WWE Clash in Paris will have quite a grudge match.
On August 25, 2025, WWE Raw was held at bp pulse LIVE in Birmingham, United Kingdom. This was quite a show on Netflix, and the OTC opened up the show.
Roman Reigns has been on a mission since re-emerging onto the scene. He was on hand in Birmingham, and fans were more than happy to see him come out to make his mark on the show.
Fans were blasting Roman Reigns with soccer-chant sing-song verses of his own name before his entrance music even cut off. They were also more than ready to acknowledge him and sing his song over and over again.
Once Roman Reigns got around to his promo, he had to acknowledge that it’s not old times anymore, and he’s not the same guy that he used to. To that, fans chanted, “yes you are!” Then Reigns said, “maybe I can be.” Then he brought up how Cody Rhodes predicted a year and a half ago that he would have his downfall.
Roman Reigns said that his time will come to take another shot at the championship. He then listed all the things he lost, his Bloodline, his titles, his Wise Man, so they had to find things to take from him. Once Reigns brought up Bronson Reed, Paul Heyman made his way out to address him alongside Bronson Reed with the shoe-la-fala around his neck.
Paul Heyman said that he misses Roman Reigns, and he still loves him, which is why he was out to disrespect him in Birmingham. He also said that Roman Reigns needs tough love, but he’s not man enough to beat that tough love into him at Clash in Paris, but Bronson Reed is. Then Reed had a chance to cut a promo as fans responded in disdain. He then said that he’s the Samoan that his father warned him about. Roman was surprised to hear that Reed is Samoan, as he said that “your ass belongs to me.” Then he demanded that Reed come down, acknowledge him, and apologize to fans for wasting his time.
Bronson Reed declined to come to him, so Roman Reigns met him in the aisle, and they brawled in Birmingham. They went to the ring where Reed almost stole another pair of sneakers, but Reigns stopped him. Then Bronson Reed crushed Roman with a senton before security ran down, but they didn’t do much to stop him. Then Roman landed a Superman punch to send Reed running as Reigns chased after him before the two brawled even more.
We will have to see how things go down at Clash in Paris. We will have complete coverage of the big premium live event here at Ringside News.
