It turns out that WWE's biggest spoilers aren't coming from the dirt sheets or other websites, but the arenas themselves.
WWE will be hosting their Roadblock pay-per-view at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh later this year, but there are still a few Monday Night RAW's between now and then. Official card announcements haven't been released yet, but PPG Paints Arena jumped the gun a bit on advertising for the event earlier this month and revealed that Universal Champion Kevin Owens would be taking United States Champion Roman Reigns in the main event.
The arena jumped the gun once gain earlier today when they posted an advertisement for the pay-per-view on their Facebook page that revealed another match featuring Seth Rollins and Kevin Owen's best friend Chris Jericho (via GiveMeSport). One of the big mysteries was who Seth Rollins would be facing since he recently lost another title shot to Kevin Owens. Now that mystery has been solved, but not the way WWE likely wanted. They've since removed the post from their page.
At this rate, fans will find out the whole card without having to watch one December episode of RAW, which depending on your viewpoint of the 3-hour show is either a blessing or a curse.
Other likely bouts for the event are Charlotte vs. Bayley, as Charlotte turned on her RAW teammate at Survivor Series and delivered a thorough beating. It could also be a triple threat match with Sasha Banks involved. There will also be a tag match most likely featuring The New Day against either Enzo and Cass or The Club.
As for Rollins, he teamed up with his former SHIELD brothers at Survivor Series to put AJ Styles throughout an announcers table, but for now, that was probably a one-off, as Ambrose and Reigns are still in the middle of ongoing storylines. Rollins will likely attempt to get his title privileges back by beating Jericho, which would annoy Owens to no end. It's also rumored that a big face turn is in the works for Rollins, which would work extremely well with his current "Redesign, Rebuild, Reclaim" schtick.
Roadblock hits WWE Network on December 18.
