At WWE Backlash 2026, Roman Reigns defeated Jacob Fatu to retain the World Heavyweight Championship. Post match, Fatu viciously attacked “The OTC” and stood tall over his cousin.

Then on the May 11 edition of WWE Raw, “The Samoan Werewolf” assaulted Reigns and The Usos, laying out every member of The Bloodline in a brutal beatdown.

This now sets the stage for Reigns and Fatu to battle one more time over the World Heavyweight Title, potentially as soon as WWE Clash In Italy 2026 on May 31.

Here are eight potential stipulations for Roman Reigns vs. Jacob Fatu at WWE Clash In Italy 2026.

8. Last Man Standing

Over the past few weeks, Jacob Fatu has been running roughshod over his cousin Roman Reigns.

Whether it be thanks to the Tongan Death Grip or just his unbridled rage, Fatu has left “The OTC” laying on multiple occasions at this point.

After standing tall against Reigns at Backlash despite his loss, the best stipulation to choose for this rematch between the two cousins is a Last Man Standing Match.

Wanting to see who can exert their force over the other, Reigns facing Fatu in a Last Man Standing Match feels like the kind of bout that can finally put a bow on this ongoing rivalry and determine who is the better man.

7. I Quit Or I Acknowledge You Match

Jacob Fatu has added a new weapon to his arsenal inside the squared circle as of late.

“The Samoan Werewolf” has started to use the Tongan Death Grip to impressive results, laying out Roman Reigns on several occasions.

With Fatu using the Tongan Death Grip and Reigns having mastered the Guillotine Choke, both men have a submission that could set up an intriguing I Quit Match.

Considering Reigns wanting his cousin to acknowledge him, fans could see a twist on the I Quit Match at WWE Clash In Italy with an “I Acknowledge You” Match for the World Heavyweight Championship.

6. Street Fight

Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu have been hellbent on destroying one another over the past few weeks.

What started as a rivalry over the World Heavyweight Championship has gotten very personal between these two cousins.

Fatu has laid his hands on The Usos to clear the path to Reigns, so there should be no rules the next time he clashes with Reigns.

“The OTC” battling “The Samoan Werewolf” in a Street Fight feels like the kind of unhinged brawl that this rivalry is meant to have at this time.

5. Strap Match

The brutality that has been on display between Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu has been palpable as of late.

Wanting to make things completely out of hand, WWE could have a match where both men are tied to one another throughout.

Reigns and Fatu squaring off in a Strap Match would bring the intensity that seems appropriate for this stage of their feud.

WWE Clash In Italy 2026 should see the final battle between Reigns and Fatu, which could be a Strap Match to truly settle the score between these two cousins.

4. Stretcher Match

With Jacob Fatu laying out his cousin multiple weeks in a row, it could be taking its toll on Roman Reigns.

The next attack by “The Samoan Werewolf” could lead to Reigns being carted out of an arena on a stretcher.

That could lead to these two stars settling this score and determining who is the best by facing off in a Stretcher Match.

Wanting to beat down the other until they can be out on a stretcher and carted up the ramp, Reigns and Fatu can truly determine who is the rightful World Heavyweight Champion at WWE Clash In Italy 2026.

3. Loser Leaves WWE

After their battle at WWE Backlash 2026, Jacob Fatu not only attacked Roman Reigns, but also took out multiple officials and referees.

This led to Raw General Manager Adam Pearce stating that he is thinking of suspending Fatu or even potentially firing him.

However, Reigns was the first to say that if Fatu did not acknowledge him that it could be his cousin’s last night in WWE.

With these statements, it could lead to this Reigns vs. Fatu rematch at Clash In Italy 2026 being a Loser Leaves WWE match.

2. Tribal Combat

The story between Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu has been about acknowledgement within the Samoan family dynasty.

Reigns has discussed that there should be respect amongst their family and if Fatu is not willing to show it to his cousins, then no one outside of their familial ties will do so either.

In the past, “The OTC” has exerted his dominance over his fellow Bloodline members Jey Uso and Solo Sikoa in a Tribal Combat Match.

Bringing back this signature stipulation, Reigns and Fatu could decide who deserves the moniker of “Tribal Chief” and to be World Heavyweight Champion at the WWE Clash In Italy 2026 premium live event.

1. Hell In A Cell

Another stipulation that Roman Reigns is no stranger to throughout his career is the Hell In A Cell.

With Jacob Fatu being an unhinged savage, it makes sense for “The OTC” to want to lock his cousin inside a cage of this stature.

In the past, Reigns famously beat Jey Uso into submission and acknowledgement of “The Tribal Chief” in Hell In A Cell.

Reigns and Fatu battling inside the Cell at WWE Clash In Italy 2026 will make for a very compelling battle in Turin, Italy on May 31.
