After leading Team Hogan to victory, Roman Reigns is all set to face King Corbin on SmackDown. Corbin has been on Reigns radar since the day he caused Reigns from winning the Intercontinental Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura. Corbin made the situation even bigger when he attacked the Big Dog after WWE’s Backstage show. Both the wrestlers recently met each other in the 10-men Tag Team match on Crown Jewel, but they were given less chance to come face-to-face. In the upcoming blue band show, the two will face each other for the first time in a singles match.
