WWE News: Nobody saw it coming! Last night on Friday Night SmackDown WWE Universe illustrated with a blistering win of Jey Uso in a Fatal-4-way match to determine Roman Reigns’ Universal Championship at Clash of Champions 2020. Initially, this Fatal-4-way was placed between Matt Riddle, King Corbin, Sheamus, and Big E but E failed to perform in this Fatal-4-way match after Sheamus’ brutal attack at backstage on him, and Big E was replaced by Jey Uso later in the match.
