised Lynch’s hand in accordance with their stipulation, only to attack her afterward. This controversial ending signals that their rivalry continues, and Lyra is expected to challenge Becky Lynch for a rematch at Night of Champions, raising the stakes in the women’s division.
Roman Reigns Teased for Return With Powerful Allies
While many were expecting The Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns, to make his return at Money in the Bank 2025, he was notably absent. Rumors now indicate that the OTC—another term for Reigns—could be making his highly anticipated comeback on this week’s RAW.
Insiders suggest Reigns is set to confront Seth Rollins, fresh off his ladder match win at MITB, marking the potential beginning of a heated rivalry. The twist, however, is that Reigns is reportedly not planning to return alone. Instead, he may form a new faction to counterbalance Rollins’ group, enlisting the support of Rikishi and Jimmy Uso. According to speculation, Rikishi would step in as Reigns’ new Wiseman, while Jimmy Uso, referred to as Big Jim, would serve as the Enforcer for the OTC, giving the Tribal Chief powerful backup.
What These Developments Mean for WWE’s Future
The fallout from Money in the Bank 2025 is setting the stage for one of the most unpredictable stretches of WWE television in recent memory. With stars like LA Knight possibly stepping back and intense showdowns scheduled for both RAW and SmackDown, fans can expect continued tension and dramatic storylines in the buildup to Night of Champions. The prospect of Roman Reigns returning, potentially leading a new group alongside Rikishi and Jimmy Uso, could significantly alter the dynamics within WWE. Rivalries, alliances, and title opportunities all hang in the balance as the WWE landscape continues to evolve.
