Roman Reigns is coming off a bad week after losing his brother. Now, he squared off against Braun Strowman at WWE Payback in a good match in their feud. Strowman started off the match quickly by chokeslamming Reigns onto a table.
Strowman looked strong at the beginning of the match. Reigns connected with a Samoan drop but only got a two count. Reigns then hit a spear but Braun kicked out of that too. Strowman was then able to hit a running powerslam but Reigns was able to kick out of that pinfall to the shock of Bruan.
However, a second running powerslam sealed the deal as Braun picked up the victory over Reigns. His win was well received by fans on social media.

Payback at WWE Payback will be on the mind of Roman Reigns this Sunday, live on WWE Network, when The Big Dog goes head-to-head with Braun Strowman in a matchup guaranteed to bring chaos and destruction.
The WWE Universe hasn’t seen a force quite like The Monster Among Men, as painfully evidenced by the hurt Strowman put on The Big Dog during the April 10 edition of Raw. The colossal Strowman not only destroyed Reigns to the point where he had to be carted into an ambulance, but the massive monster then tipped over the emergency vehicle with his adversary inside!
The former WWE Champion suffered multiple injuries from the horrific assault, including cracked ribs and a separated shoulder. Because of that, even the thought of Reigns stepping back inside the squared circle at WWE Payback is hard to believe. And trying to picture a less-than-100-percent Reigns withstanding more punishment to defeat a giant like Strowman, is almost impossible. However, if anyone among the WWE roster can recover and will himself to victory, it will be the Superstar who managed to overcome The Undertaker at WrestleMania 33.
Having faced plenty of obstacles during his WWE career, Reigns is known for eventually finding a way to triumph past most, if not, all of them. Whether he can do it in his current condition against Strowman remains to be seen. The only thing one can be sure of is that these two Superstars aren’t just determined to settle a score; they want to rip each other limb from limb.
