WWE Raw, April 27: Roman Reigns responds to Jacob Fatu

sportsApr 27, 20263569

Roman Reigns answered Jacob Fatu's challenge on the April 27 WWE Raw at Sames Auto Arena in Laredo, Texas. The exchange set up a potential main-event singles matchup for WWE Backlash and keeps Reigns central to Raw's title picture. On the undercard Penta faced Rusev in a non-title match, and Joe Hendry closed the show with a live concert segment. Reigns' response matters because it frames Backlash as a marquee showdown and underscores his continued prominence on Raw heading into the pay-per-view.

Jacob Fatu is a fantastic promo. So much passion when he speaks and he means every word. Awesome segment with him and Roman Reigns. Roman selling Jacob's attacks and making him look dangerous was great television. Great episode overall tonight. #wweraw

Jey & Jim parroting the reason Roman never called the Tongans is good stuff. Jey talking about shot callers? Foreshadowing. Consequences? Foreshadowing. #WWERaw
