Roman Reigns vs. Drew McIntyre set for WrestleMania 35

Roman Reign’s first singles match since last October will take place at WrestleMania 35.

He formally accepted the challenge from Drew McIntyre tonight on Raw. McIntyre came out and brought up the distinction between Roman Reigns and “Joe”, asking if he has put his family through enough already, saying that they’ll have to watch him lose.

Roman then came out and accepted McIntyre’s challenge. He also said that the next message wouldn’t be coming from Roman and warned him to never bring up his family or friends again.

This will be Roman’s first singles match since October 1, when he defeated Dolph Ziggler on Monday Night Raw. He made his return to the ring on March 10 after his leukemia went back into remission, teaming with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins to defeat Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre at Fastlane.

WrestleMania 35 will take place on April 7 at Metlife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
